Ha - cool! Good on your Auntie and hope I'm still going strong at her age!
At 60 this year, I'm an infant by comparison but it's obvious us senior citizens think snakes are fab! |

Hey Bats, long time since we chatted on a thread! :) I missed ya!!
I still cannot believe that when I mentioned that Kit wanted a snake, she jumped in handing the money to me to get one. She had Gimli on her as well today, but time was short so no pics. As for you, you'll be collecting snakes for years and years..it sure keeps you young at heart and that is the key. |

Cheers Austin, I phoned her and shared your comment..she was thrilled
Thanks Scotty, it certainly proves no age limit..the strange part is that she had never even touched a snake before, let alone have one on her lap |

*chuckles* I was on a lord of the rings debate team..and yup i'll debate with you.. but first we have to chose which side. I'll say that no, they didn't land on the moon!
I'm going out now for a few hours, so it gives you time to prepare your opening argument And you need a new thread hehe |

Great pic. My mother's 84 and looks ages older than your aunt. Also, if she even knew there was a snake in the house, (never mind on her lap) she'd have a heart attack!!!!!! |

I don't know how she does it either, she had a major car crash 15yrs ago, totalled her Hillman Imp. Had two operations to remove cataracts 3yrs back on both eyes. She helped Katana with school stuff on World War 1, her memory is great :)
Only thing she won't do is try a computer, but neither will my mum lol |
