Last night I was hanging laundry in our bedroom and after lifting DPs trousers to hang a huge fat swollen spider fell out of his trouser leg. It was dead, obviously had burrowed itself into dps trouser leg —no matter how many times I tell him not to leave his clothes on the bathroom floor—. I can’t get it’s huge swollen body out of my mind, it was such a strange colour Sad

SO please tell me how you usually deal with spiders in the home? I usually trap them into a glass and wait for DP to get home. I feel absolutely awful about said spider, do you think it suffered?

Fully prepared to be told iabu and that I need to get a life. Grin

I name them and talk to them. Very difficult to be afraid of a Bernard or a Gerald or a Boris.

There's one Boris I am quite afraid of (especially if he wins the Tory leadership contest and end up as PM) Even as a total arachnophobe, I'd take the spider any day
