Nah red wine, shame I drank most of it the other night.

There's spider corpses all over our porch.

One's huge.

The webs have been there since we move in never seen a spider.

So of course Rachel habeen out to check all the webs on the colorbond fence, spidersville

OMG..... i am sooooo nervous of spiders and those red backs make my skin crawl.

Do they only go to bite if they are touched, would they leave you alone otherwise?

thats a really good picture, I'd definately be able to spot one now! All my boys love creepy crawlies! My 9 yr old came into the kitchen one day with my mobile phone, when I asked what he was doing with it, he told me he'd taken a picture of his 'first aussie snake'. I asked to have a look and was gob smacked! It was a baby brown snake, very venomous, in fact we were told they are the second most deadliest snake in aus! I grabbed the complex manager and Cameron took us to where it was. Sure enough it was there on the hot tarmac with mum close by in the bushes!
