Looking forward to your report, Adam and post plenty of pictures!


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

A .435 inch diameter bullet, right?
What does it weight, what velocity
will you expect?

OH GOD! {Seriously, we need the help.}

Unfortunately no luck with the 425 as most of my luggage went missing for over twelve days Mad( somewhere between Perth and Harare).
I did manage to take a big tuskless, Hyena, Warthog, few impala and a couple Baboons.
Also lost my Buff Mad Frowner
Otherwise a good safari at Chewore north .

Thankfully all the lost luggage turned up a couple day before leaving the hunting area, but to late to be of use on that hunt.

Australia
I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of drought and flooding rains.
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel-sea,
Her beauty and her terror
The wide brown land for me!

"

When I went through in 2006 the outfitter said up to 50% or 80% of people connecting on a fligh to Zim had their bags miss the flight or go "missing". Often pilfered as well.

Seemed to be more of a problem for "connecting" flights than people finishing off in Jo'burg and staying overnight for a flight the next morning. One reason I will probably always do that.
