I have renamed this thread - it is now called "Millipedes" instead of "Centipedes".
I kept mixing the two of them up but Strongy has ID'd them as Millipedes. Thanks Strongy xx

Nice Centipede photo Kedi, I don't mind the black ones like Millipedes but the brown ones that you find under stones give me the creeps  Alfie |

I found some more on holiday. I think they are millipedes and not centipedes.   |

Marvellous views kedi, how wonderful to have all those legs, would come in handy when working in the loft with not much headroom, and you would never slip over! ;D

Lovely pics Kedi,I think they are millipedes. All those legs might stop you falling over Dag but by the time you got all your shoes on it would be time to start taking them off again and just think of your cobblers bill ;D Alfie |

Unfortunately, Peter refused to hold it on it's back so I could get a good picture of all those tiny little legs. They look like they have been sewn on in pairs, don't they? These are the two best out of about 20 pics.   |

Generally the segments are more separated in centipedes and they are flatter. Millipedes are more rounded and the segments almost fused together and obviously they more legs.  |
