Good job they are not deadly, just the most poisonous snake in the Uk. He payed for it though, I turned him into a belt. Had him round my waist for years. |

I'm a little paranoid of fire though, ever since the day I left a candle burning overnight and nearly burned the house down. And so that's another opportunity for me to get on my soapbox and tell all you lovely people who I've come to know and love to CHECK YOUR SMOKE ALARMS. Ours saved our lives!

I can't remember his name though, so you probably aint got a clue who I mean LOL |
