    na massive -boys are hopin to get the new motor in my truck today so shell be good for a wee while longer .Missus car will be repaired .see if ic an get daughter to show me how to post my photos on here sometime today. actually its bloody good lesson to all -be bloody careful yourselves fellas.
    another one of our shootin crew is headed to greymoth today to pick up a new boat&motor so Ive given him the big heads up.
    to all you big fat canadas who like to sit out or range on ellesmere and laugh -be warned Im about to mark your cards OK-

    son somewhat ironically pointed out last night -my last two major expeditions to me homeland "the coast have resulted in motor vehicle carnage.
    ah well slept bugger all last night with flashbacks but apart from minor aches and pains Im fairly ok. a bit of mechanical work today on the truck will sort things out.

    Must be some fairly late nights being put in on final preparation for duck shooting gear eh ,or are you the grasb the gear outa the shed ,into truck with gun and dog and were off!

    me -I cant wait.

    Dealing with bent things is expensive. Not much better when things get pinched.

    aye i cant complain-no point cause no bugger listens anyhow
    out to lake ellesmere for a looksee (read mallard or two).no luck but hell I almost shot me bolt to see 300+canada geese and mallards lift of the end of one of our favoured hunting spots.
    time to get cunning -an all out waterborne assault is in the planning cause cunning buggers like to cruise out about 300m and settle on the lake whilst watching green things with firesticks make dicks of themselves!!

    My missus hits me with the "I need a new car" statement this morning. Must have the get up and go to pull the horse float. Apparently the Rexton is starting to have niggles and the mechanic she has taken it to has told her it is going to start costing big time over the next little while. I have told her just to ride the bloody horse everywhere as that will solve both the transport and the must pull a float problem. I bet she gets a new car though.

    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

    now gentlemen having survived 36yrs of married life ,that now includes two written off cars and a f...d truck ,I have, on reflection, decided the safest response to any wifes statements is
    .......wait for it ...dont bloody anticipate the word of command.........(for R93s benefit)


    YES DEAR
