About that snake...WHOA!! Is that real? I mean, the longest snake ever confirmed (unless my knowledge is out-of-date) was a reticulated python that was 33 feet long. What's the size of that wallaby? I have a hard time believing that an olive python could ever grow much larger than 20 feet. Still, that picture is neat. Really, how long is that thing!?

No offense mate. I love toast with honey (and many other things). Seems like there is some national British pride in toast and I could never figure it out. American's put guns in racks and Brits do the same with Toast. :lol: I like my toast warm so the toast rack confused me. And beans on toast .... good ... Full English .... :drool: :wink:
