    We can walk down here, just the issue of the knuckles dragging on the ground when we do. Do usually walk for about 6 hours, but it would be about 12 hours if we had to walk in too.

    Lake Elsmere killed my gumboots

    Random side note - if anyone in the Chch area could help out, I have a friend who's missus is doing a taxidermy course and would very much love some Plovers and even Magpies to try her hand at. Not required to be gutted and a clean/inconspicuous wound would be better. PM me if you ever fall into this category

    One more today. First shot was 100 odd meters then he flew about 100m and landed, so I stalked closer since it was a bit windy to shoot that far. Got to about 50m and nailed him. Scopes done better then I thought. Holding its zero well for a $100 scope off trademe, nearly been a year now.

    I am impressed. Now all you need to do is invite Angus around
    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
