Close Call


I dread even to blog about this. Last week I was walking down a 4x4 track, deep in thought, and didn't notice a large Cape Cobra lying on the parallel track. It reared up high and danced, making a kind of grating noise. I first noticed it about one metre away from me. By some estimates, only one in two people survive a Cape Cobra bite (the best estimate: four out of five).
