I just walked into the fattest spider...

[i-need-a-martini]

...I walked into a huge web and as I was untangling myself I could feel some heavy vibrations.

Looked up and a HUGE spider was scrambling up and away inches from my head.

And not just one of those long legged big ones. But one of those ones with the ENORMOUS fat hairy abdomens.

I don't mind spiders but they can really scare you when you "bump" inot them unexpectedly !

[i-need-a-martini]

I'm not proud of it but fat hairy spider is now kaput.

And I swear I felt the thud when he fell on the path.

I don't like spiders one bit. If they are black, or have a white tail or a red back, I squish them. If a huntsman I put a jar over it, and then tip it over the neighbour's fence. 🙂 Out of sight out of mind.

The only spiders that I fear are White Tails. When I lived in Central Australia it was Redbacks I feared. Lucky we don't have Funnelweb spiders around here.

What I fear even more than certain spiders is the European Wasp. My skin crawls when I hear one buzzing near me. I have never been stung by a wasp, but the way my body reacts to the sound, I would not like to find out what they could do to me.

I like Daddy Long Legs spiders, they eat the White Tails.

Spiders are great, except the 3 already mentioned. Their webs are beautiful and practical, what about the net caster, how brilliant are they. Shouldn't kill them, it's bad luck, or so my Pop reckoned. It must be the weather here at the moment, they are everywhere. When I walked into one of the avairys  the other morning, I saw something out of the corner of my eye flying into my face , thought it was a baby for a split second, then maybe a moth. It landed on my head, I brushed it off and felt something crawling up my leg - it was a huge Huntsman.

Martini you know the spider's family are coming to get you tonight, when it is dark, for killing their mummy 🙂

[j*oono]

Far out Boris!  Nothing would ever get me into that aviary again.

I found a big black one in the guinea pig cages yesterday when I was cleaning them out.

I tell you he did not stand a chance..............I flung him across the paving.....and then went over and stomped all over him.......swept him up.............and put him in the wheelie bin.

Flashie........1..............spider........nil.
