Good job I don’t suffer from Arachnophobia – a terrible fear of spiders

‘Cose I was merrily pottering around the bedroom a few weeks ago

 and this is what I saw

up above on the frilly cutain valance

Can’t see the first photo

Look at this one

Still not visible

Ttry this one

I’d put your glasses on if I was you

OK here goes

Last chance

‘Cose it went out the door very soon after this

Big hairy monster that it was – it never made a murmur

when I ( oh well, when Dh) held the piece of newspaper underneath its legs

I did move out of his way so as he wouldn’t drop the paper

“cose goodness knows where it would have gone them lol

I may not have the fear of spiders

that Little Miss Muffet had

I know I wouldn’t have been sleeping in that room

till it was found, thats for sure!!

Shhhh – don’t tell one of my girls that

as she still relates the tale of her dad telling her

to ignore the one on her bedroom ceiling

as she was much bigger than it

and it would be scared of her

and not the other way round!!

Known as Huntsman Spiders

or as one of my friends used to say

B.B.Bs

ps.  If you want to see a really big spider go over to this blog

Its a big one !!

This is what I saw looking off the back deck late yesterday afternoon

Looks delightful doesn’t it

 poured again for most of the night

but had sort of cleared up by this morning

Having had enough of being cooped up inside

(‘Cose thats where I’ve been most of the week)

I decided to take my chances and go for a walk

These two weren’t going anywhere so I was on my own lol

I headed for a local park –

the one I told you about when we did the

Brolly and camera in hand I strode off

Not a soul in sight

 – it was only drizzling and not too cold –

and I was enjoying the fresh air.

Grey skies as I walked around

– you should be able to see the outline of the Dandenongs

through those trees –

Should was the word lol

Found one of the ponds and some ducks quite pleased

that what the shire is advertising as Wetlands

are actually wet now

and they have somewhere to swim

Heard frogs as well which was quite nice

Didn’t see any tho’

Some you may have seen

Some you may not
