. Rejigged my pig taxidermy at the weekend! Two more WIP at the taxidermists. And next warthog hunt scheduled for April 2019 ..... Long time to wait !! I also spent an hour oiling all the ivory with Johnson's baby oil. Works great.  Picture is a bit dark, sorry, but you get the drift. . "Up the ladders and down the snakes!" | |||

. George thanks! You are right on both counts - same taxidermist for past 10 years. Love the way he does my pigs. And yep the other ones are in our place in Germany. In fact here is a sketch I did for the taxidermist ( I am not a great drawer ) of a pig that is WIP at the moment. He will be a half mount kneeling off the wall as if feeding. Keen to see how he works out.  Something different! Charlie . "Up the ladders and down the snakes!" | |||

A mention is made here of Johnson's baby oil to preserve pig tusks. Any more comments? What about wood/ furniture oil? Thanks. | |||

The boar ran us 8 kilometres plus and then we had to pull the dogs as it was getting hot.  Was a great mornings bushpig hunting over hounds in the Midlands of RSA!

Hey Charlie: Are you affecting the pig population there any? Am glad to see you're still playing the game. Hope you can do so for another 50 years. By then' you might have the walls all filled up.
