Same here! A huge black one crawled out of hood the other day when I took my coat off and hung it on the back of the chair, I screamed so loud it made Tank drop a shopping bag full of food and he had a right go at me.....until he saw the size of the maneating beast! I had walked round the shops with that THING on me :nono:

My old man thought it was funny to throw them at me until I went mental and called him a twattwattwattwat. He doesn't throw them at me anymore.

I have no problem with rats, snakes, etc but Spiders make me scream like a little bitch. Totally irrational.

I can handle most things in life Les but nothing has me up on a chair faster than the sight of an 8 legged monster. My shed is full of them and I never go near the place unless i'm armed with a couple of Bug Guns.

Only cos I burst his ear drums! He was more worried about whether or not he'd squashed his dinner rather than me being potentially attacked by tarantula! :rolleyes:

A little tip though Race if your shooting spiders above you take an umbrella because they frighten the hell out of you when they drop on your head. 0 - 60 mph in about 1.5 seconds is the average speed of a bulldog attached to a spider.

Which just proves that they are harmless. Spiders are more likely to run away from humans than bite them.

Spiders live outside and I live inside, if a spider comes in the house, I kill it, if its oustide I leave it alone and walk swiftly away. I'm not petrified of them but I know some of the ones I grew up with could kill me, so I treat all of them with respect and swift death if they come inside. :lol:

If you believe in an "eye for an eye" philosophy, you would run out of eyes long before the spider...

Now that'd be stupid of me to believe in that with spiders! :lol:

I woke up that other day to find a dead spider in my glass of water beside my bed.

Just glad I didn't finish it off during the night !!!

My Dad always said there was never anything to be scared of.

they are only little and they don't bite....





he then proceeded to pick it up to take it outside but dropped the thing after it had bit him.

Last laugh a Dad :bowdown:

I once read that the average person swallowed 8 spiders in their lifetime ( when they were asleep unintentionally of course )
and told my neice about that fact who was terrified of them.

She then decided to sleep with a stocking over her face to keep them out. Her husband told me that normally stockings did the business for him but he admitted to me that he was struggling a little with the whole thing.
