You laugh! I had the missus convinced they truely were real. She is English though, so can be forgiven I suppose. It was years after we'd first met and we were driving through the Kangaroo Valley when she suddenly pipes up "This looks like bad Drop Bear country!" I looked at her, and could clearly see she was serious! I nearly crashed the car I was laughing so hard! [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

The thing is though, after living over here in England for years, a lot of Poms think we spend most of our time fighting of poisoness snakes and spiders and maneating Croc's and Sharks. So they are easily led! Not that I do this to our english cousins of course! Well.......perhaps a little. [img]graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
