LOL BP, now wheres Paul so we can scare him silly .
We just wont tell him that they are so small that its like having a piece of cotton wool on the wall .
UM- it looks pretty damn scary doesnt it? But Im pretty sure you'll find its actually a dolphin, I believe the pic was taken in SAfrica? Still I bet that guy on the board was wondering what else he was sitting on for a moment or 2 when he saw it

I don't know what they are but they are living in a corner of the house and I am letting them be. Anything that eats cockies is a friend of mine.

Tina & BP, its a daddylonglegs & its thousands of babies, absolutely harmless & actually quite cute . You get them everywhere, in almost every house in Australia (unless they dont live down in the really cold parts, Im not sure?), they spin very very fine webs up in the corners of rooms etc & makes it look like you are not a very good housekeeper .

The dadylonglegs webs are really really fine & when all the babies are hatched it looks a bit like some cottonwool in the corner.
St Andrews Cross are pretty cool to look at, usually HUGE webs & they catch heaps of flies etc, I always seem to have them positioned right outside my backdoor, so I always end up in their webs on a regular basis. But they just let me go & build a new web after Ive destroyed their last one .
Im certainly not a spider lover, but there are some which are very useful, I tend to live & let live (unless its something like a redback of course :scared: )
