Hello Katherine,

Before seeing them either two or three years ago I wouldn't have had the slightest inclination of wanting to be within a mile of a snake but now I certainly have different feelings towards them.

Give it a go you never know you may grow to love them.

Regards

John

I can't - the idea gives me severe panic attacks. When I dream about one, I will wake up in a hefty degree of distress with my body itching all over and sweating profusely. I'll be hyperventilating, shaking and crying as well. I am on the 'extreme' end of the extreme category of phobia regarding snakes.

Driving between Susworth and East Butterwick a very fast flying raptor type bird flew over the Trent bank and past the car then between two houses and onto the fields behind, by the time we had stopped it had gone.
