It's a male Steatoda Nobilis (False Widow).
Don't panic, it won't hurt you.

Edit. It isn't, apparently:ffsparr:

Pint glass over the top slip a piece of thin cardboard underneath tip up and the throw the spider out the door/ window ( keep hold of the glass though ).
Or in my wife's case get a slipper ( normally mine ) and batter it to death then demand its remains are moved post haste

This was this evening's visitor just as Mrs Spongy was taking the 3year old to bed.

She walked in, turned the light on said something I can't repeat on here, turned around and said something also quite impolite to me with lots of other bad words about removing said Incy Wincy.


It was about 10mm diameter smaller than a pint glass so just grabbed it in my hand and threw it out the bathroom window.

Mrs Spongy also said it was time to close the ****ing windows as its starting to get chilly over night which is just a coincidence I'm sure.
