Apparently not true. Studies have been done recently which shows that they are more venomous later in the season.

Either way, I'm not planning on getting bitten regardless of the time of year.

Yep, lake just round the corner.....with big warning signs about them everywhere, but this was the first I've seen. Not used to snakes in England - think I'd seen one grass snake my entire life.

My youngest was standing on a chair until it was caught......inside the house.

What was inside the house? Where he was on the chair or where the snake was caught?

That's just it - snake was outside, she was inside, and she was still so scared she felt the need to get up on the chair and stay there until it was caught.

Hey Jeff
Im sure Elaine is well aware of snakes,especially that 1 eyed trouser snake that keeps chasing her
