Default Friendly Spider Programme:London Zoo

Me and Possoms are going to put on our incontinence pads and attend the Friendly Spider Programme. Quite a few dates coming up so we were wondering if anyone out there is as brave as us and want to join us?

For dates

For info on course

I'll be packing a hip-flask of gin so if it gets too bad, a drunken stupor is order of the day :scared:

Decidedly Daring

Right you two do you have a fear of spiders?

Do you want to conquer it?

Do you want to get exceedingly drunk after it?

Yes well come on down we will face it together

I would of loved to do that but live in Glasgow I'm terrified of spiders and really want to get over it before I come to Brisbane in November. Good luck you two,

I think it sounds really good and was all for signing up - until I read the bit where it said it costs £110. :scared: That bit made me yelp nearly as much as if there'd been a spider in the room with me!
