Panning for gold!

Haven't found any gold yet despite sieving through about quarter of a ton of gravel!! We've had a delivery of half a ton of new gravel, my idea of just using the old stuff, after the composted leaves and stuff (tons from the Hawthorn tree) have been sieved out, was vetoed by SWMBO. I must admit that I had to agree when I saw the state of the old gravel piling up! She is wise, don't know why I disagree in the first place HAHAHAHAHAHA
I know it's August and I have a coat on, it's raining and not too hot!!

Stuck an extra photo in from the 15th, VJ day, when I attended a short ceremony at the Gloucester war memorial.
