Grandma's key

Ni hao!

The Giant African Landsnails are even more exciting than expected. Last week I cleaned out the tank and put some new moss in for them. They all went crazy and hung upside down from the lid. I spoke to the guy who lent them to us and he said they were being stroppy because they were cross with me. I took a firm 'like it or lump it' attitude with them and it turned out that they actually liked the moss. In fact, they liked it so much that they had a very busy weekend laying lots of eggs. There was me thinking that the science lesson on snail mating was a wasted hour!

I know it's a little evil, but I also enjoy how much the snails freak some people out. It makes me chuckle to myself when people get the heebie jeebies over them. Ok, so it's a lot evil. Frigging funny though.

10 more sleeps until I'm done x

P.S. I read an article in the paper at the weekned about a family who bought a zoo. It made me want a zoo.
