Just turned fifty years old ten days ago, and got the most beautiful birthday present ever from my companion!
I do not know how long she has been saving for this one, but I guess I am a lucky man.
Blaser R8 Selous, 416 Remington magnum, my dream....
I went to Africa hunting in April, but now have no other choice that book another hunt beofre year's end...

Happy birthday and congrats on the Blaser. It's nice to have a wife that buys you guns instead of neckties, isn't it...

Happy birthday, and congratulations for that present !
 
now you can use that rifle on a cape buffalo hunt...go get em.
 
Very nice! And yes you are now compelled to book a buffalo hunt at the minimum. However you'd be a perfect clod if you didn't take that wonderful woman with you!!
 
Congrats on the Birthday gift!
 
Your woman is a "keeper" Happy B-day.

Aha!
That's the plan, she went with me last year for elephant, even though she is not very keen on hunting... I guess close to a perfect woman, and beautiful by the way!!!
I guess I must have been good in a previous life to have such a good karma...

A two minute video I made of our recent Safari. I think it turned out well
