Oh yes,
Well I remember said morning..up and out of the swag, looking forward to another productive day of travel, I found time to partake of some nourishing breakfast.
A quick cuppa and it was time to take care of the more 'natural' bodily functions.
A wander down to a small gully, out of sight from my other camping companions, and aahhhh.
Standing there quietly contemplating nature and enjoying the scenery I glanced down to my left and found that I was actually peeeing on a bluddy big snake...........
Oh dear I thought, said snake does not look too impressed with his early morning shower. At this stage I did not bother to study the snake closely to determine type/sex/age or even if it was bleep off with me.
All of my bits did indeed retract, automatically I might add, and I decided that the other members of our troop may be interested in the local wildlife. So, quietly so as not disturb the wet 3metre snake I strolled up to
camp and gently let the others know that a photographic opportunity was available to those that were interested.
I then cleaned my teeth, changed pants and finished packing whilst all the others were ooohhhing and aaaahhhing about said snake. My job was done, I had found it...
Mick O may just remember the occassion slightly differently, but I can assure you my version is much more accurate......I think!!
