Passssssenger

Those of you who read/followed the Paris blog will be familiar with Norman, he ended up riding either on my bike or when he wanted to really see the world, attached to the top of my helmet (ahem). Well, Norman's owner was in the office the other day and when he overheard that I was once again taking to the road he suggested I take Bernard.

Now don't get me wrong, I like animals and indeed Norman had some sort of appeal, I would get many smiles, waves and toots from passing car drivers at the site of a fully grown black and white cat perched on my head as I struggled up a hill. But a snake?

Well, here is Bernard the Snake and I'm not so sure. Either about my sanity or his staying power, and he doesn't say a word, he just hisses all the time. Psst, psst.

May be I should put it to the vote? should Bernard come with us to Liverpool?
