Pretty ignorant Ryan an inaccurate generalisation of duckshooters, grow up.

Batteries for head lamp, for battery operated duck call and battery in mojo. You can't take anything for granted, I even have a heap of spare batteries. I'm probably older than you ha ha

Good luck for Saturday, I will be keen to see photos of every ones day out

Forecast looks sunny with light winds as usual

Do you live in the country and put up with the same shit every year? Last year I said the same thing, I think I even said something along the lines of "mark my words" and what do you know... a landcruiser full of shotguns and still half drunk idiots that had been drinking all day on the Saturday and were headed down to their spot on the Sunday morning managed to go straight through a giveaway and kill a woman travelling to watch her son play age group representative rugby - this happened on the very road we lived on. I agree, it's a generalization, which is generally what happens when an overwhelming proportion of any group act or behave in a certain way. If your nose is clean good for you, maybe you could teach some manners and etiquette to the idiots. Certainly seems to be familiar enough to strike a chord.

Zero, but I'm too honest for my own good.

That sort of carry on is crap and I don't condone it however, it is a generalisation from your point of view and your area. It is not representative of the vast majority in my experience. I'm not going to slag the dairy farming community because once again, most are following best practice and care for their animals. Don't bring everyone here down due to your bad experience. Let us have a yarn about the upcoming weekend without yet another thread turning into a shit fight.

No good deed goes unpunished.
