It's been a frustrating day! So much to do ... so little time.
Tomorrow we fly to Dubai but first I have to head to London to look at the Kenya show in detail. I have a rough cut which looks splendid (some photos above) ...
I was playing on Google and found three articles that made me VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY angry ...

Also noted hunters were - shockingly - Ernest Hemingway and - even more shockingly - President Theodore Roosevelt ... the man who gave us the "teddy bear" ...
The Victorian dramatist W.S. Gilbert said it right ... "Deer-stalking (feel free to add any animal here) would be a very fine sport, if only the deer had guns." Hear! Hear!
When ANY SANE PERSON sees these lovely creatures - elephants, buffalo, LEOPARD, rhino in the wild, what kind of a sick, twisted, evil, spawn of the devil, stupid (etc etc) mind would want to destroy them????
("Nurse, pass me my medicine ..." i.e. rant over)
