I lived in Cornwall for 12 years and the winters were mild but they were also very wet. The slugs that came out of the cornish hedges when it rained were massive. Biggest I've ever seen. 😲
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
At night our rear concrete driveway is awash with big greenish slugs. They must have the Wilderbeest gene, no wonder Hedgehogs have returned to our back garden to feast. 👍👍👍

Slugs, its weird that I can only remember black or brown as a kid, some small white on lettuce maybe.
Now there's all sort of colour down here too Ted, stripy, spotted and odd colours. Wonder what happened in slug world to get such change.
Cornish one's, when camping there in August, there are some whoppers like submarines out at night on relatively undisturbed common and headland. Some quite large Adder too .

I feel sorry for these homeless snails! When you ride over a slug on the drive they go POP, when you ride over a snail they go CRUNCH! On a wet night the last few yards of your journey can sound like riding through a plate of Ricicles, snap crackle and pop! :o
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Our garden is dominated by Slugs, I can pick up a snail & re-home it over the garden fence, s Slug urg revolting.
