jaysus, the ones i get could feed a family of four.
i had a workman pulling up a floorboard the other day, he quickly put it back after spotting a spider which was "best left undisturbed" as it was likely "as old as the house" which was built in the 1860's.
i've had one so big, that i got a hoover to it and it's legs were glued to the ceiling against the force of suction...took a wee few seconds for it to loosen it's hold.
but whatever the size of them...you will always be bigger and scarier!
you wuss!  |

dont mind spiders as they are easy enough to move outside, but what i do find a problem with is days like today where i have a little snoozy on the lounger in the garden and am woken by a 3 inch long hornet landing on my inner thigh, which from the sound i had first mistaken for a harley davidson or a CH-47 Chinook, needless to say for a couple of seconds i reverted back to being a 5 year old girl and went from static to almost summersaulting onto my arse and swinging wildly at it with a bbq tool.... it may have won this battle but the war rages on....  |

I quite like the occasional spider around the place… they help keep the other nasties at bay, such as earwigs .... and I really HATE earwigs!
However, this year there seems to be fecking hundreds of little jumpy spiders in the garden…. so I have to admit to taking a chef’s touch to a few hatching nests.

I quite like em- the cats don't, and unfortunately, that means the dogs don't either- anyhting that annoys the kitties sets the rottie off- she'll eat ANYTHING! |
