    @Shootm Ha. We discussed that. He said that he wished he had worn his shorts. I reckon he has a bung thermostat.

    You should write a book, it could be bound in dry wrinkly skin stuff, and come with instructions to be read at maximum volume for the hard of hearing. Great read.

    Accidental hangover Gibo. How does that happen? Did you fall into a vat of Waikato and try to drink your way out?

    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
