To not let DD back in her room tonight? Freaked out.... what is this?

[tastylancs]

DH just gone away for three days, otherwise he would talk me down I’m sure. But right now it’s just me and the DC and I’ve opened DDs room to discover this.... nest? Chrysalis? It’s about 5cm x 3cm. Help!

Wow this thread!
A) it is hilarious
b) I had no fucking idea that you could get snails of this size just hanging around in the north of England.

I hope it goes in classics

I love the fact people are not RTFT and still coming up with suggestions 😀

Emma me too 😂😂😂

You’re going to have to start leaving lettuces out for Gerald now. He’s part of the family.

What a giggle ! Mind you, I would have dropped dead if been confronted with that !

at all your pet snail pictures, what does it feel like holding them? Are they cold and wet like I imagine? They are beautiful to look at, they really are but the thought of holding a massive one like that makes me tense up.

I love the auto correct up thread for Tupperware (tipper water)

Enjoy your feeedom Gerald!

I haven't finished reading the thread yet, as I'm currently lying in bed trying to explain to my confused husband why I can't breath from laughing...

PippilottaLongstocking picture is so small on my phone screen that when I glanced, I thought it was "wiggly toot" and that's the best way I've ever heard a snail described 😂

Right, back to reading the thread.

Looks like a snail

It's not Gerald it's Brian!

Snail.

Well done Biblio

Biblio - RTFT!

@RitaMills Yes, pretty much cold and wet, though they do warm up once they've been sitting there a while!

Once you've eased them off (shlooop!) your skin is lovely and smooth. Definitely don't need to kill them to make snail skin cream, just slap one on your face and bingo!

I think it might be a snail.

And that his name might be Gerald.

Cakedup - I think you will find it is a wasps nest and the OP needs to spray it with something 😁

That looks like the stuff of 1950's science fiction!

Missed your update OP but now fully caught up.

Goodbye Gerald!

This has made me want to watch Turbo now

Looking move to the outskirts of Edinburgh. Torn between East Lothian mainly North Berwick or West Linton. Are these commutable if we went to emes in Edinburgh?

Any advise on each area, shops, restaurants local facilities and schools would be much appreciated TIA

Emharri - you might want to start a new post in the Scotsnet section 😀 Although North Berwick is lovely and would be computable.

You're going viral!

I feel sick

Roo that is hilarious!! Our Gerald is hitting the big time! I must try and find him to tell him. DD thought she spotted him on the roof but I think she’s getting paranoid. She slept in my room again last night.

Ooo Gerald could have his own show! I wonder what made him/her go exploring?🐌🐌🐌
