Ugh scary buggers, I swear the one I saw last summer up the road was the size of an anaconda!Bruce Gonsalves wrote:The little basturds had snuck under a primary door which has a rusted frame, then fallen down.

I don't believe they could get back out. The cellar has an old 50-60's fridge in there which they would have felt quite safe to hibernate.
It's a brilliant cellar that I intend to use. Open to suggestions other than storage.
Hmmm do you have any serial killer tendencies? Lots of good movie examples!
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

Lol, "Fairly dangerous". They don't get much more dangerous than the Eastern Brown. We don't seem to have them, just Tigers and Copperheads, which are bad enough, but they hang out around our dam and not near the house so we are co-existing at the moment.Bruce Gonsalves wrote: What to do? I've contacted a snake catcher, he turned up, bagged the Eastern Brown and left me $250 lighter. Fairly dangerous snake.
We took the plunge and moved about 3 hours in the opposite direction: We're in the Otways and loving it.
kill for collingwood!

The other night the missus is on the phone in the bedroom, suddenly she screams, I ran in and here's this tiny bat flying around the room. Round and round and round.
The Steve Irwin in me clicks in. Opens the window and tries to shoo it out, nah, it keeps doing these bloody circles around the room. Run out to the garage and grab a fishing net. Stuck the net up in its path and bingo.
Tiny bat, believe it's a Micro Bat, ugly thing. Anyhow let it go and hopefully we don't see its type back.

We aren't Greenies by any stretch of the imagination, but we love it here. Blue tongue lizards are frequent visitors.
Spoke to my antennae guy the other day and he told me some bugger had caught at least an 8ft long shark around a k down the beach and had gutted it in the car park and left the carcass to rot. Sounds like crappy out of towners.

I've got a decent size Blue Tongue living under the side porch steps that I made out of some paving tiles and brinks. Frightened shit out of me the other day when I went to go to the bin and saw this head, before I then saw the body and realised it wasn't a snake.
I've just got to remember now to look down before walking so I don't step on it.

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.
