Unregistered	Just been reading camp site rules.... "There are adders present in the woods, please take appropriate cautions". ADDERS?? Are adders dangerous? :o :blink: :unsure: And what appropriate precautions are those? :unsure: Signed, The Girl With A Fear Of Snakes Of Any Variety. :unsure: :( P.S. Avoiding the woods is not an option... one of my duties on camp is keeping the fire going so I got to get wood some how :unsure:
