I'm sure others near where ever you live will do the same.

Also, like it or hate, there is a bit of dodgy shit talked on forums, and if you don't have experience, get someone who you trust to evaluate the well meaning advice before you go rushing off to buy stuff.

Lastly, by all means take a beer, but don't sacrifice what you should be taking for the sake of our piss up in the bush culture. It's bull shit.

Cheers

This chap is onto it - take up his offer if you can, I can give a great testimony for the generosity and good old honesty from Tahr. Good luck.
