Spiders
« on: March 06, 2009, 08:12:36 AM »
I have always had a massive dislike for spiders and i had a friend who told me that they aren't so bad. He had one in his place for ages and so i thought i would try that too. But it was in the garage... (there is a connecting door to the house ) so this was quite a challenge because this spider was big, huge, wore boots and watched me like a hawk. I have a picture , somewhere but as yet i haven't worked out how to load here on Diasfora. and need to find it. But i had the spider as a distant friend for about a good year. Not sure what happened to him or when he exactly went, but i still dislike them !!!!!!!! have a look at this below. I have an interactive screen at work and it takes a lot of courage for me to use my finger for the job.... :)

I'm not a big fan of spiders, but I'm not afraid.  I do get a bit jumpy if something all of a sudden crawls across my foot though.

As for spiders and all insects, I suppose they all have there lives to live and they are ok nearby or far away, preferably far away though if they are big and hairy.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.
