i know...it's funny how these things work out isn't it. i'm thinking of putting down some symathetic looking refugia where there are supposed to be slowworms locally to see if i can attract some. we drove through llangollen sunday. we even had lunch at a pub about 400yds from the hill but i was banned from going for even a quick 5-minute look. tim |
