    That's only 0.06 pigs per Hectare or 1 pig per 16 hectares of cold, steep, wet, wind swept isolated country.

    And no roads to drive the Hilux around on

    Could be hard hunting.

    The fishing won't be much better either ...... gotta go 12Nms off shore before you even allowed to get your line wet.

    Cheers

    Farrk that no fishing count me out

    Good on ya Moonhunt

    Your obviously a thinking man.

    Thinking of us poor tax payers and cutting the cost to what's obviously bloody sharp Mates Rates.

    Although I can't see many trees to keep your Tub or anything else for that matter warm with.

    Cheers

    Yep that's more than 50% and not a cent to the toxin company

    That would employ people, retail can make a bit in sales, maybe even set up a processing plant and feed some folks

    Here is what you don't know , Stewart Island is in the firing line for poisoning and all animals are to go ,then comes the total band on the fishing around the islands. $50 million is the plan and if other people will donate the figure will go higher = More details will follow

    Where the hell have you been 2SK? I will be in for the forum cull. Might take a couple of sleeping bags though as I reckon it would be bloody cold down there.

    They don't consider anything logical , I have been watching how big boys play lately with the motorway going through ours, you would think money was printed at will
