Well, he's Dutch, and is very partial to eel, and he said the nekkid snake looked like an eel, and it went from there. But I tell you what, just after we had killed snakey, we were both pretty shaken... until we decided to skin it for the leather, and then eat the meat. Then we felt on top of the food chain again. Since then we still keep a careful lookout for them, but we sorta look forward to the next one. Oh, and we have seen some again (big tiger snake recently) but away from the house, so we're sticking to the deal.

Major haggis. Game For A Laugh nostalgia.

I'm with you there - maybe it's a European thing. I'd definitely eat snake. Possibly not the Chinese way, where they skin it live, but if it was dead anyways...

Sandy, I'm going to Amsterdam (finally!) in March. Too early for the really good raw herring, but I'm hoping to have my fill of seafood. Not sure about seamen... but Dutch men are pretty hot!

For me, one of those led to the other and now I have my own Dutch treat, with his Dutch uncles, and Dutch ovens. Have fun in Amsterdam, Sundae!
