Stuff that happened to you that doesnt deserve a thread

[RainstormZA]

Probably someone's pet that escaped

Then you got no idea of how to handle a wild snake in a very calm mindset, have you? I've done it and surprised me that I never got bit by it - I was 21 and only did it hit me later because I was so pumped full of adrenaline in order to save that snake from a bunch of stupid people.

I did snake handling training years ago. Even though i live in the surbs, ive had to catch quite a few snakes from harmless green bush snakes to rinkhals. We are in the koppies near a sanctuary, in summer we see a lot of these. In the last 12 years probably about 17-20 snakes that i had to move back to the reserve

Not really newsworthy I suppose, but since I fell off the wagon with quitting smoking, I just wanted to tell someone today I'm 3 months sober. Batshit crazy and stressed as hell, but sober, lol.

It is big newsworthy achievement @Viper_SA , congratulations and wishes to read of the fourth month soon.

Well the difference is I've never caught a wild snake by hand before and I had no bucket or any tool to assist me. On top of it all, I've never done a snake handling course, to this day.

I think its something I learnt from my high school teacher when I witnessed him catching a snake calmly and it never bit him.

Wild scrub hares on the lawn this morning. I wonder where that leveret (baby hare) is, I saw it yesterday morning.

It's was so nice and cool, it's going to be another hot day. 30*C

Yeah the hares are so used to me, I get one just a metre from my chair, strolling past casually and so relaxed.

And they have the most beautiful brown eyes too.

@Viper_SA Whew! Giving up smoking AND drinking at the same time? You are definitely "batshit crazy"! Maybe you took on too much so I'm not surprised - and don't blame you - for falling off the wagon with one of them. Don't be so hard on yourself - you're only human.

That you've been sober for 3 months is awesome. Comparing smoking with drinking I'd say that smoking is the lesser of two evils so 3 months sober is a major achievement and I admire you tremendously for that!

Got two things today. Was in the Freestate for my grandparents 70th wedding aniversary. Granpa 98 and Grandma 97 this year, still going strong. All their children was there, and all the grandkids, and off course the only kids that was there was 9 great grandchildren, and a few on the way still we did not miss one, everybody there and nobody has died (yet)

Ok second one that dont deserve a thread. So I bought a mod the other day and it has an overwhelming smell of some previous liquid. I washed it got sort of rid of it, but the squonk bottle no chance, rinsed in lemon juice, overnight in lemon vinegar etc, nothing can get it out. So as this smell is irretating me the last week or s, I just cant figure out what it is. It is sweet and really overwhelming but thats it, cant get my head or nose to what kind of juice it can be.
Anyway so today in the freestate we have the party on a farm, with food as only you can get on a farm, meat for africa, oil, butter and grease for africa. Anyway afyer a few brandy and two plates of food, I feel that before I drive back to Pretoria, I must first go to Witbank. So after I visit Witbank, I spray some supplied refreshner for the next tourist.
Bingo, I found that smell in my mod, not similar, exactly on the dot same flavour

Thats terrible @Jean claude Vaaldamme
I assume you bought that mod second hand?
Do you think the seller sprayed air freshener into the squonk bottle??

Just as long as its strawberries and cream. And not strawberries and cream mixed with ass. Lets face it, after going number 2, doesnt matter what you spray, it still smells like ass
