    I didn't have any of the correct Hazsubs placarding for transporting such a dangerous cargo, so left it in its safe place

    You don't need any placarding if you're transporting as a private citizen, nor do you need to separate classes. How often do you see petrol, gas bottles, groceries etc in the back of a Ute that's been to town all jumbled up. Go back and get them and to hell with the risk��

    Well get your health and safety plan up to date.
    Because that's what I'm bringing.

    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

    And he should get some urea and diesel while he's there too.
    Just in case.

    Yesterday's frost killed most of the tomato plants I put in over the weekend , so it can still be cold here overnight. So come prepared for cool weather guys.

    Having said that, the forecast is for mid teens temperatures, and no rain

    Looks like we will have 20+ forumites here for the weekend, with a couple turning up early to help lower the hare population

    If I have missed sending anyone the directions to get here, drop me a pm.

    Anytime Friday, or Sunday. Just no shooting on the event day.

    Just to prove me wrong, the temperature for the past 3 days has reached 19 degrees each afternoon. In cloudy conditions. And appears to want to hang around for another few days, so the lack of a big bonfire shouldn't mean too much for peoples comfort levels. Also it appears that Saturday will be a sunniest for this week (Windy).

    So have got Rushy's stage all set up for him to entertain us from. As long as he doesn't fall off the side of the truck!

    Looking at the numbers attending, my gas barby and charcoal barby may not crank out enough tucker quick enough, so if anyone has room in their wagon to drag down another barby, it would be appreciated by all
