Well........ I'm supposed to be loolking after my friends menagerie(?spelling?) this week whilst she's on hols, among which are a tank full of stick insects & a couple of land snails yuk!!!!! I've coped ok so far, but she did warn me to be gentle with the snails, but you have to lift em up & squirt them with water, and there was all this great lump of poo hanging off it, & just as I thought I was gonna chuck up there was a very small, but audible..........CRUNCH.......Oh dear!!!! :0S Joan |
