Green Mamba
Posted: 11 Aug 2020 13:38
Hello Fellow Trols,
I joined the forum a few weeks ago in search for a remedy to our up-coming midlife crisis and persistent COVID19 depression. By a stroke of luck, we found a big green pill (aka Green Mamba) which I collected from Graham last Friday. We took her for a first spin on the weekend (see pics) and hope to start a more comprehensive treatment course in the Liuwa Plains as soon as budget and corona permits.
