I wish I knew what it was as I was drunk at the time and was going around the house relocating the spider back into the forrest.

looks a bit like a Black House Spider, which are venemous but aren't likely to cause too much problem.
It's hard to tell from the photo but it's back legs look too long to be a Black House Spider but of all the ones I know of it most resembles that

Lets not forget the snakes I have seen 6 so far 

dont ask me what they are even im not that stupid to go close to them 



So If you are scared of snakes and spiders dont own a house in the hills or near woodland.
