    I know you have a lot of pets on that property of yours Trudi, but couldn’t you have bought a chicken, or a guinnea pig, or something else less DEADLY from the pet shop????? You’ve got b—-s girl!! lolol!!!

  • Trudi ~

    Hmmm! Well THAT’D work!!!!

  • Lenny La Rue, IPA

    Lenny La Rue, IPA, 3 months ago

    That’s it. No skinny dipping in Oz. None at all. Ever. Good grief! How big WAS this monster? And if you tell me about 6 inches and it really is a macro, I’ll still be highly impressed because it looks positively LETHAL. Only something with no fear whatsoever would open an eye slowly to see a stranger approach! Ditto Magee’s comment on your additional anatomical features!!! :-O

  • Trudi ~

    Trudi ~ in reply to Lenny La Rue, IPA’s comment, 3 months ago

    He was about 12 ft long l think only small in comparisom to some!! and it is’nt a macro,it’s a crop l was at least three feet away from him!

    Thanks for commenting Lenny!
