    Won't be able to make it to this now, work commitments have come up at the last minute. Thanks for organising another event. Hope to make it to one soon.

    Hey El, sorry I can't make it, I am working Saturday 1800-0400 so I would get no sleep if I came. Will see if my mate is still keen to go.

    Mate if you want for lunch on Saturday, I could bring some beef sausages from a beast I put in the freezer a fortnight ago. How many would you think you need?
    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

I went and got that bottle of French Ros'e for the end of the day once guns are away cheers

    There are 9 sausages in a pack so I will bring three pack's. I'm a bit worried about the wine, they tell me it isn't made from barley, oats or hops.

    OK guys so here is an old bush bashers take on this game. I met up with El B and the guys at Parakai as arranged. First impressions were that they were a decent bunch of average Joes from all walks of life just like me. After making sure everyone was there we headed off up South head to the property and circled the wagons by the barn. It was at this stage the boys got their toys out to ready them for the day. Holy fucken shit I thought. Where are the fucken rag head Taliban hiding? Take it from an old hunter there wasn't one of these things that you would be happy to hook a billy off a fire with. Serious weaponry was on display. I won't spoil the write up that the others will no doubt do but there was a clear winner on the day. Even had a blat on a couple of king hitters myself and went home and told the Missus that she needs to get some fish net stockings and head on up to K Road so a man can invest in a serious shooter. I won't tell you what she told me I could do to myself! Anyway great day and as big Arnie said in The Terminator, I'll be back. Oh and we'll done Matt, you kicked arse man!
