Not the multilegged variety anyway.

I LOOKED :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:

Was brave enough to get past the scorpion story and to the 'different varieties of spiders you'll find in Alberta' saw a BIG furry (I dont care WHAT you say, it looks furry to me!) brown spider sat in someones hand... wolf spider I think it was... next photo down was a close up of its face/eyes... I wont sleep tonight!!

Now i know why some of your posts contain typos, it's that "multitasking"

That's all kinds of wrong. I'm not even clicking that link, I am THAT MUCH of a wuss.

I've got panda eyes today... ugh.. angelic, you sure you dont want to move to Montreal where all we get is the occasion (MUCH smaller then that one on the website) wolf spider? j/k

angelic_fruitcake

I just want to move to a land where spiders are illegal! But I will hazard a guess at that being unlikely. I can carry on telling myself that there aren't as many spiders in Canada as there are in Australia...eeeuwwww.

Well, we don't seem to get all the spiders and cobwebs in the house here, like we did in the UK.

I don't mind if they stay outside. They have their territory, I have mine. It's when they step over the line and appear in my bath that it gets personal.

I can live with those stripy garden spiders, although I have to shoo loads of them off my washing line every morning in September as the little sods build webs across to the garage and I have been known to walk through them...eeeeeeek!

I assume so. Was intending to check next week to see if a location had been chosen.

Such a stereotype, I've been in ten public toilets in the UK this week; all of which were in good condition and none of which containing men eager to stick anything in my bum. Public toilets in Canada are too rare for a fair comparison.

It's obvious that this discussion has gone down the loo!

Shocklingly, I actually agree with db on this point... there are far more free public toilets over here then there were in Montreal...

Very often in Canada we would have to pop into a restaurant and have one person order something small, like a coffee, while the other ran to use the facilities before anyone cottoned on of the staff. McDonalds, Tim Hortons, and Burger King where safe havens where anyone could waltz in like you own the place and use the loos as you please....

Ladies, tip for you, ALWAYS carry kleenex in handbag as back up on you if visiting above mentioned fast-food loos as they aren't as regularly cleaned/toilet paper replaced as our pretty Canadian public toilets. More then once been caught doing the 'waddle & wash' after clean looking toilets turned out to be empty of anything vaguely toilet paperish as Canadians dont need disposable towelletes, costs too many trees... they're all blow dry jobs in our toilets like nature intended!

Why do you think so many women enjoy spending time at the large "malls" or shopping centres as they were called in Montreal... because its one of the few places that you may have to walk a distance, but DO actually have (usually) half decent public loos, usually about par with how expensive or crappy the shopping centre is

You can see famous Canadian Public Toilets in their habit which is mainly in expensive touristy areas especially those prone to foreign diplomats and world-wide sporting events or where you are expected to show how much money you can throw around. These being, of course, the only places were Canadians have bowel functions
