I'm with MR, it does look very human when it is stood up.
Amazing the power of a viral video and the impact it has had on visitor numbers.
Nice read on Wojtek too. |

| Glad to hear she is doing well. It did sound like something very nasty. Not like you can rest that part of the body is it? |

Thanks for the DPack. It wasn't something I thought I'd try but I'm always interested in finding new things that you might be able to eat.  |
