I have read in the news that an 8ft Python has allegedly strangled and bitten a 2-year-old girl after 'Escaping' from its terrerium and into the girls bedroom where the attack took place. The owner Never even had a prmit/license to keep one.

In our newspaper, it was stated that the poor child was killed!
I really can't understand that people keep such things as pets, especially when there are children in the house.

I was, but would rather have Yvonne for the simple reason she cuddles where a Boa might have a crush on me. ;D

For the first time in over 50 years today, I saw what I know as a Slow-Worm, but it sure wasn't moving very slowly. It must have been a good 2 feet in length and I have to give credit where it is due and to my mate who spotted it just ahead of us while on the Bramley Line following a bit of track-clearing today.

Oh, I've never seen one either and I didn't know that they grew that big. I wonder where the name came from if they can move so quickly?

I have seen plenty of them, all in my father's garden and usually about 10 to 12 inches long, didn't know they can grow as long as that.

I DO Apologise folks, but after checking it out, it turned out to be another Grass Snake and the second one I've seen about the track.

Right beside the adder's eye, is a Bluebottle, that didn't deter it from eating the mouse.
