OK, not in the garden or at the allotment, more out the back of Sainsbury's,
but hey. I took this pic this afternoon.

It made my day to see it.

Wow!

That reminds me of the first time I saw one - at play time in infant
school. We used to play in a disused quarry on the hill opposite the
school, and one day we came across a basking adder. The teacher, when
called, merely told us to leave it in peace and keep away from it, and
playtime continued :-)
