No worries, no hijack--as long as you understand the cool people are flying the 6th.
Cheers, mate.

John:
I will spend a 13-hour layover in the Delta lounge. At boarding I will be in Courneney boots, shorts, and a green vest.
Hope to see you.

Green vest and without a shirt Rambo style? That's awesome!

Just kidding. Safe travels to all.

You guys are the reason I'm on AR.

I'm after elephant after a week vacationing with friends in Harare. Taking Jack Lott's .500 ne Watson Brothers double (made in 1907) as I'm too old to lug around my heavy .600. Plus the .600 Wilkes has been with me on my last 6 overseas hunts as well as killed a moose in western Alaska so it's time to retire the old double.

Cheers, men.

Hanging wiht you mates is getting more difficult with each passing month. Even over here us SA for ny flight to Zim the next am, I'm sure the shit will follow me where ever I go. But, I like it here and I've now a good support staff for me--councellors, psychologists, plus leg monitors and medications to get me through the therapy sessions, I will be able to read your childish attacks on my vest and shorts.
Friends with all of ya.
Cal
PS. Glad I didn't wear my black leather biker vest, chaps, hat, and cup on the flight.
