Gosh, that's awful Reanault! I know we cannot tame Mother Nature but boy she sure throws a few googlys or curve balls I guess. So long as you and yours are okay.
Never mind you can dream along with us eh? I like thought of a long line porters with my camping gear but perhaps a few camels or mules would surffice. There is a quality car the Morgan but I would still opt for the VW kubelwagen as my choice but would not turn down a Morgan if offered one...
You and I both there old sarge, but I live in hope and have dreams..........ahhhhh a double rife!
But I do like the Westley Richards bush jacket.

ahh, seeing Mister Cairo's avatar, I am watching the Maltese Falcon on TCM at the moment. Still as exciting as when I first watched it, oh so many years ago.
I noticed that Christopher Clarke antiques have some new artwork for sale and perfect to keep this thread going.
Photographs from the Kings Emperor’s Indian Durbar Tour 1911-1912.
Would I just to love to travel like this! (With Renault and Old Sarge along for the ride! :) )
Quite right chaps, Plan and plan again and you will still get the unexpected, eh! Strange they never really planned a route back or even took another body to have at least two canoes. However you have to admire their true grit.
I went to a Ray Mears lecture tonight and as always he tells stories of explorers and deeds of survival. He started off talking about the Hubbard expedition to find lake Michikamau with Dillon Wallace and George Elson.

I had a friend that moved out Africa and he had some pig sticking lance tips made, not sure he ever got to have a go with them. Need to ask him. We have wild hog over here now in certain areas, trouble is with no natural predation they will become a pest, like our deer population.
Well in that case my friend I expect a photo to emulate the Seerey-Lester painting! :D. Or I remember Baden-Powells story of following a boar in to a thicket on foot with a lance, bit too exciting that one for me.
Hope you have good time and plenty of good food after, boy am I envious of both...
Funny you mentioned hogs Renault, I saw this and thought of you!

Great looking rack you have there.
Just reviewing this old thread and noticed that great looking wet formed sheath, very nice indeed, did you make it? And any chance of a view of the skinning knife?
Thank you kindly.
Making memories, eh! big Man, way to go, I think of my Grandfather taking my brother and I on walks so it's nice to see you just doing that and with style to! My grandfather was a flat cap chap but your Fedora will stick in their minds I am sure.
