Guess I should be asking Grandad since he seems able to control this!

Oh Horus! Do you have any idea how many million square kilometres we have here and how few people? Your chances of meeting any are infinitesimally small, you nutter! I've never never seen any that aren't in aquariums, zoos or museums, and have lived here all my life... so far!
You'd be most welcome, Jayway! Re dunny spiders: okay for looking at, just don't shake hands!

Well Africa is big and when I used to live there I was always treading on snakes and being chased by Crocs, not to mention being stung on the bum by spiders. Mind you, I suppose that Wallabies and Koalas are bit friendlier than Lions and Hippo's
Tomorrow (Saturday) I'm going to where it snow snow snows.....BIG TIME! Am taking a bus to Leavenworth. Small Bavarian style tourist town that puts on all sorts of Christmas stuff.

Looking forwards to seeing those pictures that place sounds like a real Winter wonderland.
