Forum Hunt - ideas?

[Dougie]

Heya lads and ladies,

I was really very disappointed when the Nelson Forum Hunt fell over... I know we have the BOP Hunt/Fish coming up in December but I'd be keen for looking at another group get together and perhaps we should plan early so people can actually pencil it in!

Does anyone have ideas? Is January a good time? What do we want to hunt and where?

So far I have had some really great experiences meeting some of the 'regulars' on the forum and would like to continue the trend.

On a side note, I am always up for tagging along with other people and learn quick. I can travel probably only within the north island at the moment as funds won't stretch for a ferry ticket but buses can take me almost anywhere around here. I'm really keen (I think you guys know that) and a bit lost here in Wellies, I'm looking forward to widening my circle of friends and of course getting out there in the bush!! Wellington lads, don't be shy.

Anyway..I digress. Forum Hunt in January, anyone??

If you are keen to drive to wairoa I will give you my gps with spots marked for camp and a place that should be loaded with goats also a few deer lurk around, you will have to sus out permits though.

Tobes would you be keen to attend a Forum Hunt?

[Rushy]

Toby don't forget that bet with the doctor. You will be out there yourself (even if I have to carry you up the bloody hill myself)

[Rushy]

Dougie I would be a starter for anything you organize.

[Toby]

Well Im not so sure know, another doctor came in saying dont get your hopes up, so I have told my mates I may not be coming but since I own most of the gear they thought they couldn't go, being the good cunt that I am I loaned them the gear. Also may have to loan a rifle but I trust them(Have FAL). I still have some hope although not as much as I did before the 2nd doc told me.

Yeah, I will go just it would be after April next year, and since im not going to school next year and instead am going to start work(btw people will work for food and accommodation ) jks, or am I? any way yeah it would have to tie in with that and be somewhere close to a town where I can get there by bus, I cant drive I know im hopeless.

[Rushy]

Toby, the power of positive thinking is a bloody amazing thing so here is the go. Every day from now on when you look at yourself in the mirror you look yourself in the eye and tell yourself that you are going hunting with your mates in January.

Google Earth kicked my ass last weekend, a lot of growth has happened since the photos were taken!
