I spent most of my money on fishing, booze, and women. The rest I just wasted.

yip, common as mud. So does Johan own the FB chain? I bought the most amaizing book there a while ago, Venomous snakes of Africa by Maik Dobiey & Gernot Vogel. One of the most beautifully illustrated books I have ever seen. Would highly recommend it. Have you paged through it T?

Maik and Gernot's book is very nice, I have a few photos in it. You should look at Gernot's Asian book in the same format, also very nice.
