    Time for another Get-Together - Central North Island

    Could be time for another wee get together for those forum members that can travel to the Central North Island.

    Looking at early October, to give those with busy calendars enough time to rearrange their affairs and get up/down here for a Saturday afternoon/evening get together around a blazing bonfire and talk shit.

    14th October may be too controversial a date, and its Labour weekend after that, so have settled on Saturday 7th October.

    Anyone with time to burn can rock up days early if you want, and knock down some bunnys/coons over if desired. But no F/A on the Saturday thanks.

    The Cottage now has water and power on, so the more senior guys/girls can pull the rank card and will have a comfy bed. The great unwashed can bring their tents/bivvie bags/caravans and park up just out of spark range from the bonfire. The long drop will now sport a tent over it, and the shower may even work.

    PM for details and location.

    Be there or be square

    Not sure I'm going to be able to get there this year Simon. I'm working those days and due to staff shortages possibly not able to get annual leave.

    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
