My dh poo.
Would rather find a python. .

Dd found a corn snake in our garden a few years ago.

She called me over to look at something in the strawberries whispering 'mummy look , snake' as if it was the most normal thing in the world!

Royal pythons are completely harmless. I'd quite like to find one in my bathroom.

ImCatbug · 04/09/2017 20:15

Oh look at it! What a gorgeous baby! I hope he recovers quickly from the scale rot, I do love pythons.

godconfusion · 04/09/2017 20:19

Ah thank you lovely people for coming and joining me. Ginall round

I know he's not dangerous... but I wouldn't expect him in my loo. He's rather unexpected

Poor snake. Bet he felt quite traumatised too.

I love my snake and would be upset if he got lost like that

Ratbagcatbag · 04/09/2017 20:21

Awwww. He's lovely. I want him. :)

Poor thing being bathed in bleach. :(

PatMullins · 04/09/2017 20:23

Why did I click 🤢

chitofftheshovel · 04/09/2017 20:23

I would shot myself if I lifted the lid and saw a snake.

NotACleverName · 04/09/2017 20:24

Look at his adorable little face! I really want a Royal Python.

Tailypo · 04/09/2017 20:24

Aw!! Poor python :( hope he has a quick recovery.

Gileswithachainsaw · 04/09/2017 20:25

Why do I never get snakes

He's gorgeous glad he's ok

Soubriquet · 04/09/2017 20:25

Since there is already a trigger warning...my albino king snake Fluffy

Yes I really called him Fluffy

Trigger warning sssnake
chitofftheshovel · 04/09/2017 20:25

No, that would be an extreme reaction. I'd shit myself..!

RedGrapeCornSnake · 04/09/2017 20:33

I'm with the others who are sulking that they don't find free pets. DH has said no to another snake (we have a corn snake) I'd love to add a royal Python to our menagerie. How could anyone not like that adorable face?

godconfusion · 04/09/2017 20:36

I think when you're 5 toilet trips are things you've only just got to grips with going alone...

To find yourself sharing that with a snake... and then the ensuing drama of your parents having to call someone out to remove him...

Would kind of fuck up toileting as ever being relaxing again...

FUCK! Time to burn the entire house down Shock
I think I would actually be sick and struggle not to faint and would have to sell the house since burning it down isn't legal.

godconfusion · 04/09/2017 20:42

I need the loo... can I have a hand hold? Blush

I know there's statistically little chance of finding a snake but...

Distractotron · 04/09/2017 20:43

My kids would be so excited if this happened!! The poor thing though, hope it wasn't damaged by the bleach.

godconfusion · 04/09/2017 20:44

There isn't one...

I've found a snake in my bed when travelling in SE Asia. I also found my friend's missing snake in their cutlery drawer when I went to get a teaspoon out.

Never found anything other than the usual floaters etc. in a toilet though.

Maudlinmaud · 04/09/2017 20:46

I'm still triggered from the rat in the toilet thread. Damn you godconfusion, you've given me more to be unnecessarilyworried about.

FadedRed · 04/09/2017 20:46

Soubiquet wow, he is very beautiful.
Saw the picture on the news site. T'was somewhat alarming

Maudlinmaud · 04/09/2017 20:48

Soub just how many pets do you own?
