One publican in that pub got a shot gun fired at him but the drunk was that pissed and missed him and hit the dart board

And it wasn't me

Gee sounds like Te Puke on a good night

The publican at the Ashurst pub used to clear the yanks out during the war with a cross cut saw flung from the stairs, only did it once I believe after that a threat was all it took

I tried searching the publicans name but it was before google so nothing showed up.

F off

I thought that F off was my name up till I was about 6 years old

Have to save picture to your files to read this.I scored this from the pub before it was gone.

About 45 years ago the ashurst publican cleared the pub of a bikee gang by firing a shotgun though the ceiling.
I also recall when I was shepherding near mangaweka, I was in the Gretna pub in taihape and a guy road his horse into the bar. It was hell of a funny.

"offered a good choice of NZ beers including FOSTERS"

We used to visit a pub in SW England that had an ancient right of way through the middle of the main bar. It could only legally remain if it was used once a year at least. So the local fox hunt, complete with hounds, rode through on boxing day each year.

Tahr ironically that day I was heading from Masterton to PN with my vintage motorcycle on a trailer behind my car. I had just gone past the pub when I was surrounded by bikers all having left the pub after that incident. They rode all around me escorting me into PN. They stopped at the petrol station in Main Street and pinched their petrol. I kept going.

What was the bike Maca ?

Guessing it was a brit, so unlikely to be stolen. They are just too easy to trace by following the oil trail

HTF did we get from free fish to motorbikes??

I don't know DD! Now I've got my composure back! Pengy it was a 1928 New Hudson 500 single cylinder side valve, one bang per lamp post!
