Default Spider In The Bath

Well, actually there isn't...................not now..............but there was

Pete, like me, won't deliberately kill anything (except wasps, in my case, but THEY deserve it! Vindictive little b*gg*rs) so his patent mathod of dealing with a spider in the bath is to pull off a long piece of toilet paper, drape it down into the bath and over the edge, and wait for the spider to climb out. All very kind, but it leaves a problem
This......


is now lurking somewhere in the house waiting for it's chance to run out as I stumble into the bathroom half asleep and tread on it with bare feet

Or, it's going to make a tasty little snack for whichever of my cats spots it first.

Either way, it's doomed. Maybe flushing it down the plughole would have been kinder

All the little 8 legged freaks need now, is a little back-pack to put their ladders into...

*hmmm now there's an idea*
