Ok Tanks A Lot's story of the biting one is just nasty, I'd be totally freaked out that it was in my clothes for that long, yuck! That put me off my Shreddies (early evening breakfast interlude) I couldn't even finish the milk in the bowl - for no apparent reason, or the last inch of my coffee.
When you see something like that, or hear about it, you become convinced it's going to happen to you.
Regarding the bed moving episode, and let me just add:
- well, I totally agree there, I never ever get into bed at night without first looking to make sure there's nothing in it with me (flash backs from a James Bond book where he had a giant poisonous centipede in the bed - he killed it then threw up. I concour.)
Also, Daddy Long Legs = Crane Fly. Skinny spider = Harvest Man.
Oh yah, and the Black Widow, holy shoot. I hope you kept it in Hull, we don't want that sort of thing down here, it's not very British! ak!
Oh yeah and "Sea Spider"? OMG that's disgusting.
If you were in a boat accident, or a ship wreck, and you were surviving in deep water, treading water, worrying about sharks and storms and eels and stuff, wouldn't the very last thing, and I mean that most sincerely, the VERY LAST THING you'd want to see skating towards your poor little close-to-the-water-surface face is a bloody great spider.
That's just nasty and it should actually be illegal for a spider to swim. What a bad idea. As if it's not bad enough that snakes can get in the sea, jeeze how exactly can something with no limbs what-so-ever, swim? I mean, it's not natural.
ak! Ick! Yuck.
