Default OMG.....Brown snakes!!!!

Hi All

Though i'd just share this with you all cause i can't believe it myself.
I was on a training course on Friday, I got talking to an Ozzy woman an she said she lived in "The Bush", as we got chatting I was telling her how scared I was of spiders and all things like that... then....she told me it was brown snakes I should really be scared off....I said snakes don't bother me that much...she then said, well a brown snake just ate her DOG the other day!!!! OMG I said what size was you dog, she said about 16kilos. I just cant get over it!!! I asked her why didn't you rescue it, she said no point it was already dead with the bite!!!! Hope this doesn't scare anyone to much!!

My dog weighs about 16 Kg, but then he runs about 20 times faster than a snake, and is the biggest girls blouse in the world when it comes to scary things. He takes off like a rocket when a toad or snake appears.

So unless the snakes has skates on, it aint ever gonna get him.

iPom is an unknown quantity at this point

She was winding the poor British lass up. They can't fit a dog in... it would have to be in pieces to go down... and even then it would take weeks.

What sort of training course was it? If it was management, it was all about snakes...
