Ahhhh...poor you, I'd have screamed the house down. Good you didn't get bitten!! Coul you get a Westie or a big cat to keep such animals away?

omg . I have a serious snake phobia which is why although dh keeps applying for Brissie jobs, I won't go. We're off to Noosa for 2 weeks in April and I'm pooping myself already about the thought of seeing one in the 'lush tropical gardnes' or our resort.

Thank God NZ is snake free - mice I can deal with.

just about recovered . just had 5 days at work and had lots of poor pomme jokes.. just before all the okker aussies went off screaming behind the desk! No cats here but the dog.. a lurcher who normally chases anything that moves thought that te snake was good for standing on???? til everyone was crowded around it then she wanted in on the action.. typical ! no further sightings .... now have to pack up the garage.. god knows what is in there...
