Sorry I've been incommunicado for a couple of days - daughter's 21st birthday! - my thanks to all for the links and for restoring my faith in my memory! I'll pass them on.
'Gator? That's a Queensland croc' ... who may or may not be made of fibreglass, I ain't talkin' (^V^) The most impressive I've seen was the stuffed carcass of a 6m croc at a museum in Darwin over 20 years ago. I remember it distinctly because it said that the feet came from a carcass of equal size found on the Mary River. "What was the name of that river we were fishing on yesterday, Mal?" Quoth I to my brother in law? "The Mary River, why?" says he. "No reason." Such a beautiful place, who would have known?
