Good Day "Cruiser Bob"

We are all now back from our long awaited safari with Cruiser Safaris and I have a few things I need to ask and tell you about.

First off I was so disappointed after my safari that I have had to seek medical advice for deep depression.  My doctor tells me I'm suffering for what's called "Safari Withdrawal" and Mate that's your fault!  Heck I wish you had told me this would happen, I would have stayed home, watched TV and mowed the grass!

I know we booked for a 12 day safari but I'm sure we only got 6 days!  The time went so quickly are you sure the days in Africa are as long as Down Under?  The food was too good and there was way too much of it, I'm sure I put on 10lbs!  Now my clothes don't fit, your fault again.  Then there is my room, it was too big and way to clean with a big comfortable bed, I could not sleep trying to work out if I was on safari or just dreaming about it.

Our PH and Trackers were always on time in the mornings with a clean and restocked truck, with a smile and ready to help, it's not natural to be so happy that early.  They found so many trophy size animals it all but made me sick trying to work out which one I should take.  This would give me nightmares later that night dreaming about it.  I even took quite a few record book animals, now I'll have to buy a copy and learn to read.  You and Pieter have a lot to answer for "Cruiser Bob".

Then there is my taxidermy bill not to say anything about the cost of adding an extra room to my games room to fit my new trophies on the walls of it.  I wish you had told me before hand that most hunters fill there trophy bags 99.9% of the time!  By the way my 14" warthog now makes my entire big pig collection look so small I'll have to shoot some bigger ones!  More money to be spent on hunting, "Cruiser Bob" my wife would like to get her hand on you boy!

What ever you do, don't put my name down to use as a hunting reference as I'll have to tell them the truth!  That I had the hunt of a life time with totally professional outfitter and PH's all organized by the best booking agent in the US "Cruiser Bob".  That at nights I now fall to sleep with the visions of two huge kudu bulls eyeing each other off for a fight with kudu cows and warthogs all around them.  There is no way I would let another hunter suffer "Safari Withdrawal" like I have had to go through.

Yours in Deep Depression!

PS

Book me into hunt in 2008 will you "Cruiser Bob" my new therapist tells me I must confront my nightmares.  I would come over sooner but I need to shoot some bigger pigs thanks to YOU.

My nightly nightmare, which one do I shoot?
