Heading off on the African holiday she always wanted, Tina didn't expect to get this close to nature.



The doctor had been adamant. No bungee jumping, no skydiving, no scuba-diving... He'd given me a list of things I couldn't do on holiday - but he hadn't said anything about white-water rafting. Although I was five months pregnant, I wasn't about to lose my sense of adventure.

We'd been looking forward to our exotic adventure for ages, when, three months before we left, I discovered I was pregnant.

To say I was shocked was an understatement. We were thrilled but we decided not to cancel our dream trip. I knew there would be a few things I couldn't do, but if I was careful, what could go wrong? So with my 21-week bump proudly showing, we arrived in Africa. Our holiday was now a babymoon - a final holiday for the two of us before I gave birth - and I was going to make sure I enjoyed every minute.

'What about a bushwalk?' Jarrod suggested. The plan was to get up close to the local wildlife and perhaps even meet some tame lion cubs in a private game reserve.

There were about 12 of us on the hike. When we got to the game reserve the guides lined us up in a semicircle to introduce us to the animals.

I couldn't believe it when three 17-month-old lions, standing at around waist height, appeared and starting weaving between us. Each lion had a handler who carried a stick and a gun, just in case, and a bag of treats as a reward for good behaviour.

What a beautiful creatures, I thought as a lioness walked towards me, her caramel-coloured coat gleaming in the sunlight.

Then suddenly she flung her paws around my right leg and started clawing me! Her giant jaws clamped around my calf and she pulled me towards her. I lost my balance and fell.

Immediately, the guides began hitting her with sticks to get her off. Although they succeeded, it was too late.

'I've been bitten,' I cried as the guides quickly ushered the rest of the lions away.

I was confused when I looked down at my leg. My tracksuit bottoms weren't torn and there was no blood. Perhaps I wasn't injured. Then Jarrod was by my side. He pulled up my trouser leg and something pale and meaty fell out. A lump of chicken? I wondered. The lioness must have been eating it when she attacked me.

Then it hit me. That piece of chicken was actually a chunk of my right calf! And it was about the size of my hand.

I stifled a scream as Jarrod tried to keep me calm. A few minutes later a truck pulled up and I was loaded into the back.

'Take this,' one of the guides said to Jarrod, handing him something wrapped in cloth. 'The doctors might be able to reattach it.' Somewhere in the back of my mind it dawned on me that Jarrod was holding a piece of my leg.

The journey to Victoria Falls Hospital passed in a blur but half an hour later, we arrived and I was given a local anaesthetic in my leg and some antibiotics to fight off any infections.

Doctors rinsed my leg and put a gauze pad over the wound.

'The wound is too big to stitch,' they told me. 'You'll need to go to Johannesburg for a skin graft.'

I don't think I had any idea how bad the wound was. I hadn't seen it. But poor Jarrod had, and he made the decision that we were returning to Australia.

The next few days passed in a haze. I must have been in shock and all I could think about was my unborn baby. Would he or she be okay? I desperately hoped so.

I was flown to Johannesburg and spent the next three days at Sunwood Hospital, where doctors gave me another anaesthetic and scraped the dead tissue out of my wound.

After the operation, Jarrod and I flew back to Melbourne, where I was immediately taken to Box Hill Hospital.

'You're going to need more surgery,' the doctors warned.

But what about my baby? Surely all the drugs I'd been given weren't good for it?

The doctor was grave. 'If we don't operate the wound could get infected and you could lose your leg or worse,' he said. 'But if we do operate you could lose your baby or go into early labour.'

I started shaking. My dream holiday had turned into a nightmare. I knew if the wound became infected my baby's life would be in danger too. It was a horrible decision, but eventually I agreed to have the operation.

The next day, in a two and a half hour operation, surgeons peeled the top layers of skin from my upper thigh and used them to fill the hole in my right calf.

When I came round my first thought was for my baby. I was relieved learn he or she was okay.

It wasn't until a week and a half after my surgery that I finally plucked up the courage to look at my wound.

The patch of skin was red and lumpy and there was a huge dent underneath. Not exactly pretty. But I was just thankful that both my baby and I were still alive.

Back at home, we were contacted by a representative from the park that ran the bushwalk, and he apologised for what had happened. We were told that the lioness involved was no longer allowed to take part in the tour, and had been moved to another enclosure for breeding. I was relieved.

I was finally released from hospital two weeks later, and four months on, I gave birth to my daughter Georgina, weighing 3.3 kilos.

I've been left with a huge scar on my leg but I know it could have been so much worse.

When Georgina is old enough I'll tell her all about the day Mummy was almost eaten by a lion.

Letter sent by the President of Real Madrid,
Florentino Pérez, to Joseph Blatter at 12:23
p.m.
Dear President,
We were surprised to read your remarks
concerning our player Cristiano Ronaldo
and his chances of being crowned Ballon
d’Or and FIFA Player of the Year winner;
this has caused great disappointment among
the Real Madrid family because these
misguided and unacceptable comments were
made by the President of World Football’s
leading Authority.
On the one hand, they are unfair because
they are made about a player who is
respected the world over by millions of
fans, and not just Real Madrid supporters.
He is undeniably one of the greatest
footballers that the world has ever seen.
The comments are also disrespectful to him
as a person as, on the other hand, he
embodies sporting values in the eyes of
society which is in genuine need of the kind
of example that he sets; finally, it is our
understanding that your remarks may
determine the vote of those whose
responsibility it is to decide on the winner
of this accolade.
We, at Real Madrid, a club which has a
special connection with FIFA in view of our
position as a founding member, are
profoundly disappointed by the whole
episode and, as President of Real Madrid, I
want you to know that we condemn your
comments, which is why we would ask that
you retract them to make up, to the extent
possible, for the damage caused both to the
player and the institution that we
represent.
Yours Sincerely,
Florentino Pérez
Letter sent by the President of FIFA, Joseph
Blatter, to the President of Real Madrid,
Florentino Pérez, at 16:12 p.m.
Dear President:
I received your letter earlier today and was
surprised by the content contained therein.
Firstly, I would like to point out that at the
ceremony held last Friday at Oxford
University, no discussions were held about
the aspirations of any player with regard to
the FIFA Ballon d’Or. At the end of my
speech, and in response to a question about
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, the
moderator asked me to choose between the
two and, at that moment in time, having
stated that Messi is the kind of son that any
mother would like to have, I finally gave
his name. However, I would like to make it
quite clear that it is my opinion that
Cristiano Ronaldo is at the same level as
Messi and that both are extraordinary
players, each in his own way.
I regret that this situation at a university
ceremony has caused you so much distress
and I would like to apologise for it. It was
never my intention to cause discomfort or
show a lack of respect to Real Madrid FC,
one of it players or its support, not only
because it is the founding club of FIFA but
also because it is a club that I have
followed and admired since I was a child.
Kind Regards,
Joseph Blatter.

davseun2ta: skillful players are much in chelsea

Chelsea fc is not the best club in England

Though I am presently using tecno to ping but was a constant bb user since 2011. When I switched to tecno I didn't really enjoy whatsapp for the following reasons
1. Privacy is so poor in such a way that you will just see anybody on your chat and I so much hate the last seen feature cos people will be disturbing you and still blame you for not replying them.
2. Typing on bbm is more efficient than on whatsappdont know if anyone has ever noticed this... Irrespective of the keyboard of your device, they are different.
3. Present Status of whatsapp affects the operation of the phone.. try putting your status in offline.
4. Viewing profile picture is not so good as the picture will have to load for some seconds before it can be clear.
5. The messenger comes with an expiry date
