    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

    You're a cheeky bugger Gibo. I reckon the day the three of us catch up with you will see a bit of blood splatter on the moon. Of course if you disconnect the batteries on our scooters we will have trouble chasing you.

    Way back when there were so many quail in the Nelson region there was a quail canning factory. Quail numbers have taken a big hit in the past 20 years in the area and still going down.

    All those with dogs waiting no longer fear death. Those with many dogs waiting even welcome it in it's time.

    Fascinates me too Munsey, the history behind those dogs lost to time.
