🤣 Further up the peninsula is Goonhilly, a big radio communications place (when the Beatles premiered All You Need Is Love worldwide, the signals went through Goonhilly). It has acres and acres of grounds, and I believe lots of reptiles live there undisturbed. But that’s as close as we get! But that makes me think – I wonder why it has that name? I shall have to go looking.
I feel like I am living in Lizard Town as they are everywhere. Once I opened up the mailbox and one crawled out and I giant one lives under my gas grill.
I guess that even though it is our southernmost point, it must be the same latitude as somewhere in Canada. So I guess we are just too cold. I saw them in France though, tiny things, maybe a couple inches. They were a novelty but I can imagine if they’re everywhere they must be a bit of a pest. Man, they were quick.
(from Cornish an Lysardh, meaning ‘the high court’) I know they have a funny language there, just like they do in Brittany in France, I guess it is all kind-of gaeliccy, but certainly Greek to me 🤣🤣🤣
Are there a lot of lizards there?
