True or False?

[ER]

True or false:

While preparing to hike in Loch Lomand National Park in Scotland, we were cautioned by a guide there that the warm weather had brought out adders, which were ill-tempered in mating season, and were surprisingly common there.

I'll say false. It was Vipers.  

Ha! The man called them adders but the story is true, and it blew my mind to be cautioned about venomous snakes so far north. I mean who thinks "Scotland" and then thinks "venomous reptiles" in the same brainwave? I hiked in Florida once and multiple species of venomous snakes were there, including America's only native cobra, the coral snake (it's true, they are cobras, look it up!) yet no one said one word regarding being careful about them. We didn't see any snakes at all around the loch in any case.

And, RC., forward to 2:30.

Adders and Vipers are the same creature. It just depends on which way round you see them if it looks like an 'A' or a 'V' on their head.

Ever run into them?

No, never saw one even when I used to do a lot of hillwalking (well not in the wild. I've seen them as pets). To be honest they are pretty good at detecting us from quite a distance off and avoiding us.

I know of a road called West East Street.
