Went 4 a walk today with my 17 year old sone, we got into a likely area and walked about 200M off track, smack into a bloody dope growing camp (abandoned). Shit I hate druggies. Gonna use it for next years raids.

Make sure it is well cleared of any booby traps mate. I know the ones that we found in Far North Queensland were always booby trapped...very nasty.

Cheers, Vince

What is a likely area?

Do you need to go on your walk-abouts armed? What arms would you be allowed to carry (could be a wide disparity between law-abiding citizen and criminal in your country)

Be cautious and safe, radar!

Hey Slim...a "likely area" in Aussie usually refers to an area that looks good to do what you want to do...a a likely area for a walk or hike is an area that looks good to walk with nice scenery and is easy walking.

Same for a "likely spot" to fish...it looks like it will/should hold some pretty decent fish.

I would imagine that in the land of "Kay One Dubbya One" it would mean the same mate.

Is "Kay One Dubbya One" a Down-Under term for the Great State of TEXAS and the Great Man who was the last President!?!

No mate...not George Dubya....Kay K One I Dubbya W One I = KIWI...a common friendly term to describe someone from New Zealand. There are also some not so nice terms involving sheep... but I would never insult our mates from The Land of the Long White Cloud by using them.

It's all good guys. Im the local expert on this kind of stuff anyway, I was the organiser/goto guy for our police area drug op this year so this happens all the time. I live in one of the 2 best spots for cannabis growing in NZ. UYoutube NZ Police goto drug bust - yep thats me in the green hat telling some yob to sit down and shut up. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xAiWZoY0CQ
