My girlfriend and I used to hike alone in the high berg especially in winter and it never left my side pocket of my Karrimor..The other pocket was the equally indestructible Nikon FM2n with AIS 50mm 1.8 Pancake..the real one.(lol...this was said for the benefit of any 35mm okes lurking here) Stolen by some footpad but replaced last year.
I was very lucky with my choice for my first gun.Bought a Beretta 92 P.First thing I did was swap out the crap plastic grips for a set of Pachmayr combat grips and cordura holster.Loved the beast.Trouble free from the day I bought it.Cleaned it after every shoot and it rewarded me.Sold when I moved to Botswana.No small firearms there.I am now looking for one.I like a heavy gun that sits down in my hand.Especially one that is trouble free and accurate.I wont buy anything else
Interesting.I never knew that.I know that most snakes do have an odour.We had a female moz spitter that was in and around the house.And you could smell snake.We had 2 ridgebacks and the cat and we could not pin her down.She even laid her eggs under the patio paving and we had littlies scuttling around.They are quite pink when small.One came in through the patio door and bumped into my foot
My mate had a hip replacement with a ceramic joint that squeeked. He fell on the second or third day of the Epic and cracked it.When they redid the ball the squeek had gone.
