Puts an end to my night nuddie runs then.![]()

It's actually the active ones you would want at night; because they sense you long before you know they are there, and will most of the time run off. It's the ones you might interrupt in a bush or somewhere napping, and they get startled. I know sometimes I will go into my room and there will be some snakes right up against the glass, totally knocked out. If I tap on the glass gently they won't even budge, but if I slap the glass hard they freak out and are looking to defend themselves vigorously. It's quite funny as I do it to my monocled cobra Blondie all the time; that girl is totally knocked out in sleep and I scare the crap out of her.

Snakes are only 1/2 your problem; you gotta be insane to go into the water at night. You got jellyfish, stonefish, sharks, blue ringed octopus. Do you guys have nets set up around where you go in the water?
Here's a guy on another forum I go to. He's from Melbourne and gets called out ot alot of snake rescues. He knows his Oz elapids for sure. Don't know if this link will work.

You were in the Armed Forces right? Probably had you do crazier sh#t than that. Sharks are terrifying to me; nothing but perfectly created killing machines. Eat, swim and make baby sharks. I love the ocean though from when I lived in California till I was 8; but those sharks are bad news.
speaking of snakes chasing you down, i hear mambas will chase you til they catch you. fact or fiction? or a bit of both?
those people that walk through the south american wetland looking to find anacondas by stepping on them, that's just f'ed up.

They won't chase you unless you get them in a tight spot. Mambas typically in the wild will take off if you get closer than 50 ft. But if you get them in a corner you better watch your ass. They can get close to 14ft and can raise 1/2 their bodies off the ground. That means they can hit you in the face and you're basically f#cked. Corner any animal and they'll fight, but mambas are in a class of their own, with only the taipans and brown snakes equal in ferocity.
You guys probably just sit back and laugh at how much I ramble abut snakes![]()

I would not be in the armed forces if they paid me double/time.Some mates were but went awol one after the other, after the first one ko ed and splattered the nose of the seargant right on parade.
. Were going to go back there ,well near there, and rob the whole place of their Christmas pay,3000 troops! Add that up. they were unarmed in those days and did the run back out into the country with all that money in cash in their own in an army truck they were armed and with blanks in those days.we even had two in the van on our side who were going to stop any action from that side. Plane with pilot ,trail bikes,the whole thing from the inside out. They got a private security company to do whole thing just prior to d day.probably all for the best really ,as I could have a large reamed ass by now.
