    Great yarn, although I have a query. Tawhine…I’m not familiar with. The closest I could find on Google was one vague page which mentioned ‘dense thickets of Manuka’. The next closest is Tarwhine which is an Australian fish

    He means Tauhinu/cottonwood. "tar-winny" is an old farts name for it. https://www.nzpcn.org.nz/flora/speci...-leptophyllus/

    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
