So, after a great afternoon, we gathered at Cuddle's and Snuggle's campsite to begin our meeting. 0() With the braai lit and the drinks flowing the laughter began, the stories got bigger and the jokes got naughtier! :twisted: :twisted:

The meat and chicken then went on the braai, but unfortunately in Cuddles and Snuggles' case it went onto the ground, so they ended up with some scrumptious sandgrouse for dinner! ^0^ \O Ice Ice Baby had made a potato bake which needed to be heated up, but the top of the braai didn't work, so it had to go on top of the coals. It was finally ready when we'd finished eating!! :-?

Image

This pic was of the sandgrouse after it had been cleaned so no sand anymore, yet Snuggles is probably still getting sand out of his mouth! =O: ^0^

Image

The talking continued and I took my chance to do some flashing! =O: :twisted:

iLlama ^0^

After a long, fun night we headed back to our tent looking forward to a good sleep...or so we thought! O/ :o0ps: 0()

A BIG well done to the mod who removed that obscene picture! I think I need some counseling after seeing that :shock:

I can't believe he keeps that hideous thing in his mouth ^0^


Hunting cannot be considered a sport as all contestants in a sport should know they are playing the game!

I can't believe he keeps that hideous thing in his mouth
and he wants to show it to everyone too.. 0: -O- ... but then again, he may just be showing us that he still had sand in his mouth from the sandgrouse =O: :twisted:
