'I have been stung twice by a bee in my life - and that was enough'
A holidaymaker found this fearsome SCORPION inside his suitcase after returning home from a trip to Cuba.
"I don't think he's deadly," said David, who landed at Manchester Airport on Friday morning after a two-week holiday just outside Havana with his wife, Amanda, 48. "I have been looking them up online and, thankfully, the word 'fatal' hasn't yet cropped up, although I have seen the words 'very poisonous'.
"I opened up the second suitcase with the same pair of litter picker grabbers I managed to catch the scorpion with but thankfully, there was nothing inside that one. "Apparently, huge storms bring scorpions out because they also bring the insects out, and there was a big storm when we were there," he said.
