Jeez I'd be shedding frequent tears doing your job Ian. Sending good thoughts for them to pull thru. Wild native honey ... brilliant!

That stuff has incredible healing properties. Post us some pictures. Good luck Mate.

About that snake...WHOA!! Is that real? I mean, the longest snake ever confirmed (unless my knowledge is out-of-date) was a reticulated python that was 33 feet long. What's the size of that wallaby? I have a hard time believing that an olive python could ever grow much larger than 20 feet. Still, that picture is neat. Really, how long is that thing!?

No offense mate. I love toast with honey (and many other things). Seems like there is some national British pride in toast and I could never figure it out. American's put guns in racks and Brits do the same with Toast.

I like my toast warm so the toast rack confused me. And beans on toast .... good ... Full English ....

I use bread to soak up everything like a kitchen sponge! Beans, soup, stew...you name it.
