    That is a good area in that second photo Dundee. You and PT should camp just off that
    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

    Only the dumb bastard that lost his knife. Best you get back up there and retrace your footsteps until you find it.

    Oh, yeh righto then. Never got that far before opening my mouth, inserting my foot and chewing vigorously. Still Dundee is a former soldier so should know to check his kit before heading off. If you read. This Dundee then drop and give me twenty for that wee fuck up. Next time you will be confined to a kitchen full of vegetables.

    Then I will reduce the charge to a lesser "Conduct to the prejudice of good hunter preparedness". You will probably get off with Confinement to vege patch for a week.

    Back up "Dry Creek" today had a stag roaring to the left of the waterfall but couldn't coax him down had to get off the hills for milking. I'll be back before the Easter madness in the Ruahines.
