isn't he cool - Snowdrop named him after "Piltdown Man" but I thought SD said Pilkdown so he has been Pilks ever since.

We got him from, of all places, a B&Q - there was only one and he looked so sad so we took him home

I got some 'Easter Island' and 'Inca' chaps from B&Q last year. Worth keeping an eye out!

Piltdown man now that's an idea bury a few bones here and there over lottie and watch them nice little archaeologist men run in with spades and sieves at the ready. With a bit of luck by the time they realise the bones are from last Sundays roast and Friday nights take away they will have lottie dug so just call in Time team

*see piskie stare at pilks

I don't think it is but would be happy if it were, I adore snakes - a pal of mine has 7 and she took a picture of me with them all wrapped around me at the same time .....two of which were Boas and I'm only little but it was a great experience and then .....she lost the picture
