Rebecca! I think you should 'fess up to us and admit that Lenny is in fact your first ozzie friend! he has obviously (for good reasons may I say!) decided that you arent safe to be left on your own and in his own macho way is actually looking after you!
So lets here some appreciation for the Superhero known as Lenny!

I found a baby ghecko today in our bedroom that can only have been 1cm long, but with HUGE!!!!!! black button eyes. Will be keeping a close check on him/her as it looks like a brand new baby.

Lizard Update:
Lenny has now moved into the spare bedroom during the night. Saw him last night when I came in and went to open the window. He was up near the ceiling and looking at me with his big buggy black eyes. I think I may be becoming a lot braver as a short yelp and quick dance and shiver is a great improvement on initial hysteria.
Chris: a friend in the UK thought the way to get rid of Lenny was a rolled up newspaper. The ones in the shop were not rolled but I left the courier mail real estate section open at the page for house sharing, but I'm sorry to say he did not get the hint.
Sue: It would be easy to be insulted by your suggestion that Lenny is in fact my first Aussie friend. Easy and true in fact! As it is he may be my ONLY Aussie friend which may give you some insight into my social life since arriving here.
AllieKate: Never mind cute baby. Where's his parents and forty seven siblings? Not far away I'll warrant!
By the by - there is a rapidly growing hornets nest near my front door. I only sprayed for insects a few days ago. Perhaps the spider webs would have deterred them. Tonight there was a big cockroach (possibly grasshopper) who made his way to the middle of the living room and just sat there looking at me. Where's Lenny (the so called 'super hero') when you need him? I think they're just taunting me, seeing who'll crack first. There's actually no contest there as I cracked some time ago!
Good gracious! Do you think I might be a creepy creature magnet?

Lenny the Lizard is actually Gordon the Gecko! (Radical surgery)
This is not the first time I have experienced such a phenomena. I got a navman for my car and the chap giving the instructions was called Neville (Nev the Navman). Then the car went into the garage and when it came back Nev had had the snip and instructions were now given by Nigella. I have no idea how it happened, but she is actually quite snooty. When I went the wrong way with Nev he would ask me politely to perform a u-turn as soon as possible. Nigella's response is 'Hey Thicko! Wrong again. Are you learning impaired?' It can be quite off-putting I can tell you!
OMG !!!!!! I have nearly fallen off my chair laughing !!!!!
I got a Navman for Chrissie (long story, but I haven't been able to find my out out of the front gate yet), and our woman is very snotty and quite frightening. Within five minutes I wanted to turn her voice off and just get lost, but that would defeat the whole object.....
I haven't actually named her yet - perhaps Cruella de Car might suit. Hope she gets a sex change soon !!!
