Unfortunately I won't be able to catch up as we made the finals of the South Canterbury lawn bowls competition to be played all day Saturday.
Sunday playing Rep bowls for North Otago all day, glad to be playing top level bowls but disappointed not to be able to meet a few of you guys.
Hope you all have a good time remembering Owen
Have a great weekend down there, just home from a month on the road in the SI so will be at work while your all partying hard.
Have a good week end guys,sorry but i wont be coming down even for a night.Tourist season just too busy 7 days a week.
Does anyone have an understanding of how many heads will be gathered
Hi @Rushy We have no Idea what the head count will be but assuming 8 to 10 good keen Forum Member
For entertainment i though we could either
Take a road trip up round the lake's. Twizel or Tekapo for a light lunch back through the Haka to Kurow mid afternoon. or a trip out to a hut on a station i have access to for a fry up this will depend on the weather and how many 4x4's we have (This is not a hunting trip)
See you Friday
Thanks for the update Harry, I am very relaxed about the whole thing so will go with the flow. If all else fails we could simply have a a pie, a pint and a good natter. I haven’t been to Tekapo for five decades but still have fond memories of digging a bunker in the snow and cursing the fucking rocks. And having to ask someone to piss on my hands to free them from the metal work of my SLR. North Island numpty had no idea about real cold.
I will unfortunately still be working on this bloody boat as the trips been extended.
Catch yas at the next gathering.
For a moment I had visions of Rushy hanging a few forum members heads as trophies in his gun room and needing the exact number to calculate how much wall space would be needed.
please post up when yo uhave decided what plan is..have night shift tonight but contemplating heading down if only for a hot cuppa tea and a natter on Saturday arvo maybe.... plurry wingwongchingchongchinaflue sure knocks a fella around somewhat. finally testing clear today.
Yeah well might not be able to come.
A friends special needs child (16yrs old?), just passed .
He is a bit of a space cadet at present as his cousin died of cancer last week as well but seemed to think the funeral would be this weekend.
To be confirmed
Do what you need to do mate.
Going to have to throw a yak on the roof and make a video while down there on Saturday. Oscar has helped me get back on the water and given me encouragement. He has recently heard that his bone cancer is back and we know how crap that is (RIP Toby). I've never edited a video before but up for the challenge.

Right back on again. Service next week
Anything planned for Saturday?
Just wondering what gear to bring
Up and on my way fellahs.
Had to flash two thumbs on my right hand to get across the border. Fools didn’t even see my left hand underneath
What have you fellas got planned for tonight/tomorrow night? But busy with mating on farm at the moment but I'll come catch up for evening festivities
Im struggling with motivation...but the idea of heading down for cuppa tea and a yak this evening has merit...will chuck mattress in back of wagon and squeeze in a quick hunt tomorrow morning on way home is thinking....whos all going to be around this evening???

Any chance you could name these heathens from left to right so we know who they are?
