The antivenom is only an hour away, cut off blood supply to the area bitten and ease it back in slowly and you should be right. Another backpacker here is terrified of swimming in the sea herr due to sharks, i just say look youll be bit as handy worrying as not worrying.

Now look what chasing girls and beering results in.☺. Nearly time to tie a knot in it now!! Fingers crossed. As long as pair of them are healthy Muckit will be a happy buck. Remember herself was in hospital and was dropping my small lass to the parents to go up to visit. I think she was in a week at that stage. Got the call in the middle of the customary spuds. Come now quick there is something wrong. That was 7.40pm. Mad dash to hopsital and into operating room and at 8.40 and 8.44 the twins arrived. Few weeks early but all healthy and well.

When i rang the recruiter before i landed in oz they said the most dangerous animal where im headed was a kangaroo on the road, never mentioned tiger snakes and redbacks.
Im getting a great kick off tormenting the rest of the team here by being so lax and easy about the snakes and spiders.

They'd only take one bounce around here at the moment, in off the road. They'd have to learn a new skill after that:D

Ah that's more like it! I was thinking a bird that can go 200mph wouldn't be hunting in a shed. Few more pictures.

Speaking of birds, you just reminded me. Back when the ewes were lambing I was heading for the shed to check on them. Heard this awful squawking when I was coming down the road. When I went in there was a bird that had a magpie caught by one leg. They were fighting it out around the lambing pens. Sheep going daft. I have got a few videos of it but mag got away in the end. I'm no expert but I think it was a peregrine Falcon. Fastest animal in the word. Can go over 200 mph. I've attached a screen shot of one of the videos. Not sure how to upload a video. Its not the best picture but maybe someone with more knowledge then me can confirm what it is.

Looks like a female sparrowhawk - great pic!!

I popped over to The Late Late show thread there for 15 mins......
Nope, lifes too short to be arguing the 8th amendment with people i don't know, and half of them are bat-sh1t crazy. Back to the farming forum and here I'll stay.

Just checking out the local sheep farmers sheep to make sure they're not after breaking in with the binoculars as you do there this evening.
I heard a cock pheasant chucking away then in another field. So I turned the binoculars then to see if I could see him.
Didn't spot the pheasant but saw a magpie roughly over where the pheasant was calling from. The magpie was darting on the branch at something.
What was it only a buzzard.

I must say the buzzard blended in fairly well with the trees still in their winter clothes.
But anyway the buzzard was following the pheasant and the magpie was following the buzzard.
The buzzard got a bit fed up with the magpie then and moved onto a different tree but was still following the pheasant.

So there's a bit of a wildlife post.

I bought a bull this evening and turning in the gate the oul fella spotted this white yoke on the ditch so looking glasses came out.

I'd get drunk on the smell of a shandy.;)
