Beware the snake under the table

“I don’t mind snakes. Growing up in South Africa there were a couple of snakes around … and I’m not talking just about the government!”  Trevor Rabin

“Always carry a flagon of whiskey in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake.”  W. C. Fields

“If I’m gonna be an old, lonely man, I’m gonna need a thing, you know, a hook, like that guy on the subway who eats his own face. So I figure I’ll be Crazy Man with a Snake, y’kno … And I’ll get more snakes, call them my babies, kids will walk past my place, they will run. ‘Run away from Crazy Snake Man,’ they’ll shout!”   Chandler from Friends

Seen under a table in a furniture shop in White River, South Africa … And don’t worry, it is stuffed (that’s its price tag in yellow).

You may know me in the blogosphere as "madderinmada", "Rambling with a Cantankerous old mule" or "Vicissitudes of a Cantankerous old mule". But that's all changed and here I am living life from behind my camera lens.

Welcome. I hope you enjoy the visit.
