Yup ... I'm going to drive hundreds of miles again :rolleyes:. Will be spending some quality time at James' :D and ... of course ... I'll be relieving him of a wee radix :D ... if I survive this we'll also raid some local reptile shops .... :) we've also managed to line up a male Everglades ratsnake for Penelope. Joy ... have wheels .... will travel.

;) I've already been to halfords for their 3 for 2 on screenwash :rolleyes: as long as it doesn't freeze against the windscreen when I'm crossing the high ground again I'll be happy :D

It's because they've been salting the roads so much, then with the low, bright winter sun we're getting..... you're completely blind! I've filled my screen wash three times in a week! Mind you, I'm driving 300+ miles a day!

Damn James, I used to drive 100 round trip to the office, so I moved the office to my home!

300 a day, that's extreme. Hope they pay you mileage.

Beautiful set up ;)

:rolleyes: will do as soon as I can get the camera to behave. :D Good news is they all seemed totally unfazed by the change of scenery. Both everglades gobbled their pinky/fluffs right down ... the amazing thing is that Suzy :D our new radix had one too :eek: ... cut into strips of course.
