Its that time for the Qtrly Arms Fair, here in Sydney. I have been to shows throughout Australia, Canada, and the USA, and they all draw the same crowd! You never feel homesick.

Here, well there is no SA rifles, everything else is pretty much the same. Lotsa handguns, and mil eqpt etc, and related items. Edged wpns reloading gear etc, etc. Big too. It will take hours to see it all. Got 500 bucks to spend. What should I buy?

Well, went there with 1000 bucks to spend, and only bought admission. It was a good turn out, but nothing fancied me. I was dissapointed though.

As for the spiders (Atrax robustus) Sydney Funnel-Web Spider, yes I have had two run ins. One was crawling on my kitchen floor, and I had bare feet! No weather stripping here, so creatures can get in under the door.

Last night caught a huge 'sabre toothed' brown cricket on my ceiling in the bedroom.

My wife was freaking out. Shocking thing it was. The Sydney Funnel-Web, is the most deadliest spider in the world, its fangs can puncture your finger nail, and you can die within a matter of minutes. The good thing is, there is an anti venom for it.

My claim to fame is, I used to go out with this girl named Jane (of Vaucluse), who's Dad invented the anti venom. He was nighted by the Queen for getting it done. 'Sir Walter'. A medical genius, and former Dean of Medicine of UNSW. He did not like me, though.
