    He nui to ngaromanga, he iti to putanga.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    So a small group of seven of us turned up to have a beer and a chat. 300winmag got there first and was into some batters chips when I arrived. We caught up on how having his kidney stone removed was somewhat like pulling a leg of ham out of your nostril and then Duckdog arrived, then ishoo10s. That was us for a while and then northdude and a couple of others. I have been to half a dozen or so of these get togethers over the years and I have to say that I really like catching up with people that I seldom see but whose company I enjoy. We should do more of it. Beaker the tab needs to be paid before Friday, I hope you can make it in time as I used your car as collateral and gave the towies your address.
    ishoot10s, Beaker, Rusky and 1 others like this.
    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

    You, me and Northdude would be happy chappies if it was there. For others though it would be quite a stretch.
