Leave spiders alone. They do a very good job of killing beasties that get in to the house. The web is a poor price to pay for that. Dusty/old webs get cleared but only them

Hey, some changes in me i have noticed since being bitten by a spider this morning...
1.. I can scale high buildings.
2.. I can swing from high buildings.
3.. I have 6 more legs.
4.. I have a taste for flys and stuff.
6.. I can see better due to growing six extra eyes.
7.. Typing has become much faster.

Just be thankful,
We used to have to watch out for these b*stards creeping into our tents at night...

Bit of fred drift, late 70s, we used to fly UTA to Luanda from Paris. The crack was go the night before, UTA would pick up the tab for the hotel and then we could have jolly in the Place de Pigalle. Dunno whats its like now but in those days there was the Crazy Horse Saloon, loads of "interesting" shops and all the bars were fulll of "working" girls. There were loads of "Philipino" types with big wangers, fully exposed, hanging around the "shops" obviously on the game.I think it was a misprint. He actually meant "I've been bitten by a ladyboy".
One of the Geordie lads used to like to get his rocks off before his month in Angola and so would avail himself of a working girl.
Anyway the next day in the bar at Charles de Gaulle he was bragging about his latest "conquest" (at mille francs he was welcome to it!) a Philipino.
The thing he couldnt understand was the fact that the "gal" only wanted to do titty feeling and BJs.
Imagine his face when we explained that what he had paid "mille francs" was in fact a "ladyboy!!

SWMBO clings firmly to the conviction that earwigs can give you a nasty pince. Talk about shriek, poor defenceless little buggers must be deaf after.

scary insects seem to be brought down to size, if you know their Latin nomenklatur.
Earwig is forficula auricula, with the last word meaning.... ear-hole

'Term of endearment', old fruit. Kermit is one of my Role Models.
A South African Army survival instructor once confided, in deep bush and at night, that animals can smell human fear. Most spiders I've encountered could certainly smell mine....

When studying in Cardiff my GF at that time was a trainee environmental health officer. They regularly had to Hairy Spider Inspections on the Geest Banana boats arriving at Barry docks.

According to SWMBO it is the ones that are yellowish that bite. There has been a real plague of them at Lorient this year. Apparently they are an Asian variety.
