Goat Man, Mouse man, Cat Man and now….Snake Man!
This week I opened up a square steel cover to gain access into a pool pump room that is underground.
Having finished I go to close the entrance cover and notice a snake between the cover surround and the patio.
Didn’t notice it when I went down the ladder though!!
It was between 1-2 feet in length and did not want to be extracted and had been partly trapped by the edge of the cover where the hinges were.
So I had to find a stick narrow enough to get into the area, prop the steel cover open and have a pool net ready to get the snake into.
Mr Snake was not happy!
After a few minutes I manage to get him out and encouraged him into the net. He was then let go down the bottom of the garden.
I recounted the story to a friend – he said the small snakes are the dangerous ones!! Ignorance can be helpful sometimes!

Toledo
I recently spent some time site seeing in the town of Toledo in
Castile-La Mancha, Spain. Situated to the south of Madrid, the
walled city is set on a hill above a river, which gives spectacular views
over the surrounding countryside.

Always learning
Back safe and warm in Synchro Towers after a trip up to my old hometown of Worcester for a four day training course. Over in the support team we don't have the life on the road of our Global Training and Implementation Team, and leaving the family at home to head out can be tough, but it's vital to keep up to date with the current standards and features.
