I told someone today about Ray being bitten on the lip and that I was
convinced it was a spider what dunnit. He sent me the following which I
find rather alarming!

Living, as I do, reasonably close to Heathrow I'm always a bit careful if I
come across any spider I don't recognise, like the totally lime green one
that proceeded to hang down in front of my eyes whilst driving the 90. Not
been able to ID it yet.


There's something called a Green Lynx spider but no, I haven't Googled for a
pic of it, thanks!
