Not to mention Scarry.

But why the Telephoto Paul, you could have been close enough milk it?

Definitely one to avoid as there's no Loreal scale.

Now, how can it be that, after diligently checking the BOM radar and seeing no showers within cooee of home, as soon as I took several items out of the camper trailer and place them on the ground, out in the open, a single black cloud can form directly overhead, in seconds and dump several millimetres of water on said items?

Same here, just after I put some electrical items in the trailer, not expecting rain.

Just didn’t have a macro handy at the time

I will happily play with 415v all day,but when the nearest antivenin is around a two hour drive away on dirt roads,for some reason,I would rather not push the limit.

About 5 yrs ago I saw a massive one that was,at a guess,well over 7ft long,near the shearer’s quarters on the property.

About a month later the property caretaker told me he had killed the largest one he had ever seen,and he had lived in the area for over 65 yrs.

The locals use a made up wire as a whip and hit them just behind the head.

Can't blame you for that. 2 hours! Blimey!

A nice clear image from a tele, unusual if one's mitt is shaking like buggery.

With 415v at least you know it is there & are wary.
Each summer here, all we seem to get/see are the Mount Lofty Copperhead. A nice looking snake actually. Apparently they can't open their gob wide enough to do much harm to a human unless they get you on the skin web twixt thumb & forefinger but they can do harm to dogs, cats etc but who puts out their hand to pat a snake anyway?

Highland or Pygmy ones I know not, I just give any Joes a wide berth when seen.

Men with 'masculine' facial features more likely to cheat, say researchers.

Cheating men can be spotted by their face type, study suggests

And if you look like a pansy you won't?

[DiscoMick]

I'm not quite sure how I feel about this survey.

Square-jawed superheroes like Superman and Captain America must look like repeat adulterers to women, if this research is correct.

[4bee]

Mick, with their supposed prowess, staying power & skills they can afford to be repeat adulterers.
