    Skin tanning. Tauranga area

    Hi y'all.
    I could have tacked on to the other thread but it seemed rude to butt in.
    Got a couple of Fallow hind skins for tanning.
    Anyone know of anyone local? And rough cost.
    Cheers me dears.

    Main Mt beach is a popular tanning spot, It is however nearly Winter so it may take a bit longer than normal and you wont see as many fine specimens about.
    Toby and Dynastar27 like this.

    Nothing wrong with Danne'. At least it's heading the right way from here..... Toward Athol.
    I know a good place for tanning and that's open all year round regardless of sun
