Whilst watching TV earlier I heard a sort of crackling sound. I
looked to where the sound was coming from and saw a huge spider
running down a window blind just to the left of me. He then dropped
onto the floor, plonk! He's in hiding now under our black leather
sofa and recliners - not sitting there any more Just goes to
show how large these spiders are to make a noise like that!!

SHUDDER

I'm going out tomorrow to see what I can find for deterring spiders.
May have to send off for it tho as I'm not at all sure any of our
local shops will have such a thing.

How do these huge spiders get into the house anyway? No windows are
open and they always seem to drop from the ceiling!

To avoid frightening the ladies in another newsgroup I frequent, it is
a tradition that one refers to spiders as "kittens".
:-)

Some people refer to them as large black cats or pumas
