Good looking snake ajm, you are cornering the market with exotic creatures
Had to smile about her getting into inacessible places. We had a Rock Python as a mascot on my first squadron. We toook him flying once and he did the same thing and found a spot and would not come out for ages. Lots of little spaces in a Canberra.
Last I heard of him was when he was promoted to Squadron Leader Fred Aldrovandi.

At least you can move furniture though, I would have thought the inside of a Canberra would be a nightmare place to lose a snake!
I heard of a case of a 12ft python that had crawled under the seats in a minibus and had looped itself around all the chairlegs. It took 2.5 hours to encourage it to let go and come out!

A few years ago me and my brother called in a petshop, on a whim, and 10 mins later came out with a tarantula, and a little plasctic house for it to live in.
Anyway we got back to the van and decided to have a closer look, I was sat in the driving seat, put my hand in the container, the spider twitched, I shat myself, and the little ****** jumped out, landed on the steering wheel, and then decided to go pot-holeing inside the steering coloum...it was a van with coloum shift so it found its way in through there.
2hrs to strip the dashboard and steering cloum, 1 hr to decide who was going to be the brave one and catch it, 2 hrs to replace the dash.
We did at first consider just leaving it in there, but it wasnt our regular van, and we kind of concluded that a tarantula crawling out of the dash at 70Mph on the M1 might be a tadge dangerours for the unwitting driver

LOL!
There was a case on a herp forum recently where someone lost a snake and it turned up in their neighbour's kitchen over a year later!
The amazing thing was that it had actually gained some weight, so what it had been eating nobody knows!
