The incremental development of the English language is such a fascinating thing @NZBeeMan Without my being critical or disrespectful, in these two sentences I recognise that you have used the language I have spoken and have communicated with in it’s written form my entire life but this old baby boomer has no idea what you are talking about (hastily acknowledging that it was not directed at me so therefore I do not need to understand it). I find that simply intriguing. Please don’t try to explain, I am content not knowing. I am sure that even younger people could carry out entire conversations in front of me in modern English that would sound to me like encrypted code. Fascinating really.

I'm sure that you could de-code it given the context.
@Rushy, you aren't that much older than I am (I may not have said that 20 years ago, how time changes your perspective). I guess growing up with computing and associated tech does cause a language shift; I struggle with the language of 'the youth of today', probably almost as much as a boomer

Great butchery video. Couple of pillow cases to drop meat into as you butcher,then into plastic after your done might help. Also a tiny steel that fits back into own handle,also used to sharpen fish hooks.costs very little,similar size n weight as your Swiss army knife would keep knife sharp,you did awesome job of meat recovery,full honour given to animal.

Welcome Tasman, yeah good butchery vid. keep it up.

Welcome to the forum Tasman, great videos mate! Definitely inspiring

Welcome to the forum, seems we have a celebrity in our midst if the 4 pages of welcome are anything to go by

I guess I had better go find these videos now

Welcome Tasman. I look forward to watching your videos more than any other hunting videos. No fancy equipment or sponsored driven promoting. Your fitness and grit is outstanding. I also love your culinary skills you include in your videos. Keep doing what you are doing.

ps. I've never seen so many likes in one post on here but they are rightfully deserved for a reason.

I'm just going to echo everyones elses comments. You do some very cool trips and videos. Keep up the good work.

Like the way you use gear that us normal people can afford. Fixing a stove with what you have, thats Kiwi No8 wire stuff. Get miffed at some other vids where the gear is meg bucks, you are so Real -----not advertising or pushing products.
