Latest set. This spider was waiting for me in the sink this morning. The spider detector (the mrs screaming) went off at 6.30am. I don't even need to look for the creepies these days, they come to me. :D

Thanks oldCarlos. I read in the paper about a lady who was bitten by a house spider and nearly died. :shock:

Might avoid these little buggers in future.

They're all cracking shots (spiders not my favourite pet!), but that last one of the snails head, dare I say it :roll: stands out.

OldCarlos - Yeah in wednesdays paper. Maybe you shouldn't read it.... involved skin grafts etc. Nasty. I PM'd you too.

Arthur Dent - Thanks for the feedback. At least with the snail if you take your eye off him he doesn't disappear out of sight. :)
