Spiders

Last night as I sat sewing in the lounge. I caught and evicted 5 rather
large spiders. By the time I caught the 5th I was rather itchy. It must be
time for them to seek warmth, but why my house lol

Frederick Williams...

Exactly so. _Please_ don't put spiders out in the cold. They are lovely
creatures and should be treated with the respect due to all living
things.

jackie...

ooh! I don't like spiders Jen, you are brave!!

ned...

Oh, you mustn't put them outside!
They will be House Spiders.
They might catch a chill out there.
:-)

Rabbit...

Please supply your home address and instead of putting them outside I will
carefully pack any spiders I find and snail mail them to you for safe
keeping :-)

Well I'm sure Jen could knit them some fine winter woolies. ;)

JoeH...

She can get some patterns from the web ;-)

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

Since the spider populatio outnumbers the human one many fold, you're lucky
to get away with only 5 I reckon. :)
They'll be back tomorrow. :(

Foxy at w*rk...

lol Yes I bet they will

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

But they'll have learned a thing or two by then, and you won't see them.
But believe me, they'll be there, with reinforcements. :(

Aries...

Five!! GULP!

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

All at once ?
What a big gob tha's got Froggie. :)

Foxy at w*rk...

lol Stop trying to frighten me :-p

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

You know what they'll all be chanting under their breath!
* Be very very afraid * :)

Foxy at w*rk...

I know Val. Too many eh :-(

Foxy at w*rk...

lol

Bram...

Cos you are near lots of open country. Posh little village in the middle of
nowhere. You live opposite a farm don't you..?

Mind you, saying that. I live in the middle of urban sprawl and I get loads
and my bathroom.
:-)

Rabbit...

It's all our houses we just don't always see them. Just think if you saw
five how many there were whom you didn't see and who got to a nice warm
hidey hole for the winter :-)

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

You should see the one who lives in my kitchen. I occasionally catch sight
of him late in the evening if I go in there to make a drink. I haven't got
a glass big enough to ctach him safely in. must be at least 5" leg tip to
leg tip. Don't know why but I call him George. .

Foxy at w*rk...

George is a nice name for a spider

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

Well he is a nice broad spindly spider. :)

Old Grizzly...

This one aint he is having dinner

Foxy at w*rk...

Well we all gota eat lol

Foxy at w*rk...

I don't mind them being there as long as I don't see them lol

linedancer...

OMG five ! Pat shudders.
We had a huge one in the bath the other day, I wonder why they go in the
bath, do they come up the plug hole, I have kept the plug in ever since,

Frogman...

Actually they just simply fall in and are unable to get out because of
the steep shiny sides, to come up the plug hole would mean they would
have to pass through the "U" bend which is full of water and of course
they can't swim.

linedancer...

Hubby said they fall in, but I didn't believe him, I was sure they came up
the plug hole , thinking incy wincy spider coming up the spout ;-)

Foxy at w*rk...

lol

Foxy at w*rk...

I used to have a doggie that was partial to a spider or two :-)

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

We had a cat: Paddy many years ago, who used to trap flies cliimbing the
window pane in a cage made from his extended claws. He would then eat them
and very genteely spit out the wings from the side of his mouth. LOL

just in case .

Foxy at w*rk...

It's just that they can't get out so that's why you see them, they can't run
away when they feel you coming. Mind you I had a friend who never cleaned
her bath and spiders could always climb up the grime lol
