Giant house spiders

Really putting the giant into the name this year. Massive effers.

I know there's some arachnid fans on here but not for me. Would love to understand why they bring me out in a cold sweat yet I could sit there and chill out with a snake draped round my shoulders no bother.

Must be some inherent childhood trauma or something that causes phobias.

Actually debilitating to live with, I'm signing up for the course at London Zoo that promises to cure it.

Anyway, seriously big bastard in the bedroom tonight, I only knew it was there because I could HEAR IT walking along a plastic parcel bag I had down by the bedside table. Turned the light on and almost had a Connery.
