Yep, adder and grass snake from memory. Adders are venomous but nothing worse than a bee sting unless you are allergic

Slowworms are sometimes called snakes but are actually lizards with no legs

How about lizard species? I'll trade some of our native snakes (northeast US) for some of your lizards if you guys have any hahaha. The only native species to my state CT is the five lined skink, and I've never actually seen one.
