There we were….sitting in the lounge watching a programme on TV when I noticed Bagheera had brought in a ‘present’ for us. I calmly say “Wouter, isn’t that a snake” at the same time as the chief character pulls a ruddy great big gun out of his car boot. No response from any of the three people closest to said snake. I try again.. this time with a little more urgency in my voice “Isn’t that a snake”…. nothing.
Eventually….. Wouter decides to look down and this is what he found.
‘k so it isn’t exactly the biggest snake in the world…. but honestly – my family are evidently useless in a crises. Their excuse? They thought I was talking about the ruddy great big gun being hauled out of the boot. I ask you!
Wouter reckoned if we put it back in the garden, the cats will just find it again so he stuck it in a glass jar and was going to release it somewhere this morning.
