So here I am sat minding my own
business when I hear Ferretfingers screaming into the kitchen
"SPIDER" and Fester trundling into the living room.
Then he appears
in here with this HUGE skinny long legged arachnid crawling all over his hands,
observing that he's never seen a Daddy-long-legs spider that big in this house,
and asking what he should do with it.
"Put it outside" says I.
"Don't be daft it's a house spider" says he.
It's a good thing I'm not an arachnophobe ...
Dulcima Once. a long time ago, my boyfriend of the time said much the same thing -
"Don't put it out, it's a house spider"
My reply
was: "How long have spiders existed?"
His reply was "Oh, about
28 million years"
My question then was "How long have humans
existed?"
"About 2 million years" -
" So what did spiders
do for houses during their first 26 million years?"
