I don't believe it!

I can hardly believe that when I was little I actually had a favourite kind of snail; this kind. Because they are so stripey and, well, cute. I used to look for them on the way to school. No wonder I was usually late.

Sometimes when I'm gardening, I must confess, I like to lob snails over the hedge and listen with sadistic glee as they make a shell cracking smack on the road. But I couldn't do it to this one, after all, it is all stripey and, well, let's be honest; cute.
