And they call it…
Okay, enough with scaring the pants off you all… so sorry about that. It hardly ever happens, really. … In my defence, I really didn’t quite understand the effect of unleasing an image of the deadliest snake in the world…

‘What the?‘ Wednesday… . Dash was utterly mesmerised at the local show by one display in particular… . He stood in this exact pose for about half an hour during this particular demonstration… . Can you guess what it was?…
