    I just got a phone call from the owner of the pigeon Toby. It was released from Gisborne to go to Hastings,he let 3 birds go and you smoked the loser the other two arrived home. It was released on the 6th October so must of been a loser alright.

    But that bird that you smoked did win one race from Timaru too Hastings in 11hours.

    Theres some great info there too share with your mates Toby

    Caught this bastard frolicking in my coco pops. Chased him round the furniture for an hour with a broken Hughes 500 collective that I found in a box of chopper parts in the corner, which made an awesome club. He ended up running behind the stove, which was a dumb idea considering that there's a steel I-beam sticking out of the wall at the other end, effectively blocking passage through behind the stove. Which left only the way he went in as an escape route, but I jammed a bag of spuds in that end and imprisoned the little f***er. There was about a 10mm gap between the I beam and the oven, so I jammed a kitchen knife in there, and judging by the resulting sound, he wasn't impressed.

    Well done Dan. That brings back memories of my grandfather chasing one fifty years ago with a ceremonial sword.

    The rat will get the last laugh though as it took a dump in the coco pops before Dan dealt to it.

    Saw a big fat bush rat last night in the sleet/hail doubling back to camp cos I over overshot by a couple hundred meters in bush in the dark Crossed my mind to deal to him with the 08 when he ran up a tree but was more interested in my sleeping bag

    That particular box of coco pops is now serving in admirable retirement as a mouse trap... If I hear it rustling, I run over and squeeze the top of the box shut, then take it outside and call the dog over. That and hair-trigger gin traps.

    I was surprised at how tough the little buggers skin was, took a good effort to stick him, that kitchen knife was a wee bit blunt though..
    The first photo is when he's still alive, I dunno how to make it show up...
