    Well done John.
    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

    Toby wouldn't it be better to take 2SK up on his offer?

    if I am correct then at this stage confirmed are you, me, 2SK, Mucko and BushHunter. Possibles are Phillip, Toby and Gibo. I am relaxed as to numbers as this is a great way for us to get to know one another.

    Ha ha ha ha I know that feeling. In my house I wear the trousers but my wife picks them out for me. On another note you suggested meeting in Matamata but wouldn't it be shorter for you for us to meet on the south side of Rotorua? I would have thought that you would cut across country through Mangakino and Tokoroa.

    Hi Rushy, that camp ground you showed me might be a great place to have all the boys camp at, use that as the base. If theres room I'd be keen to catch up with Mucko and 4 shot kill ,opps I mean 2 shot kill.... And of course you Rushy..... and all the other retrobates..

    At this stage I reckon we will all fit on my road end Mohawk660 and that will put us right in amongst it. You are as welcome as a drink to a thirsty man.
