Just wondered which of our AR guests are promoting ( leather furniture ) in their homes !

My NZ home residence ( Africa Private Booking Office ) is an Anti's or Greenies Nighmare Big Grin

Couch / Sofa in genuine Leather and European / Dutch Oak base wood

PS: Apologies to the Yankies for the flag, I have another genuine USA flag on opposing wall Cool



Please post pictures of your nice Leather furniture if available just to get the greenies going loopy

Cheers, Peter

I like the flag and the portrait of Marsh Bob hanging beside it.

Why do men like women in leather? Because they smell like new cars ...

Tight leather pants are a really big TURN OFFfor me. I kind of look at them as odor traps. I prefer the smell of gun leather.


Cry 'Havoc,' and let slip the dogs of war;
That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
With carrion men, groaning for burial.

My african safari room is replete with leather furniture, including a leather chair, a leather couch, a leather loveseat, leather footrests and all kinds of tanned skins on the floor, the gun safe and the big screen television. If I can get some photos posted I certainly will. I'm sure any greenies or antis would have either an immediate cardiac arrest or a major stroke just walking into the room!

Mink and Wall Tents don't go together. Especially when you are sleeping in the Wall Tent.

A "safari booking office" with no African hunting trophies?????

Man, if you want to upset the greenies get some dead animals on the walls and the floor. Razzer

Hi John ..

Toooooooooo many bloody sheep over here in NZ .... Yes I do need a couple of African Game heads to put on the wall. I need to make aplan as they say

Maybe I can get a nice NZ Pig or similar to start with and slowly graduate to cape buff or similar. I need to talk nicely to my brother and maybe he will let me take out an old buff cow next time I am over there !!!

Perhaps an encounter with the great unwashed.

The humble impala always looks good in any room, shoulder mount or skull mount.

Peter,

From what you wrote, I get the impression that you haven't shot any game yourself. Is this correct?

Just curious, after reading your above post, and not recalling any other earlier posts from you regarding guns/shooting, pictures of you with game, or your own hunting experiances. Which is fair enough if that is the case.

I would like to hunt the zebra subspecies that the pillow is made from. And please quote me for a dwarf tiger hunt too.

Great flag. Quarter-sawn mission-style oak furniture also has a masculine look and goes well in an office or trophy room.

This old "damyankee" will say that you don't have to give us Yankees any apologies for the Stars and Bars flag. We have a lot of respect for it- because some brave Americans fought under it once. ( It was a family fight -and like all family fight was a particularly vicious one) It's all over now -but I would think you might get some flak from a few "unreconstructed" Rebs about your referring to a "genuine USA" flag. The Americans who fought under the other one thought they were fighting under the real USA flag! ( yeah, it gets a little complicated sometimes. I just thank heaven that we got all of us back together again under one flag) Smiler

Peter, I see that you set up shop, at least part time, in New Zealand. I'm entertaining the idea of hunting there. Can you recommend any Professionals there that you've hunted with?
Thanks.

My youngest granddaughter has been looking over my shoulder (she's visiting for a week now that school is out). "Why can't we have a kitty like on that couch?" she asked. Hmmm.

Peter,

Are you from the US? Or spend a bunch of time over here?

South Africa - Zambia - New Zealand and you have a Confederate battle flag in your office. I love it!

Make for good target practice. Wink

I can see it now. Peter puts on his pith helmet, loads up his double barrelled shotgun. Stalks through the office and there, hiding behind the jungle bush (pot plant) is the dreaded maneater. Eeker Sitting astride its bovine victim (leather couch). Peter lets fly with both barrels ....... mgun

Peter needs a new leather couch to drape his tiger skin upon. Big Grin

Combined replies to various questions posed ...

No I am not from the USA, but I am a USA supporter ... I guess having lived most of my life in ex:Rhodesia and being a honkey that makes me a (bit of a rebel) at least in the eyes of the liberals. I actually like the Confed flag as it is nice and colourful, I dont use it truly symbolically, just to fill the wall space and of cource tick off the liberals Wink

I was actually born in (Port Elizabeth South Africa) and lived many years in Bulawayo Rhodesia, and a few years in Vancouver Canada back in the early 70's.

I have been permanent resident in NZ since 1976 and am a dual SA/NZ citizen and passport holder, so that suits me wonderfully as when I travel to SA I use their passport and when I travel to other places outside Africa I generally use my NZ passport, it is quite a good situation to be in really with bonafide dual citizenship.

I am a (retired security technician) and now operate from home as a (safari, hunting, wildlife, & Africa Investment consultant) working exclusively for my brother Alan the entreprenuer/rancher whom has varied outdoor and wildlife interests in SA and Zambia.

I have not hunted myself in NZ but I do have some good contacts for those considering or wanting to hunt here, just drop me an email off air anytime at my worldwide email and I will do my best to assist and/or refer you to local NZ outfitters or individuals as required.

I have also of late branched out into Southern Africa Investment consulting for my brother Alan whom is expanding his hunting & wildlife portfolio

Gee Whiz ... you are a hard man 500G (-:

Unfortunately the Zebra and Tiger are immatation (el cheapo replicas only)

WE have very nice Zebra specie in SA but no Tiger .... if you want Zebra Ranch hunt in SA then no problem, just rock on over ( July or August or early Sept ) and we will charge you the specie fee only for any 5 x plains game animals available on the ranch you chose to hunt ... NO DAILY rates at all

Cheers, Peter
