    Two sleeps to go!

    Can't wait till the Wallaby comp down south, starting Friday. Still have to organise a little bit of gear but mostly sorted.


    Are we there yet?

    Only one sleep now GM. Good skills with the Skippy skonking
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    What colour is sleep? Think it's a little furry nocturnal creature, now believed to be extinct, ... at least round here. I'm also on orders to bring a dose of meat home.

    Will give it a crack. Be limited to my phone but it does have a 32GB card in it at least.

    223 and 12g going for this trip. Last year was the 243 and 12g, both proved adequate for a nupty like me. Now the 223 is suppressed and shooting pretty sweetly it will be better. Unfortunately a little low on the Hornady training ammo but should have enough.

    And I could walk into a room with people trying to lose weight, and say I can eat heaps and not put on any weight,
    Mmm, bring me some wallaby
