Gliding through his backyard the serpent made its way to the patio and then up the walls of his house.

“I am glad it was me hanging out the washing because the wife would probably never do it again if it was her,” Robbie described his encounter.

Speaking to myGC Robbie said the python has been living in his shed but the warmer weather has brought him out.

Stills have been shared on the site Reddit where people are urging others to make sure second floor windows are shut to prevent unwanted visitors slithering in.
