    That must be terrible to be all alone in your snakeworld, Stefan

    I have a nice, juicy story ......

    It began a bit more that 8 years ago, and by that time I only had 1 female eastern. One day my parents went to a gardencentre (you know, a big shop where they sell all things for your garden and there was a big animal branch as well) So they recently opened up a new aquariumwall AND.....a small reptile corner as well !! My parents told the salesman that their doughter had a gartersnake and asked him about some advise (I don't know why, because I already had my garter for 2 years ) But the salesman start to talk and talk about his own experiences because he had a group of garters himself. He actualy got so enthusiastic, he told my parents that I should come to his place to see his group.
    When my folks got back they were very excited and told me they've spoken to a guy who also has garters and that I should visit him. So the same evening I called him and I was invited right away !!

    To make it all clear to you all, the name of the salesman is.....Gijs !!!
    And we've got married in april this year !!

    So did reptiles have affected my personal live ??
    I think it did......my parents brought me the man of my live

    Yeah, that's the main reason why I didn't get a snake until a few years ago.
