User's notes

Back flyscreen door was held open by clip on hydraulic arm. My wife went to close the door and at the last second noticed the snake curled up over the hydraulic arm and top of door. Snake was safely relocated to bottom of the block. Approx. 550mm long.

Should we start calling you Notechis now? I've always considered you more of a tiger than a goanna.

This is a very presumptuous snake that needs to revisit his or her manners.
