Was quite happily surfing the 'net on my laptop in bed until just now when I spotted a ****ing HUGE spider (by UK standards at least) come crawling across my duvet giving me the fright of my life! I'm not normally an arachnophobe but MY GOD that thing was HUGE! At least as big as the palm of my (not insignificantly sized) hands with a fairly chunky body on it.

Needless to say I did the decent thing - put my hand in one of those plastic document wallets, grabbed it and chucked it out of the window (I'm a little superstitious that it's unlucky to kill a spider, and generally they do good stuff like get rid of flies etc).

Anyone had anything similar recently?
 
Yes we get spiders all the time.

This is my weapon of choice

Wow you're a real lumerjack.

Just kidding I would have done the same. In fact I would have prolly left a little brown passenger in my bed after an experience like that.
 
Apparantly you're supposed to dump spiders about 20 metres away from your house otherwise they'll find their way back in.

It'll be back.
