Of all the most ridiculous things that has happened to me , this weekend gone this has to be the winner.
I went back to Liverpool to sort out my student things and thought i should tidy my room! I lifted up my student jacket...and underneath it was a SNAKE!!! yes a yellow and orange snake to be exact! I never been so afraid in my whole entire life! I ran out of my bedroom, tripping over myself, screaming like it was about to attack me! (i would leave a picture so you have an idea but i don't want too, i can't bring myself to google snake). anyways i called my friend Farah to come up to liverpool and check if i wasn't imagining things, after all wtf was a snake doing in Liverpool student accomodation anyway...in rainy england.
Farah: a snake in your room...chaz are you imagining things?
ME: Please just come!
Farah: You do have a vivid imagination sometimes, but ok if i must.
An hour of an half later Farah arrives and we go back to my self, as soon as i stepped back into my student accomodation my legs just turned to strawberry jelly. Farah got a broom stick and went into my room and i stayed outside...it was quiet...then ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Farah ran into the kitchen screaming IT'S A SNAKE...YOU'VE GOT A SNAKE IN YOUR ROOM! Farah went outside to roll a ciggy as she reckons she can't cope, i moaned that it is in my room! I sort of giggled as she was incapable of rolling a ciggy at this point as she was shaking.
We topped up our phones and called pest control but they were all crap
Pest control: In 15 years i never dealt with a snake
Pest control 2: Sorry call the zoo
Pest control 3: Sorry we deal with rats and stuff like that
Insurance company: Do you realise you've just called an insurance company
RSPCA: if you have problems with a fox, press 1, if you have a problem with a hedgehog press 2, if a problem with a snake press 3....[pressed 3] a snake is a protected species which means we can't kill it, the best thing to do is leave it and it will go away...
SLAM!!!
i phoned my landlord but he said...oh i'm out of the area. So we rang up RSPCA main national number and the lady told us that the people might come at 11pm at night but we had to phone the police...THE POLICE??? we did
POLICE: a snake...well i never had a call like this before
anyways the police called some local animal rescue man, he usually rescues animals from car accidents and stuff like that. He went in my room and searched for an hour and a half. He said the snake could have gone, but it could have hidden in a dark space, to warm up or something. SO i have to go back to liverpool not knowing if the snake is still there or not...i feel sorry for the new students.
anyway the snake was an american corn, small one, a starter snake for people who wants to look after snakes for the first time, but obviously the owner was crap and keeping it as it has escaped into my room...
anyways we left and went out and got drunk
However this turned out to be cool as i've got something interesting to talk about now! LOL
