OK ... I found the problem ... twas as we suspected a mis-quote ... "the snakes are actually close to 1.4 stone"* in weight.



Plus, the critters are not "on loan", they're Paul's.



I'll be going down tomorrow to take a boo at them .... and I'll try to get some half-decent pics up.



I trust that the protocols for handling bushmasters and newts are similar? .... similar in that each as a vowel in their name!!
