Rock python is used here in the UK as much as ball python.

Your uncle breeds snakes as a hobby? That's fucking awesome, mate. What sort has he got over where he lives? I once had a corn snake, milk snake and kingsnake before I got my ball python. I've had loads of snakes and I've been thinking of getting a Chile Rose tarantula soon once I get back to the UK.

Vars might like meeting my snake and would probably like my spider too if I get one. Does Ziggy like snakes? He seems an open sort of bloke.
