Idiot eco types in Essex organised an 'adder trail' in a place called Fingringhoe and Tom is staying silent on what it's famous for. The children were invited to find pictures of adders on the tail but then a young girl found a real one and after getting closer the poisonous bugger but her and she was rushed to hospital for anti venom. Luckily the hospital had not un out. What on earth is going on here people. You could not make it up. Adder Trail, Tom's arse.

I've got a pet python, tom.

Big heavy fellow.

He's nice though. You can kiss him.

Had him since he was an egg.

As long as he's well fed you can sleep next to him & he won't eat you.

Snake experts say different. If a python starts sleeping next to you then you notice the bugger has stopped eating then he is sizing you up for his next meal

I grew up in a very rural area where there are loads of them. They want nothing to do with us. They just want to get on with their snakey business and little snake day. They’re really cool to look at, and when I go back to visit I often see people slow down to let them cross the road.

I'm teaching a young dude how to fish, he was standing in the water up to his shins when one swam up to him and practically licked his leg. He jumped up PDQ and didn't go back in the water all afternoon. It was funny.

See them quite regularly during the summer on the coast path if you know where to look.

The snake, native to the UK, is not aggressive and only usually bites when really provoked, stepped on, or picked up. Bites can be very painful, but are seldom fatal.

Bit of a non story. Can we have one about a person biting a snake and how the snake has now been traumatised and is now seeking compensation for emotional distress.

I keep and breed American mid fang venomous coludrids.

Adders will be coming out of hibernation now so their venom reserves will be high. Adders will only make you have the feeling that you have a severe flu. They’re not usually leathal. Plus all venomous snakes have the inability to turn back on themselves when held by the tail. They need the momentum of a swing back and forth to get your hand. So a gentle shake of the hand will cancel out their momentum. Gras snakes do not need momentum and can turn back on themselves. If you do enter an area known for Adders wear a decent set of ankle high boots. All wildlife just honestly wants to be left alone.

You can find adders most months of the year on sunny days.

They properly emerge, in the south, in April. By May they are very mobile and usually get out of your way quickly.

The adder trail might be a good idea if it teaches people to look for them as a lot of people are bitten after standing on one. Most bites are on the ankles or wrists where someone has stood on or picked one up. Leave them alone and they'll leave you alone.

I would say Lynx Africa, but it seems to attract the snakes for measuring contests

You don't need a spray, keep your eyes open and don't pick them up.

It's supposed to get warmer in the next month and these buggers become more agile in the heat. They are snakes but cold blooded and rely on the sun to warm their blood. This is why they enjoy basking in the sun and recharge themselves and their poison glands. Buggers if out walking the dog
