Back when men were men When I was young and especially first started going to the local pubs I think I took meeting and knowing a lot of those old hard buggers for granted. I used to think they were all stuck in the past.
I wish I could recount half of the stories I was told about our back yard. For some reason as I get older I find the history of our local valleys and South Westland more and more interesting. Not just the hunting but some of the gold and mining history is amazing.
