Peter's Story
I HAVE BEEN MINING AT LIGHTNING RIDGE SINCE 1993. I USED TO COME TO THE RIDGE AS A YOUNG BOY AND VISIT MY DAD MINING HERE.I THEN CAUGHT THE OPAL BUG.I SPENT SOME TIME IN COOPER PEDY AND I AM OFFERING MY STOCK HERE.I AM NOW BASED AT THE RIDGE SO I CAN SHIP MY STOCK WITH SEDA OPALS WHICH IS RUN BY MY DAD.WE BOTH HAVE THE SAME INITALS [PAUL AND PETER] SO WE CAN ACCEPT CHEQUES MADE OUT TO P SEDAWIE. I HOPE YOU ENJOY MY STOCK.REGARDS PETER
