Insy winsy spider
Insy winsy spider is not climbing up the drainpipe. No, he is currently undertaking an army invasion on my house. It must be the September weather - cold and damp - making the HUGE spiders decide to come inside and warm themselves by my Freeview box. I don't know why, but these spiders seem to love lurking around the Freeview box. BBC Four is a fantastic cultural channel, perhaps it attracts the beasties... Anyway, I am sick chasing them with my baseball boots around the house. Last night Lee could not believe how much my heart was racing - not at or with Lee - but on the assassination of the said spider. Yes children, an animal was harmed in the writing of this blog. Ever watched the film Leon? I am the hitman of the spider world. Splat.
I decided not to place a scary picture of a large hairy spider, so instead here's a romper suit I embroidered for my lovely niece Sophie. Afterall, poodles may bite, but spiders always scuttle.

we too have the huge scary spiders in situ at the moment - the size of a tractor wheel!
what has happened with these plate-sized beasts in Glasgow.
Just last night the boy placed a glass over one and called the cat for a wee evening snack ... stupid cat dropped spider out of mouth and lost interest.
Stand on chair staring wide-eyed all over bedroom and refuse to turn off lights & go to bed lest it crawl into my mouth ...
humpf!
