A python, that's normally found in Africa, has been discovered sliding around a garden in Dublin.
Douglas Keatinge took to twitter to ask for advice on how to deal with the reptile that had wrapped itself around a barrel in Dun Laoghaire.
Some questioned whether it was real while others suggested ringing St Patrick.
It turned out to be a harmless pet ball python belonging to a next door neighbour, that had been missing for a month.
