COMPETITION WINNER

I shouldn't have worried. It took less than an hour from me posting a worried note that I couldn't think of a stupid pun about Richard Holland's lunchtime posting about an encounter with giant snakes in 19th Century Wales, when reader Steve Puckett came to my rescue..

There once was a carter from Wrexham
When giant snakes started to vex'im.
He need not worry
If he would just scurry
And procure a witch to hex'em.



We need more stuff like this in contemporary cryptozoology...
