Do you know what 'make' it is?

When they shed, their eyes go milky, really weird to look at ...

From inside looking out it is a lovely day... however if one were to venture in to the outside one would wish to be inside again because of the chilli breeze...

You have snakes......... are they the nasty poisonous type? May rethink the holiday in Bulgaria

Yep Think its quite a few varieties but of them only 4 are venomous and only 2 of those non human friendly as far as we can make out, The other 2 have rear fangs (what ever that means).
We have only actually seen a couple since being here they give humans a pretty wide birth if they can. Which is a got job. M is not afraid of much but snakes she cant even watch on telly She found 1 in the house a few years back, shut the door chucked a towel down so it couldn't get back under it and called our builders who came back at 8pm to dispatch it. Apparently I was enjoying myself swaning around in the middle of some ocean earning pension tokens.

I have once flushed a little 12inch grass snake out of his hidey hole and he was pretty ****ed off and showed it for a little guy

Do you have 'Too Good To Go' app in IOM? Apparently it helps if you have an android phone also helps with cheaper shopping......

Catch yezz ave a nice day

@Turktowner looks like that will pop out an polish up.

Glad you think so, I wondered if it might. Are we being real here or just taking the P in a not very nice way?
Would have to take it off apply a little heat and a bit of gentle persuasion I think.
Wot do others think?

 

[Stanleysteamer]

Afternoon folks

Done some more work in the garden mainly clearing crap to get ready for the work to be done.
While clearing away an area noticed somebody had made themselves at home and had left with a shiny new skin and left his old 1 with us
View attachment 237708

Have just taken delivery of the toy and the list of his jobs is now being prioritized.
Have now downed tools for the day, as have to knock up some tato salad and coleslaw to go with the Duck breast for tea.

It will be shorts and possibly no shirt tomorrow, hoping the sun keeps on showing up .

Well you only need about 999 more before you can make those boots you always fancied!

We have creeper on the front of our house in Fr which i have to cut back every year, tugged on a bit once and a grassnake was what i had in my hand. He was about 5' long. Big beggar. whirled him round my head and chucked him onto the neighbouring field.
Also found a big one living in our pool-house on a ledge. Had to poke him quite hard to get him to move.
All good fun!

Pour a kettle full of boiling water over it, it may pop straight out ...

Trouble is it would fall apart if I picked it up, and if you think I am going after the real thing. I will stick with the Moo cow 1s thanks

M wont even go and look at it. so if the wind hasn't blow it away I will make it disappear tomorrow .

Ffing hot here!
Just had a nice sit out in it with Wifey for a beer, then panicked as realised i had forgotten about going for my second jab.
Fortunately realised in time.
4:50 pm, rush hour in both directions.
So better set off soon.
Wifey went to Hygenist today, said they have all sorts of vacuum cleaners/ fan things set up. To suck the air away from in front of the patient and the tooth bashers' faces.
Must make an appt for a check up since they are doing them now.
Chicken Blanquette thing tonight, yet another new recipe Wifey is having a go at. (Tis one benefit of lockdown, she has pushed the boat out quite a lot recently cuisine wise.)
See you all later!
