Leeches smeeches ... snakes ... none of these are scary compared to Snowman in his mankini fossicking! Shudders just thinking about it  :o
Thanks Jamo.
I might have to find a photo, but it should be etched into your brain. :)

 This isn't a fossicking  story , but it gave me a nasty fright , I was out for a walk one day I was  about to put my foot down when I heard an ominous  hiss . I looked  down and I saw a red bellied black curled up on a rock  , just sunning himself needless to say I back off in a hurry

Digging for rock crystal at Millingandi, came onto a nice clump of crystals and was emptying the vogue, when all of a sudden a lovely little black head followed my hand out, well the crystals went in the air and its the fastest I have moved in years.  I didn't see were the snake went but was very careful where I put my hands after that. :o
