I bought a new snake on Saturday   It’s a hognose snake and it’s the only venomous snake that you’re allowed to buy in the UK, because at worst it can give a person a rash.  Anyway, I went to the pet shop to buy a weeks supply of crickets for my geckos and when I saw this baby Hognose my heart just went to mush, so I bought it after playing with it for about 30 minutes.  I have named him John Gotti after my favourite family member.  When I got him home I realised that I had very little space left in my bedroom after installing his vivarium, so his vivarium is my new bedside table and the fridge which was there, has been relegated to the back of the room, because I had to rearrange everything to make it all fit.

Saturday night was ok.  I went to Wimbledon and got very drunk as per usual, but my evening was ruined when we went to a nightclub and the male to female ratio was about 10:1     So of course I didn’t stand a chance of even speaking to a girl, because all the sleazy guys go in for the kill straight away and then hang around them like flies, which isn’t my style.  So it looks like I’m going to be single this Chrimbo, which sucks, because Christmas is the nicest time of year to share with the one you love and get drunk.  I’m going to take some more digital pictures of myself and stick them up here, in what will probably be the most humiliating attempt to get a date in the history of mankind.  In an even more unashamed attempt, (except this time to make some money, because I’m going to be unemployed soon) I shall be selling colour photos of my naked body for £10, (mail order only).

Here's a pic of my new snake, John Gotti:
