Small Copper

Continuing yesterdays snake story....The villa we stayed in had shutters on all the windows and the last job of the night was to walk round the balconies and close them all. Mrs Yr would then lock them from the inside....she had a little bit of trouble closing the shutter to th lounge but after a bit of effort it closed. When we woke the following morning I opened all the shutters but under the lounge one there was a pool of red. When I looked up there was a 5 foot snake with its head trapped in the window.......It must have been sat on the shutter watching tv with us through the open window. Never leave doors and windows open in a foreign country...you dont know what lurks out there
