Grew up in darkest Africa.

Down south so I suppose South Africa, which i was pleasantly surprised to see there is presently a 0% of on this forum.
though been liveing in the UK here say since 1996

happy to have spent my child hood there its where i first encountered herps and probably managed to turn over every rock in our garden twice a day looking for them. Laughing

Though truthfully I'm very comfortable in this county and consider it home Laughing

with plans to leave Laughing

actually i did meet him once or twice when i was about nine years old. Surprised

he did a record sit in, i think it was for 90 days with puff adders, diamond backs,cotton mouths, boomslangs, vine snakes and night adders if my memory serves me right.
at the Fitzsimmons Snake Park in Durban.

he did an ID on a few of the snakes i had found, to put my mother at rest as she was not so convinced that i was keeping non-venomous snakes and only nine she doubted my knowledge.

seven years later i got my first job at the snake park and met him once more, he seemed to me to be your average nutter Twisted Evil
