Do you you what the name of that show will be? He has been on in the U.S. for
about 3 months? I want to see the New Calendonia one to show my Leachys and
crested where they come from . LOL I would like to see the croc hunter go
there to. With O'shays there is some one as white as me but with out
Tattoos. LOL Shays show is a spin off of Steves, There about 4 shows now
with the same concept. Burke
