Moved from 'On The Road' - that's just down the road from where I live

This is odd. Did they they allow the Python to roam free in their garden, or perhaps just tethered to a tree? Surely it was in a cage, pen, enclosure of some sort? Or maybe the oddballs that own it take it for walkies?

Oh dear, where am I living?

Yesterday it's news about cats being eaten by snakes. Today's news is about kids using snakes to mug people http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/bristol/8192209.stm

Why did they bother with the knife amnesty?

Reminds me of a Lady who appeared on a TV program a few years back about keeping snakes as pets and suggesting that owners have a basic undestanding of what triggers the 'Feeding reflex' in large reptiles.

Anyway she was from 'Up North' and actually did used to take her large python for a 'Walk' in the park - it used to disapear up trees and she would shout 'come down you daft bugger' and similar things at it - until one day it tried to strike at her scull with the two large teeth they have designed for the purpose...

Hillarious
