Tis the season again
 Snakes are out and about in large numbers Touch wood not in my yard but have been in 2 out of 4 of my neighbours Was a very good season for them last year with all the mice around They are very healthy and large for this time of the year Just spent the last hour trying to coax a 2 metre brown out from under about 5 tons of brick rubble............... unfortunately didnt work and gave up after the light faded Hopefully the blue cattle dog marks on his backside might have done enough damage to make it deceased

Teach the wife
Hi Guys
Snakes are a problem every summer for those folk who live in the country and I don't care what the conservationists say. in my world if they come near the house, they are a dead snake. I thought I would share one of many encounters with you.  My wife called out to me that she saw a big brown near a lamb which had just been born. I said run up to the house and get my shotgun and some cartriges while I keep an eye on the snake. She came back with my .303 and a packet of .22 bullets. So I killed it with the rack I was leaning on. You can tell my wife is not into weapons.  Cheers Tony

Hey Tony - if you will leave .22 bullets next to a .303 rifle what is Jo expected to do.

Point the rifle and yell...'BANG'????
Ahhh, snakes: glad to have left them behind, but am now wary of (1) Bears -both Black and Grizzly (2) Cougars/Mountain Lions (3) Moose (4) Coyotes (5) Bison (yes, even they are known to maul stupid humans who show no respect).... and Americans say they are fearful of visiting Oz because of the nasties!! Go figure that one out.....  Mike C

I had to use a shovel again. I was erecting a tempoary electric fence around some freshly cemented gate and strainer posts when a four foot brown tried to occupy the pile of old wooden posts and stays that I had removed. Betty saw the snake and kept an eye on it while I grabbed the shovel.
