If it was the right snake at the right price distance wouldn't be an issue, I would pay for a courier.
I have had some of my corns sent to me by courier. My Royal I traveled 1 hour on the bus to collect and the 2 corns I am collecting tomorrow I will be collecting from a central London tube station! I don't drive but I try to get to places still via public transport.

I'm travelling from Wakefield to Halifax tomorrow ... that's only 15 miles, but I'll set off at 12.25 and with luck I'll arrive back 4 hours later ... That's West Yorks public transport for you ...
The snake will be tucked up snugly, just hope she doesn't get too bored. I suppose it's an afternoon out.
Just don't let any inquisitive person crowd me and pester me about what I've got in that polybox ... Clear the bus lol!  |

LOL - more likely get turfed off the bus and have to get a taxi!
Mind you, it'd be quicker - there's only one bus an hour and it takes the scenic route ...
....Can't wait .... |

I am bringing 2 news corns back later today on the train. I will be hiding them away in tubs and I hope no one asks whats in them. Not sure how they might react if they knew the truth 
I brought Bella back on the bus, in a pillowcase all snug inside my coat. I was happy no one knew she was there! |

Hi, hope you came back safely with your corns.
I got my snow stripe girl today (as you'll see from my sig) - brought her home in a pillowcase in a ventilated polybox - luckily the bus wasn't too crowded and I selfishly grabbed one of those front seats where no-one can sit behind you ('reserved for the diabled and elderly') ... well, get my bus pass next year, he he ...
(Boasted elsewhere I will be a pensioner in grunge, long tangly matted hair ... and snakebox ...) |
