So, back to the point of this thread … “fondest memories”

This is a piccie from the first Gold Mine trip I was on with UCET in 2006. There is (as always) a story behind every picture. This trip saw the first time John used someone else’s bag (without them knowing) to carry around his “belongings”. On this occasion, he had stuffed his lunch into Doug’s bag without telling him. Doug then, of course, unwittingly carried it around with him all day until we finally sat down for a (late) lunch. Having been in the mine already, we had come out in a long procession and, if memory serves, Doug was at the rear. By the time he had caught us up and by the time John had persuaded him that he has surreptitiously hidden his lunch his in bag (and got it out), the rest of us were ready to leave. Doug, having had little opportunity to lunch, was determined to make a cuppa from his flask, plonked himself down, and still being vexed from carrying John’s additional weight all day, announced (can’t remember his exact words) “I’m having my fucking lunch aren’t I” and made us all wait (you can see the feet of one of us (im)patiently waiting and the photo is taken from an elevated standing position.

From then, it became a regular occurrence that other people’s bags were filled with “stuff” for them to carry around unawares (usually rocks).

Not got any pics as yet, not been with the team for long but still made to feel part of the group. Can't wait to get out and in to a cave or mine.
