Please guys, if you haven't been go, NOW! I have just been and had the best day of my entire life! The guys out there are fantastic and truly need as much support as possible, they deserve it!! They do everything they can to gain support for these beautiful snakes, I couldn't tell you all enough how great it was there. I learnt so much and had a brilliant time doing it, besides getting special treatment I know everyone else there today still loved it. You really should go, I'll post my pictures soon just in the process of uploading etc, but this is something that should not be missed, no matter how far away you are. Please do go.
Its based in Eastwood in the Nottingham area.

I must warn you, they only do weekends and bank holiday Mondays, and we were there from 12 until nearly 4. It was amazing though, Luke is a fabulous guy! You will love it :)

I was very lucky, and impressed after I saw the jealousy on everyone elses face, hehe. They are by far the most beautiful snakes I have ever seen (sorry Lacey), and if they weren't so dangerous I wouldn't think twice about having one. How close I go was close enough for me, I have never been so terrified, but I loved every second! :D
