    If gangs could focus on keeping tobacco price at reasonable level, and helping meat export gains more quota in China, and less drugs, less violent but be more productive to local "issues", then...

    You may. She currently runs a program for the Great Barrier Reef Foundation helping communities that depend on reef ecosystems develop resilience to climate change. She want to expand that work, build a program in NZ to attract funding and develop and leverage talent in the country to make it a hub for resilience innovation across the Pacific.

    Suffice to say, she a lot smarter than I am.

    Thanks, Jaco. Lived in Botswana for a few years in the early 2000s. Didn't spend a whole lot of time in SA, though.

    Welcome aboard
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    If you are in the Manawatu/Ruahine area of the North Island I might be able to help with the fishing.
