It will be your last!

Harry, you must nominate someone to do the September/October flavour!

No not feeling like it

Could this be a reason for banning?

[Richprins]

Far too cheeky!

[Richprins]

Right, Harry, you have until close of business today...

By steamtrainfan in 2018:

Just before Olifants camp where the road runs alongside the river we stopped on the river side of the road to watch these elephant crossing the river.









Joan then says, pointing slightly to the front of the car at about 11:00, there is such a tiny elephant with his mom.



While watching Joan hears a very soft (swoosh swoosh) sound coming from her left. She turns to look and sees a pair of tusks coming toward her. I hear her mutter " Oh s***" and when I turn to look at her she has her head under the dash with this mass of grey slowly moving past right by her window. I can hardly breathe as two of the elephant stop and stand right in front of our car and a third stops right at Joans window. She could have put out her hand and touched it. Joan with her head under the dash and praying that the elephant would walk on, but no it just stood there. I was praying that one of them would not place their trunk on the bonnet of the car. Very slowly and hardly breathing I lift the camera up and take a photo of the two in front of the car. I would loved to have turned to my left to get a photo of Joan with her head under the dash with this grey mass behind her but I dared not risk any further movement. Unfortunately the photo does not actually show how close they were to the car.



All three must have stood like that for about four minutes but it seemed to us like four hours.

Eventually the three of them slowly moved off down to the river..
