I like Big Spiders (well big by British house standards), it also earns kudos points with scared housemates when you can remove them.............

Yep! I think spiders are lovely, and I will always assist them to get outside

When my fourteen year old was six she went on a school visit to the Butterfly place in Stratford-upon-Avon where she stepped forward and volunteered to hold a bloody great tarantula. She was the only person in her class that was prepared to do this but now I have to remove the tiniest little spider from her room, or the bathroom, or her sister's room, indeed from anywhere in the house and God forbid a normal sized house spider from appearing as she shrieks like a banshee.

Bizarre, really. Curious. When did it all change, IYHO? OASN, RETAIN your spiders for another month, folks. The late summer means a lot of flies are still pottering about later than usual, even without the Daddy Long Legs now tripping me over all the time... A good time of the year to keep a few 8-legged Housemaids around the place!

Bizarrely, on Friday night i went straight from work to a Mirmis gig in West Drayton with only the vaguest plan of how to get home. In the end i scammed a stay over at a fellow Sutton and Mirmis fans place but i earned my bed by removing 7 or 8 spiders from my friend Meg's bedroom (i'm deadly with a cup and paper!).

I thought that was a normal state of affairs with you Medi!

Oh.
Last night I had to put a spider out, because it was about 6cm long including legs (about the biggest I've seen in my flat!) and I didn't particularly like the thought of being woken up by this fellow scuttling over my face in the night!

Leather seats with tables and something resembling legroom too!
It was the former England team coach we use as a players coach for away games cos it's cheaper than a normal coach.
