Belated Introduction

[silversurfer]

Hello

I've been posting for a little bit now but haven't really got round to introducing myself.

What to say? I lived in AU for a couple years where I learned to ride, in London now, and a law student (apologies, ahem). I am the proud owner of a K6 SV650s which hasn't seen many miles as yet but that will all change as I have a bit of free time to donate to it this summer.

So that's about it really!

Ah, another snake lover eh?

Welcome to the mad house.

[silversurfer]

do you keep any? i had 4 pythons in oz (2 carpets, 2 spotted), none in UK. Did a lot of wild catching over there

[Baph]

do you keep any?

I have a 3ft Ball Python (aka Royal Python here in the UK). With a cage full of mice on top of the vivarium - nothing like fresh food.

A load of my friends keep snakes/spiders (and one has a couple of scorpions). Probably the most exotic thing I've handled would be a Mojave rattler (grumpy sodding thing that it is). It's always me that ends up sorting animals like that out, rather than friends taking them to the vets. :|

i love rattlers/vipers - need a strong pair of tongs and a big pair of cohones though!

[Baph]

tongs

Someone will need to remind me what tongs are... :lol: (my python decided he doesn't like tongs, he's crushed 3 pairs now... so we hand feed him - hold the tail & hope :lol:).

Call me old fashioned, but I think I'll just stick to the dog. Not a fan of snakes, almost look as evil as cats those things do! :smt087
