Jesus! Can you believe this?

I just found a folder lying here in the pile around the bottom of my desk and it appears to contain airline tickets to some place called Namibia! With my name on them! From all appearances, it looks like I'm booked for 9 days somewhere in the bush of North-Central Namibia! And I have to leave Sunday! How the hell did that happen?

Oh, well. I suppose I'll go. If I have to.

Probably have to shoot a kudu, gemsbok and an eland just to get out of the country for God's sake! Never know what those locals will demand of you.

Let's hope something like a zebra or heartebeest doesn't come along and muck things up.

I'll do it, if I have to. But I better not have to sit around one of those lapa fire pits and have someone hand me a whiskey, neat, along with a cold German beer while I wait for grilled eland strips.

What a mess!

TWL,

It's a tough job to manage the game population in African countries. Good luck hope you can manage.
