Spiders
Love them or hate them, we live with them, and have to. This is an interesting little video on the BBC site and if you want to be really distasteful, go to 1:30......

Not bothered about spiders but when we moved here I went up into the floored loft to tidy up a bit before putting stuff up there. Saw a couple that were so large I'd swear they growled at me!

I'm petrified of the gets. Like George who used to be in the LCOZ, kill em every time , no mercy. Wasps and bees I can cope with , but eight legged monsters and moths no.

Yes we do... I put my jacket on and there must have been one hiding in the sleeve, for it bit my arm. My arm swelled up as a result of the bite and I ended up having to see an emergency doctor.
