lizards!

aussie_kel has one of these in her back garden right now.

She's too scared to take a photo for me because it's a 'big lizard' and is 'slimy and scary'.

So. Lizards.

Lizards are far from slimy. Like snakes, their skin is dry and warm to the touch.

That's what i told her! They're all warm and soft.

Our next pets are likely to be lizards - they are Col's favourite, and he has had them in the past.

I had 2 leopard geckos, and while both cute - and warm - and dry, the sound of the specially bred "soundless" crickets for them to eat drove me barmy...

Ok, in my defence, I know lizards aren't actually slimy. There was a stage in my life when I liked lizards and found them fascinating. When I was little I used to play with all kinds of things I either fear or find utterly repulsive now. I don't know when fascination gave way to quaking fear, but it happened. Me saying slimy and gross was my way of saying to Emmie, please don't make me go near the lizard that turned around and hissed at me when I accidently approached it 5 minutes earlier.
