Hi Danny,
This is a little off topic from Shako, but I seen you are
off on a 40th anniversary cruise.
While I am actively involved in Shako, my professional hat
is a company that specializes in custom/private excursions and transfers
for guests on cruise ships all over the world. As you are celebrating a
special occasion, if you have any need/interest in any private tours
please don’t’ hesitate to contact me on 1 954 972 6306 or via email
to timharwood@....
For example we have an excellent company in Auckland that
handles wonderful private excursions. They recently hosted
Sir Roger Moore and his wife (The Saint / 007) for example.
Tim Harwood (you’ll find me on inside cover of Shako
II under rules contributors… :)
Cheers,
Tim

John-
I see you are in Auckland.
I'll be there next week on the start of a month long
cruise/vacation in New Zealand and Australia to celebrate our 40th
wedding anniversary. My wife has threatened me with all sorts of
punishments if I try to sneak away to play a game.... But I'm curious; are
there any hobby shops in Auckland or Wellington?
Many thanks

Excellent idea. So that after running out of ammo the gun can fire
canister only at the 9" (compulsory canister range).
