    Have just been notified that the forestry is closed to all access. Also understand that DOC has cancelled all hunting permits. I would say if you are found on DOC land hunting in the current political climate you can say good by to your firearm license and any chance of getting it back ( Not fit and proper). Remember there is a Roar coming in about 12 months and there should be more deer around.

    Had something pop up on facebook it said:

    Our grandparents were called up to fight 2 world wars. We have been called up to wash our hands and sit on the couch, DON`t FUCK THIS UP.

    In my mind that pretty much says it.

    I hear you @Phil_H and I plan to stay home.....Although the wife would rather I went hunting for a couple of weeks! I work in an essential industry, and there are about 700+ people at work. And there is NO WAY to avoid contact with them. So the wife's view, and the reason that she is worried is that I'm going to work each day mixing with hundreds of people and potentially bringing back the virus into our household. Where if I was in the bush by myself there would be no risk of contracting it...... How do you debate that one???? As there is some logic in it.

    There isnt any logic to it but thats the way it is I guess. My wife is currently classed as essential and works inside a prison. She risks bringing it home and is an anstham sufferer too. The worlds gone mad but we all have to do what we must in this case.
