    I imagine the "tripod" was so named owing to his fondness for "bird" photography...and nothing more...

    Why does one of the most unpleasant human beings South africa ever produced deserve a picture?

    SAII ~ Of course. ;)

    JG ~ It is merely your impression he was 'unpleasant'. Perhaps you were a target of a barbed remark...?

    I realised that he was truly barking mad when I heard him give a speech advocating a scorched earth policy in the event of a Rhodesian defeat in the terrorist war
