Just thought I'd post this while waiting for Keith to emerge from his shower. Yesterday, we stopped for a quick break in the mountains and I found a snail - a real French edible-type snail. Not that I tried it, mind you. I took the photo and removed it to a place of safety. Lifelong member of the Snail Conservation Society, that's me.
A few moment before, we had squeezed the Range Rover through a ribbon-like route, only to come face to rear with a herd of cows being trundled along the lane to a nearby field.

LOL! I remember when they used to use dogs to do that, not tractors!
And I thought those on the Tour De France were bikers !!
I turn my back for five minutes - well, a week, and suddenly you're in France! Emily and Gareth's baby Giant African Land Snails came with us to Tenby on holiday, where they acquired a bigger tank (because they grow HUGE) and two more friends to share it with. I think the number of people who take snails on holiday with them is probably low.
I think 'low' is being optimistic, Daffy. If you discount the French, who probably take snails on holiday only as a snack to have on the journey, then I'd have to think you lot are probably.......well unique.
What a story to tell their little friends though as a trip to Tenby and back must've seemed like a journey to Alfa Romeo (or whatever the nearest star is) to a human.
So do I, Jay. :)
Lol, Ian.
Daphne, I think you could be right. In fact, you could be unique! I suppose I could have brought my snail back home but he might have had to have a pet passport. ;)
A snail once had a large letter "S" painted on his automobile.
When asked why, he said, "Now when I travel, people point to me and say 'Cor! Look at that S car go!'"
Right then. I'd better find something to do. Cheers!
Lol, Dale! :)
