After coming home from dinner with some friends we turned the lights on in our hut and heard a very loud scuttle across the walls. I thought at first it was a bat or a bird but it turns out that this was a Tokey Gecko. Normally in the UK we would find daddy long legs or the house spider, so we did not know what we were dealing with. So both of us decided to phone our Australian friend Robert (who lives a few huts down so we should have shouted) to come to our rescue.
Luckily we found out that the Tokey Gecko's are not dangerous and they are only active at night. Amusingly he forgot to tell us about these creatures. However they do make a great noise which is a there loud mating call during the night. At first we did hear them and only thought this was a bird.....outside our hut, we were too jet lagged to investigate. Unfortunately Olly is a little sleep deprived and he is determined to get them out and they can get in through the vents in the kitchen. Just for the record we did not turn the oven on and we just left them to it. So far no mating call tonight.
