I know Wales has a reputation for being a wet country but the past couple of weeks have been much wetter than any I’ve known in my four years here. Still, it’s good weather for slugs, which is why this large and colourful beastie was to be found sliding its way across my path today. It was about 3 inches long and I presume, despite its colour – they vary a lot, that it’s a Black slug (Arion ater agg.), a species that can only be positively identified by examination of its genitals. I’m not going there!
291/365 Good weather for slugs

I dislike them so much, they make my path slippery and when I get back from my partner’s house in the evenings; I have to take it very carefully and often slip on a snail that I missed.

They certainly stir mixed feelings in people. Sorry to hear about your slipping …
