    I did, in the same trip, fall into a hole up to my waist for their entertainment I really impressed considering we had just met 15 minutes before hand

    I still cottoned onto you mate. I'd sit on a crate of Waikato and chew the fat with you around a camp fire any day.

    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
