Cripes!..... nuthin a piece of 'four b two' wouldn't fix. Of course the arm might get a little bruised, but that's just collateral damage.... ;-)

I have to admit never to have developed a love affair with these little critters?.... in fact... 'skin crawl' comes to mind!

Good shot Nico but I'm happy for ...'smithi' to stay in your neck of tha woods.

Regards Melbob

Nico, most people have dogs for pets, or is it different in your side of the world? :)

Makes my skin crawl. (No, really! :-) ) It's a great photo and certainly evokes a sense of touch. Very nice. - CameraShy09
