I was also taught to shoot..
I Loved it and would go to small bore rifleling ( SP) with my father cos he was a good shot too.
When we lived in Kaiangaroa the Boys didn't believe that I loved shooting and was a good shot. So I got me a gun... and went out hunting with them. Did any of them hit anything Nope... I got a pig in the shoulder, the worst spot really cos their shoulder blades are really tough. We followed him for ages..
They still didn't believe me so off we went to the dump.. and had a shooting contest... they shut up after that.
Learnt on the farm where we all migrated to for the Christmas holidays. Tin cans on fence posts lol.
Another Back in the day Boy thing was rugby. I would go to training with my brothers and they let me train with the teams but of course wasn't allowed to play.
At college here in 79=80ish we begged to be allowed to play rugby, the only concession was Indoor Soccer.. The Boys thinking they had it won before they even turned up. Sadly we only played one game.. We were too rough on them... There were walls for running them into, they didn't like that lol OOPS.
They took all but the bin they wouldn't take last time in the inorganic. Ill have to get rid of it via bags.
Planted the passionfruit, Dug the ground with a hammer and screwdriver cos the Blardy padlock has rusted on the shed with the garden tools and Hacksaw in.. lol.. Paul will come in and grind it off for me.
But its in the ground so fingers crossed it will grow.
