Day of the Spiders?

Charlotte · 11-08-2007, 23:31

Have the UK's population of spiders come to visit me, or is this happening to others too

My house is overrun with spiders today ... and I think it's spider mating season, as most of them are babies

Its when they crawl in your ear at night and multiply, then you should worry

Oh don't say that

What about that big one behind you

There is always a silver lining if you look hard enough.

I bet you don't have many/any flies.

Actually I'm not afraid of spiders

It's just that I've seen so many today, I was beginning to wonder if it was a national thing or only me ... seems like it's only me

Thankfully you're right, Graham

Spiders I don't normally mind, but flies ...

Its a well known fact that just about every human will swallow a spider while a sleep at night at least once in their life, just something to think about before you go to sleep tonight

Well hope Charlotte sleeps with her mouth shut......although I can't imagine that somehow

***Steve*** · 12-08-2007, 08:19

I dunno, I bet the neighbours have earplugs

P-E · 12-08-2007, 08:21

Yes extra thick ones too

.....wait till she wakes up and comes in here now

Oh, is that what they are ... I thought it odd that all my neighbours wear hearing aids
