Thoughts go out to all his family and friends on the loss of Tick. My memories go way way back to Otautau Primary School days, of hours spent racing round on our bikes, playing in the trees above Holt Park, happy and carefree times.

To the Paulin family, please accept my deepest sympathy on Tick's passing. I remember him working for Fiordland Travel and dropping in some venison to the girls at the Green Crib, saying to hang it, but, as no one knew how to cook it, the leg hung in the meat-safe until dehydrated!
