There is something inherently fascinating about Reptiles. When I was kid I was obsessed with seeking out Slow-Worms which look like baby snakes but are your basic lizard without legs. One time my dad told me he'd seen one dart under a shrub in our garden so I dived in there only to be faced with a Grass Snake - Britains biggest snake. I very nearly soiled myself.

Isn't David Icke the guy who thinks that Britain's Royal family, along with the Bush family and many other prominent Americans, are really "Lizard People", who can shape-shift to look like humans when they are in public and wish to avoid detection? If so, I've heard of that guy! I guess it would suffice to say that HE isn't a big fan of Randall Boggs, either, huh?
Speaking of Boggs, one of the members on our Boggs Board is in England, and she often laments the scarcity of reptiles in England. She's never even encountered a Grass Snake! She gets sorta jealous every time I post about catching a Corn Snake in my driveway(found one crossing the highway recently, but she's in shed, so once she changes her outfit, I'll post some pics), or post pics of alligators in the wild. I really do have to feel sorry for people who live in reptile-deprived areas, since finding a snake under a shrub in the garden is one of the highlights of any day for me! Grass Snakes are so cute, very much like our Garters, that would have been a great find. It is odd, though, that the belief in dragons is especially traditionally powerful in the British Isle, which have very few native reptiles themselves, and none that actually get to be large or impressive. There's only one venomous snake, the Adder, and it is not even life-threateningly venomous, but more lilke our Copperheads. The Celts of the British Isle had many tales of dragons, and this was before any contact with large, dangerous reptiles by any Brits, which would have been with Nile crocs and monitors during the Crusades.
