  1. #1

    Default New lad from Sweden!

    Well hello folks! I am a young lad who enjoys the outdoors due to various activities that i have as hobbies. For example prospecting, metal detecting, rock hounding and so forth.

    I am also a student in the field of gemmology but also studied a bit about gold smithing.

    My general interests also involve: Archaeology, geology, women, different beliefs, psychology and a bit more.

    Hope to see ya around!

    Owl girl,
    Nice to meet ya!

    Alaska eh? That's.. About on the other side of the globe!

    If you are thinking of starting prospecting I'd suggest you read:
    http://detectorstuff.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=229

    Yes young lad, that means, in my case around 19.

    P.S I know they are good hobbies, otherwise I'd been doing them for so long that I have.

    Icemancometh,
    Its due to the info I can here.

    Rick,
    Cheers mate. And yes for the location I've done well.
    There isn't really any bigger gold here like in i.e. Australia.

    Where I live there is some placer gold, which my wife and I have panned for. We've panned a bit in Alaska and my wife did much better than I. I'm hoping she'll give me lessons.

    Haha, better start praying now then.
    Think of it like this, you've got someone to teach you. I didn't.

    Where I live now there is placer gold all over the place due to a ancient river flowing through here after the last ice age I want to recall.

    Watch out for the Fin. Apparently he has something against knives made in Sweden.

    Owl_Girl,
    No problem.

    Ken,
    Thanks mate.

    FinallyME,
    The fins not only talk wierd they have something against Swedish knives?
    I can understand that, they have lost quality over the years.
    Mora used to be good back in the days.

    This is not good. No, sir. This is not good at all! The last thing we needed was a Swede to talk down on Mora knives. We'll never hear the end of this one.
