Got a heap of Verkerks snack sticks, salami and some ham.

Will probably depend how many demerits are left on Munseys licence how long it takes him [emoji16]

I reckon it should be the obvious option. It's pretty open and a long gentle gradient. Just whack a tunnel through to Hanmer at the top.

Kinda glad there is school today. The excitement levels are rising rapidly in one gadgette, so don't worry, the sound is not another cyclone coming. Oh, wait, it's worse. Have found some salted mackerel but the only berley I've found is pellet stuff. Will see what I can find when we fill up in Nelson.

Yup. When you reach Bluff you've gone a little too far.
