Race said:interesting choice there......i suppose they are spidery kind of names!! But seriously dogs make much better companions!

Cheeky Monkey said:My eight year old daughter was terrified of spiders in the house and it got a bit tedious having to continually trap them and chuck them out until a few weeks back when she fearfully pointed one out on the ceiling and I said "Oh don't worry that's only Shirley"
She was literally cured overnight and now she always asks their names and a bit about their history etc. You can even get away with it with the bigger ones with lines like: "Oh that's only Shirley's old grandad" etc. and she's not bothered by them at all.

I appreciate that they aren't literally everywhere but the very thought of just seeing a Funnelweb for real makes me think I would probably just collapse of shock.
I feel like such a f***ing GIRL but I have had this irrational fear of spiders since I was a kid.
Oz has such a great climate and sounds like an incredible place to visit, there is so much I want to do there. But I'll be buggered if I want to check my sheets every night to make sure I don't die horribly, or check under the toilet seat every time I take a dump in case some heinous spider bastard wants to eat my arse.
Just the very thought of it makes my hair stand on end.
What the f*** do I do?

Bluejuice said:Just had a Messenger conversation with an Australian girl about their spiders and how to deal with them. Didn't do much for my fears so I came to the conclusion that New Zealand was the place to be instead.
So she tried to convince me that Kiwi birds were venomous.
We'd better win those ashes...
