Snake in printer queue

A couple got a shock when they turned on their printer - and found a snake inside.

Denis and Marie Matthews were having trouble printing from their home computer, so Denis decided to investigate, reports The Sun.

When he opened up the printer he found the metre-long reptile curled up comfortably and causing a paper jam.

Denis, of New South Wales, Australia, managed to shift the reluctant snake after attempts to coax it out through the back of the machine failed.

The snake is still on the loose and Denis believes it is still in his computer room as he frequently finds objects knocked from shelves.
