Spiders.

Dust contains a chemical which has the same effect on them as steroids do on mammals - It will probably burst out shortly, like an eight-legged version of the Incredible Hulk.
OMG! I'm gonna throw the thing over the hedge & onto the common. :emo:

That accounts for the monster that ran across the Livingroom wall this morning then ....

As I was getting into bed last night I came face to face with a rather large wild arachnid. It was in some distress as it had it's back legs caught in the web of one of those bloody cellar spiders (infested I tell you!) and said cellar spider had a napkin on and was moving in for it's dinner. Being the lovely person I am I managed to ask the OH, in between squeaks of distress, to rescue and evict dinner and also remove the now irate and disappointed would be diner. It took a while to get to sleep last night.

I thought you didn't mind spiders @Gadget?

I'm not overly impressed with last nights antics either.....took the smallest child up to bed & duely spent 10 minutes faffing about getting her into bed.....just turned round to switch her lamp on only to be deafened by her screaming 'SPIDER, SPIDER'!
'WHERE'? I bellow .....'ITS ON YOUR BACK & ITS MASSIVE'! she screams.......Que panic as the child shuts herself in her room screaming 'Daddy!' leaving me to strip off on the landing at the same time as screaming for the husband.....he charges upstairs wondering why we are all screaming.... I shut myself in the bathroom leaving him with my clothes & the monster spider that the eventually kills with a shoe after claiming 'Omg! Look at the size of it, its massive'!
I went to look after it was killed & it truly was HUGE. How long had I been walking about with it sat on me???? I still haven't recovered!

Well I don't mind spiders but i'm not overly keen on large wild ones in my bedroom and I too would almost expire if one was on me.

Another massive one on the bedroom ceiling last night. Where are these monsters coming from?


I got up in the night to go to the loo and there was a giant 8 legged freak in the bath, I used oh' s toothbrush holder to capture it and I threw it out the window, there was no way I was risking letting that thing get anywhere near the bedroom!

I swear I live in the 'Spider House of Horrors' - Friday night I found a massive one pretending to be dead on the bedroom blind (it WASN'T dead) & then half an hour later the smallest cat brought me one that was almost as big as her head....& she tried to throw it at me!!

don't mention the blinds
Hopefully the spiders will devour the plague of daddy-long-legs/crane flys/leatherjackets that are soon to be amongst us, dunna rely on the ants to save us......

Now those things disturb me. They are like flying spiders and they are horribly put together. You swipe at them and a leg falls off. They have a nasty habit of hanging by one leg from the ceiling too. Eurgh.

I was about to come on earlier and gloat that I hadn't seen a single spider this year!

I was going to impart wisdom of keeping a 'sealed unit'.

But then - just when I was feeling safe and secure - a spider BEAST attacked me! I nearly died!

The brave and wondrous other half dismantled half the kitchen to save me!

It has begun....
