Oh goodness, I don't know.

You see - as a born Australian - I know you kill them first and ask questions later. And when they're dead they tend to shrivel so you can't really recognise them.

But that's really nasty.

Right hard bugger aswell, I gave a flick with a biro to get it out of the front door and it reared up and started running towards me :eek:

Well, it couldn't run as fast as me :lol:
