Howdy guys.. just got back from a friends 21st party, and when i came around the corner near one of the colleges late night doors i saw a dark shape against the concrete support, right next to the door. I quickly stopped, and right before it dissapeared i realised it was a snake, forming a S shape, sticking out of a hole in the ground. I have one of those little keyring mag lites, so shone that down there, and saw a little spotted python, before it vanished under the concrete, in the little hole. I then went for a walk around the uni, came back, and i could see his head again, but again, he quickly vanished.
my question.. should i wait up and go down again in about an hour to see if he's moved a bit, so i can move him away from teh college? he is literally right near the door, and could quite easily slide under without even noticing, and im also concerned that some of the girls might go to use that door and freak if they see a snake. So, should I bother trying to move him away? if so, is there any way for me to bribe him out, or do i just wait?
only reason i ask is cause i found a spotted python in the college once before, and caught it and took it back to a bushy area.. and people were freaking out THEN, though they knew i was there with the snake... this time, theyd probably freak out more...

Oh, I was supposed to be working 6 hours ago. I didnt think i'd be at that party very long (Im a really quiet person, study more than i socialise) but this python is distracting me now. though, i am currently writing up my lab report for a prac I did on skeletal muscle  so i am working!
I shall still go down at about 3 (10mins) and see if i can find him (hopefully he's come out.. somehow doubtful though)

yeah, most likely im just hoping he dosnt find himself inside the college, seeing as he's so close! I certainly wont be telling many people about him, theyd freak out too much! kinda cool though, knowing that he lives down there!
worlds crappiest photo of him, took it just then
