This is my kind of mai mai, except as much as I love bacon, as soon as it hits your guts, you need a dump...you take a dump...the ducks come in...your mates start shooting...some thing has to give...cut short the dump...careless and carefree with the wiping...known as stink-arse for the rest of the day...or if its a weekend...crusty

Brekkie is 10am usually so no issues there! Baby wipes!!!

Always bacon, eggs and hash browns, followed by cups of coffee. The cooking is one of my duties, along with providing the transport, filming the action, and plucking ducks. Reuben likes to keep the old man busy you see. Doesn't want me to get bored and start blowing my caller.

Not much for me. A few biscuits, bier sticks, maybe some scones and a flash of hot water for some cup a soup.

On the Wednesday before opening get your stock pot out. Chuck in a leg of mutton and some spuds boil for 2 hours and turn off. Thursday add Kumara and bacon bones.
Boil for another 2 hours. Friday add some greenery - cabbage , watercress if you have it. Boil for another hour. Have a feed. Top it up with more meat and veg. Boil again.
Come Saturday in the mai mai just crank that pot on when the hunger pains come. If it starts getting down just pluck a fat drake or two and throw them in too. 2 loaves of buttered
bread and thats food for the weekend.
Other variants could include but not limited too Pumpkin , Weka , Swedes , Parsnip , Whole Ham , Silverbeet .

Always the same +++ porridge before we head to the pond and we shoot til 10am ... then guns down and in the maimai we have stove top warmed ham and egg pie, cheese and crackers with sun-dried tomatoes, bell peppers stuffed with feta cheese, special coffees ... and too many rollies (for a bunch of non smokers).

Anyone going out in Nelson region?
I have a welcoming stick but think it would be pretty crap for shooting ducks unless they were busting down the front door.
Not necessarily opening weekend but would be keen to come out and see how its done one day, can supply a pie/veni stew whatever, will retrieve over land(can swim but not my strong point) in return for a duck or two and instruction on what the hell to do with it.

I am sure some one down there will get you into it
