Arachnophobia
They have come out in force, just because I said something a wee bit uncharitable about one of their friends. I didn’t hoover it (and I certainly didn’t approach with glass and card: Katy, you clearly have no idea what it is to be scared!). In fact I left it in the bath. We all had a shower last night come on girls it will be fun! I said brightly, not letting on the real reason. It’s still there (and my cleaner will have to deal in order to clean the bath tomorrow).
However. One more behind the bathroom door this morning. One halfway along the landing – possibly the same one. Now, one on the stairs. The same one? Who knows. I feel a bit sick and have to keep saying just leave it alone Maggie, spiders won’t hurt you. Huh.
I hate this season. Cameron is not allowed to go away (or even to work) in September ever again. I am starting to think I might have to be really brave and do the hoover thing – I can’t camp out downstairs all day, we are leaving for our holiday tonight! But we have a Dyson, what if I see it in there? I know I’m a wuss but I am getting teary just thinking about tackling it.
Shudder.

We have a dyson and I have to say that I have never been able to see the Sp***r in there. (Although I take Michael at his word that he even hoovered it up in the first place!) Put the longest attachment on, hold in your eight legged friends general direction, turn hoover on and look away!!!

Just remember how brave you were in Japan at not freaking with the s~~~~rs so that I did not see them. I was v impressed by that.

We had a r*t pop up through the drain in our bathroom (in India) the other day. Luckily it went back down again as we don’t have a hoover nozzle or a glass big enough :-))
