And here we have an amazing phenomenon. A newcomer seems to have arrived in the chimp population. Watch the ugly specimen gurn and wink with a big grin on his face. Since his arrival primate researchers have noticed a huge fall in the IQ of the chimp population. Remarkable!

Talking of primates!

Hmm. That SAS attack was quite funny so I will permit it.

 

[eek]

I thought this was going to be about politics as the girl opposite me has the most impressive rack.

Unfortunately she also bits her nails which has rather put me off.

 

[pacharan]

do the 'gorrillas in the mist' thing.

Oh, come come.

No need to go do far. Just get yourself a 3 month stretch in the Scrubs and you could do that every morning.

Ah, here comes CUK's resident knuckle dragger now. How goes that plan B of yours? Was it Lidl or Aldi your Bobs hit in the end?

Have heard that if you want to get on with the locals, in the same way as you would call people 'mate' in a pub, you should refer to them as 'mugu'.

Ah right, that'll be like that colloquial teuchter greeting you'll be hearing out in the Isles of Dobbers then, goes along the lines of:

'Yer maws got baws an yer da loves it'

Admittedly I'm a bit of a stick in the mud when it comes to travel, but ..

Uganda? What on _Earth_ do you want to there for?!

You'll be lucky to get out alive.

I wont even bother reading the rest of the thread but will say ..WHS !

Are you out of you rmind ?

If you are lucky to not get killed on the way to the gorilla safari by muggers, there are plenty of other ways like Ebola virus, disgruntled rebel sniper, killer mosquitoes, elephant trampling, mummy gorilla thinking you are perfect fodder to baby gorilla, baby gorilla wanting you as his pet and mummy gorilla abducting you etc etc.

Returning back to the original subject. I spent a while in Africa. This is pretty cool!

Except that's unlikely, since David Bellamy was a botanist

David Bellamy was born in 1933. He began lecturing in botany at Durham University in 1960, becoming a professor in 1982. He has written over 45 books on botany, ecology and environmental issues and has presented around 400 television programmes.

I think Uganda's fairly safe these days. Museveni might be an asshole, but he seems to have got the place under control, perhaps because he's less of an asshole than Idiot Amin.
