The SLR.Us 'Crabfats' only got to fire it once a year.The longest I had one in my possession was a week.I was down the Falklands and as I was only a JT at the time ,I had to do a week of night guard on the bomb dump at RAF Stanley.We had a Sanger to sit in looking out to sea and only Twelve live rounds.It was the first anniversary of the sinking of the Belgrano and the top brass thought the Argies might try something.All I could see every night were shadows moving over the beach.i knew it was just the clouds moving past the moon overhead.But I kept thinking about those war films where the unsuspecting sentry gets crept up on and his throat cut!.We were told to keep our magazines in our ammo pouches.But I had mine on my gun with one up the spout.One of the lads thought it was funny when coming to relieve you to creap up on you.He did it to me one night and I swung round with my SLR.Freaked him out when he saw my magazine on.He didn't do it again.Lucky I didn't shoot him I guess.

Lots of military folk, but also a wide variety of occupations and interests too. Some of the stories coming out are very interesting and amusing.

great lizards monica, I did have loads of rare bits, but feeding bills got to high and losing intrest after so many years im keeping just a few, like my geckos as like the species and my cobra lol, but shame cant keep in the same room as want to use for modelling but id be worried on the fumes,

[monica]

oh nice, i wish i could off keep a couple of the little guys along with a few green tree frogs,as they always seamed to smile, and were happy little guys,

but the pain in the butt who would not stop nagging me, thats my job im the female lol,

oh i do like geckos, had a few as well, and how cool is that have a cobra, nice, but you know i never trust a snake,

i had a friend with a red belly black snake, and he thing would just stand up over his log and watch ever thing you did or move you made,

and there was like a small gap at the bottom of the door and i keeped telling him one day it will come out and just bite you for the sake of it

[Guest]

lol, its a false water but she s a youngster but hoods up all the time and she wont tame down which is a pity, but ref the bites it doent bother me I had at one point 50+snakes and when came to feeding/ cleaning if I wasn't bleeding from some bite then I would be surprised thu was mostly from the youngsters lol

ive had all sorts , ive got some axolotyals etc still

[monica]

well my friend you are a brave man to be handle these things i have never trusted them and maybe they know that , lol,

but if you get bitten to much the anti venom dose not work any more, or it can kill you is that right, ?

im glad that you dont have there venom sacks removed i disagree with that

frogs and lizards they cool, i like them, they happy

[Guest]

it varies ref the anti venom on the toxics involved but varies on indviduals , most my stuff was/is non venomous or rear fanged

[monica]

oh nice all but missed hooded ha, so she is the special one, would be great to have one but they scary me,

but ever still if they bite it hurts,
