Guess it makes sense for spiders to be all across the world wide web.

Honestly mate, there’s nothing scary in this film. Watched with with the kids loads. It’s a bit sinister towards the end before it’s all nice again but your kids may not even understand that aspect of it. Sabrina’s been watching it since she was 3 and loves it. Loved it so much this was Halloween this year….

Always on the defensive

Always the same spots and they still get you every time. Everything seems to attack in Australia. This may explain why our Aussie members on here are as they are...

Oh come on, I was proud of that one

Coco. Watched it again last night. Great story and love the animation. It still gets me each time when the picture of Mama Coco is put up on the memorial Love the film. 8.5/10

What's Up for next Month? (January 2023) What to look for: Two conjunctions, winter stars, and a comet! The Moon and several planets have close encounters, a new comet graces morning skies, and the stars of Northern Hemisphere winter dazzle.

My skin is too tough for mere spider fang to get through... I suppose looking at the bite it probably is a spider of some description but a bit unusual that it bit you.. they don't normally, I spend a lot of time in the garden and we have a lot of those false widow spiders knocking about and they seem to double every year.. we get two main types, the cool looking ones with the skull on their backs.. Or these horrible things with big dark maroon bodies.. When I was cleaning out the side this summer there were loads of them hiding behind the bricks and on the wall by the shed.. I routinely kill them as soon as I spot them.. better not to take any chances I say.. I appreciate the media can over dramatize them as being dangerous but I have had them crawling on me when I walk in my man cave outside as they are hanging right above me in the roof beams so I have to keep a beady eye open all the time but thankfully never been bitten so far.. Some of the bigger ones are a bit concerning.. What ever you do people never panic, you are 1000 times bigger than they are so stay cool at all times.. Me when I walk into my man cave and get a web on me... Honestly though, I can tolerate spiders I can see but accidently walking into a web across the path along the sheds and getting it in your face and not knowing where the spider is can be a traumatic few seconds...

Probably one of those spiders that made their way from the south to Central and North Europe. There have been reports of sightings all over the internet last year: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoropsis_spinimana
