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.
