Because next year when I send out my xmas pressies I'm getting my sodding snails to deliver them, they'll be a damned sight faster than royal sodding mail! *grrrr*

I posted off a parcel (from the post office, so I knew it had correct postage) on the 15th of december from Bmth to Oxford...it arrived today ^^

Lesson learned, next year it'll be special delivery tbh, though i am suspicious that this is why they are so bloody slow and useless its to get people to spend money using special delivery in the first place!

Ha bloody calculating posties I'm on to you!!

rofl you'd have shit if i'd posted when my bull whip got delivered then i guess?

no its nothing kinky hehe its a prop for dress up day at the library of all places! We're doing a special event based upon Conan Doyles book "the lost world" and have been asked to go in costume (they said as victorian ladies but I said blow that, I'm going as Roxton!...victorian lady indeed pfft!) and seeing as I already have safari shorts & shirt, hiking boots and a stetson...though I thought they might disapprove if I took me replica hand gun so ordered a bull whip off ebay.

and people say libraries are dull...HA!

YeeeeHaw!

Which one is Gary, and which one is Gary?

Because i think Gary is trying to escape (or it might be Gary)

do you have to squish their babies all the time? :(

nah (I couldn't do it), they lay eggs sometimes when they're feeling frisky (and yes, snails do get frisky they wizz about the tank like very slow slimey missiles) but the eggs never hatch. It is interesting to see all the unhardened eggs under their shells when they get at a funny angle though. If they did hatch the guy at the pet store said he'd but them from me for like 10p each.

Eddie, Gary is the one with the pokey up eyes and the brown shell and Gary is the grey dude with the head and tail...Ok?

of the eggs? I don't have any, I think it is too cold for them at the moment because they seem to shoot them out at a rate of notts in the summer lol like small slimey BB guns.

be even more embarrassing if you met them at a party and ... no tbh it'd just be embarrassing to go to a party where the other guests were molluscs tbh you'd feel shellfconscious
