Spot on, I'm still a trainee "good bugger"unlike others on here

My mate Bill is an older bugger than me and I'm 65 !!!but he is much fitter and doesn't smoke !!! he is used to Scotland hunting and the Cleveland hills in England so he will manage ok

Welcome Bill. Good on ya. Perhaps tell us about the type of hunting you would like to do and then sit back and wait for the offers of assistance. There are some good forum buggers in the South Island and lower North Island that I am sure will help out. You may have to suffer the odd POME joke but that will just be the Antipodean lout coming out in us.

Bill is coming to hunt down blokes who tell bad pommie jokes but then again after the performance ( or non performance ) of our cricket and rugby teams we deserve the pommie jokes

before leaving the south island... don't forget to swap your south island currency for north island money.

that means exchange your Speight's beer for Tui, and load up a few shiny trinkets too lol.....

A quick update.
Bill is having a ball and is concerned that 9 weeks isnt long enough to do it all.
Seems he is getting stuck into the SI goats and fallow, and making lots of friends by gifting venison backstraps.
Currently in the Te Anau area and keen fo explore some more.
He is happy for me to put his number up for anyone who may want to touch base.
027 805 1599
He rang me by mistake as he was trying to contact Si in Ranfurly I think.

Cam. I will forward your number to Bill if you want, as he is struggling to get online while he is mobile. Or you can text him yourself. He is half expecting it.
