Hi everybody.

After a long long time off-line - around a year - I am back and can see there are lots of new members, and maybe some old buddies who just do not remember me.
So I will have to introduce myself once again : I am a hunter. I am a creepy-crawlies enthusiast. I like to cook-eat-drink. I like to enjoy myself in good company, on-line and in flesh & bones. And my major weak point : I am French .
One year ago if you remember well, I told you that I was about to leave my job and trying to start again as a company owner : it lasted one year to put the things straight but here I am, I finally bought a fruit & vegetable gross trading company and so turned myself at the same time into a boss and a NEGATIVE millionaire . Consequence is that for the 2-3 coming years I will have no time on my hands for safaris, so please keep me entertained will nice stories from Africa!

King,

Welcome back, and yes, many of us remember your posts..

Welcome back. Good luck on your new enterprise. The fact that you are French... I will not hold against you, as the French make the WONDEERFUL Chapuis 9,3x74R double rifle, which will be my lion, leopard, and plains game rifle for my June 2004 Safari. I will try and shoot a Baboon or two with it in your honour.

Bienvenu encore!

J'en suis desole en ce qui concerne vos affaires, mais il y a la chasse, la chasse, toujours la chasse, n'est ce pas?

Les affaires? Mais non, jamais! On prefere la brousse.

Serieusement, bonne chance avec vos affaires et j'espere que vous trouverez le temps pour chasser les gibiers.

Bonne nuit.

WELCOME BACK!

Hi Kbab, glad you are back. I am still looking for a certain blue and green fuzzy wuzzy tarantula.

King Baboon, welcome back! Nice to have you around again, good luck with your venture, but honestly... don't you feel a bit like a traitor, feeding thos veggie-eating antis?

Ann: Damn, that picture scared the living s**** out of me...

Regards,
Martin

Thanks my friends, for your warm welcomes. Truth is, I was badly missing all this stuff!
Ann, if ever you make your way to France and come visit me, you might go back to the States with one of these furry girls in your pocket!
450 No 2, this is too great honor you're giving me, but I'll take it anyway! Please shoot three, with the softest bullets you can find, and blow the s**t out of'em!

And, Marterius,
when I have a look at all those - good-looking, I must admit - chlorophylian goodies I have in my hangar, I do feel like turning into a vegetarian myself . Maybe I should see a doctor...
But don't worry, I am still eager to rip some pigs with my spear when season is on
