Still Life

Here's the story: 

Raj caught a gecko and brought it into the front room, so we embarked on a lifesaving gecko mission. Aforesaid gecko disappeared under the settee and could not be found.  However, there was this delicate little snail shell.

Don't ask me how it got there.  Doesn't everyone have snail shells in their front room under settees?

The point is that it did make a very good emergency blip in what was a busy weekend.
