It's.... a python in the toilet bowl!

"A tourist got the shock of her life when she discovered a two-and-a-half
metre python in the toilet of her Dutch hotel room.

Once she had recovered from the fright, she did what anyone would do and
rang reception. The hotel in the southern Dutch town of Maastricht sent
several members of staff up to the room to investigate.

They concluded that the snake must have found its way into the room through
the drainpipes and began searching the adjoining hotel rooms.

In the room directly below they found the source of the invasion: a
substantial menagerie of exotic animals. There were over 30 uninvited guests
in the room including snakes, lizards, poison dart frogs, fire salamanders,
Madagascar boas, bird spiders and a baby crocodile.

Most of the specimens were still in their boxes and crates, but two gekkos
were wandering across the walls. The python had clearly managed to escape
from its crate too.

The python was captured and all the animals removed from the hotel room.
Four Italians, three men and a woman, who were renting the room were
arrested by police. They were also found to be in possession of narcotics
and a fire-arm.

Under wildlife protection laws, the possession of fire salamanders is
illegal. Moreover, the papers for the boas were missing and 16 other animals
were judged illegal because their origins could not be determined..."

Pythons don't bite - they hug you to death. However, your "story" (with
different embellishments) first appeared many years ago in an American
newspaper, during the journalistic "silly season". (It wasn't true
then, so I suspect "Snopes" gives it equal marks for veracity, now.)

Lookie who answers morrow : divathing, martin...all the best ones around

Ours bite. They can be rather seve not poisonous but
septic; they don't clean their teeth:-)

Actually you will find many reports of python bites around
the world if you search on the subject.
