    Yep so what we do is we take our suppressed 9mm's out (in 3 shades of black) and put on our sharp suits (in the other 12 shades of black) then sit at our trendy Thorndon cafe and when we get our biodegradable macchiato cups lined up in an architecturally pleasing fashion we can use them as a bipod to pop off the huge reds that live in the town belt just behind the PM's residence

    After we put the firearms away we get on our pointiest of pointy shoes (in the other shade of black that only Wellingtonians can see) and go see some utterly incomprehensible art show which speaks deeply to the yawning chasm between the soul and desire, all whilst sipping on a one-off keg brew of half-double-wheat-tinged-hoppy-black-IPA which has been flavoured with tincture of beard grooming oil

    We casually mention to our friends that our bespoke artisinal homekill butcher will be smoking our venison with a new flavour he told us about last week called "Essence of Wanky Pretentiousness" which should blend seamlessly with the Elderflower oil and crushed Saffron that we usually favour

    After that we pull on our black turtleneck jersey, jump into our diesel Citreon and get home to slip into our high thread count sheets next to our vegan wives




    I think that should about cover it

    We have had deer in close to residential here in Nelson as well....the problem is not lack of hunters the problem is not legally being able to hunt them due to council land/forestry/private land/hand wringers that will call for the AOS at first sight of anyone who looks like a hunter etc etc.

    Geeze Wellington’s changed since I was a lad! All we saw were, transvestites, fargots, Korean fishermen and a bucket fountain? Oh and once a year a bloody awesome Street Race! Eastbourne always been the place of fuel bunkers, wankers and private schools

    Interesting ...as a young fella growing up in Porirua we would hunt goats over eastborne way,and always get a few.....weren’t too many deer,but occasionally we would take one.Worked as a Shepard for ken gray on his grays road property,in pauahatanui,the one on pukerua bay,and the one up the ”piecock” Hill.......pigs,deer,and goats were always there.I would always take the 303 during any muster,as the dogs would always flush something out.

    For anyone living in Whitby,back side of Porirua,behind Waitangirua,there used to be an old trig station up there,looking over the now police college,we would hunt that area (as it was still lands and survey stuff)and over to whitby for pig(4 legged type).....never had a problem getting any.That country over eastborne way has a,ways been good country for our introduced species,not surprised they are having issues.

    They ate my bloody tomatoes last year after leaving them alone for thirty odd years. Plenty of deer around this year but I'm planting tomatoes in a different area this year. I hear poachers some nights up in the creek bed and bush above my house .
