Reporter: Does Mr.Brown live here? Mrs. Brown: Oh! yes. Reporter: Is he in? Mrs. Brown: No, he went somewhere. Reporter: Is it true that he owns nine pound nugget of gold? Mrs. Brown: (Realising the joke) Yes! Indeed. Reporter: Can I see the place where he found it? Mrs. Brown: I'm afraid not because Mr.Brown objects in as much as it is strictly private. Reporter: Is the place far? Mrs. Brown: No, it is quite near and convenient. Reporter: How many years has Mr.Brown been digging the hole? Mrs. Brown: Just about two years. Reporter: Is the hole deep? Mrs. Brown: Quiet so... Reporter: At about what time Mr.Brown starts digging? Mrs. Brown: Oh, he does his digging mostly at night. Reporter: Does he work hard on it? Mrs. Brown: You bet....and how he perspires. Reporter: Is Mr.Brown the first to dig? Mrs. Brown: He thought he was.... Reporter: How do you know there was someone ahead of him? Mrs. Brown: I'm in good position to say so, because I own the place. Reporter: Oh, I see, but you sold the place to Mr.Brown? Mrs. Brown: No, but for present he has the legal title to the site. Reporter: Has Mr.Brown any helper when he works? Mrs. Brown: Yes, I work under him.... Reporter: When do you think Mr.Brown will sell the place? Mrs. Brown: I don't think so because he enjoys working on it. Reporter: Can I see the nine pound nugget of gold? Mrs. Brown: Yes, certainly... (She showed him the nine pound baby boy...
