OK, so a few may know me. I have a difficult relationship with my needs for royals, and stopping my wife killing me (or my bank account) when she finds out I bought another....
Anyways, today I came home with a nice chunky 1.6kg lady and a 500g Jungle Royal, thank god the wife was out, I need to find a home for them in my office sharpish, or I'm doomed   |

Ah. Well. Hasn't your missus ever been on a bit of a spending spree and come home saying, 'I just had to have it/them'? We all have our weaknesses, and yours just happens to be snakes.
Also you could point out that these are an early birthday/Christmas present, and there's nothing you'd far rather have.
Also that they were an absolute bargain; if you hadn't bought them then and there, with the present vogue for royals, you could have ended up paying twice as much, because you really needed that breeding female and the jungle will create some great morphs and end up paying for itself. Dig out some really pricey ads for comparison.
I think she probably knows you so well that she won't really be surprised lol. Good luck! |

| I'd go with the they were rescue snakes from the Gap Belt Factory, you just couldn't see them turned into a fashion accessory so you snuck in to Gap HQ through an air duct, abseiled down and scooped them up while the henchmen were looking at a Nuts magazine. Then escaped through a big window on a Harley as the building exploded. |

well, I have hidden the big female behind two small rubs up high, so that is hidden for a few weeks, and hidden the jungle in plain sight ;) I'm gonna see how long it takes to notice the difference between what was there (a stinking goddess) and the jungle female. Bet its there for ages.
If all fails I will just take her to schuh, works everytime :) |

| It's getting hard for me to keep buying them too, the missus is putting her foot down since we got all the boa babies, as if I had a choice! |
