Thanks all for your good wishes. Yesterday was also my brother-in-law's golden wedding, so we spent the day slogging up the M11 and beyond, then slogging all the way back. Today was better: all day on a 42' powerboat down river and out into the estuary and back :) :) :)

At the risk of being very cheeky !!!
Not many of us have our birthdays on the calendar me included ;)
So will we add our dates ? and I'll start off by saying Happy Birthday to ME ;D
There aren't any until next year on my calendar and as I'm the Birthday Poster I thought I'd add mine . xxx

Lyn, And many happy returns from me. Us oldies all live in fear of getting something or other, such are the penalties of living all this time!
-
Very true Dave, fingers crossed things improve sooner rather than later x
Thanks for the birthday wishes.
Another thing with being indoors on my own, I have to sort out the spider problem myself . There was a tarantula sized one on my front window ( huge ) and I'm not a lover of any spiders ;D but a glass and a bit of kitchen roll hey presto outside we go. What an exciting birthday ::)

I admire your bravery, Lyn. Spiders are not for me. If I see one it gets splatted as quickly as possible with whatever is to hand. I could not tame it into a glass.... agghhhhh :-[ . ps, Many happy returns of the day.

That was with great trepidation Dave, small ones aren't a problem but this had a huge body and legs and didn't give up willingly ;D but I survived it may not outside .
-
Happy Birthday Lyn L and well done with the spider, I have the job of collecting and disposal in our house, but since moving not seen so many in our new place except when pulling down and old shed.
-
It used to be my late hubby's job but now my treat ( ugh) and I won't even look in my shed ;D Thanks for the birthday wish x
-
My job too, although I usually just pick them up and throw them out of the front door. The only ones I won't pick up are the False Widow spiders. I've been bitten by one of those and it's not an experience I'd repeat by choice. For those who've not been bitten by a False Widow spider, it's like being stung by a bee.
-
A Happy Birthday to YOU - Lyn L
You are the lady, I have not met
You are the lady, missed my net
Seems the only one, now online
Your views on topics, are all fine.
-
Thank you and the nice poem too ;)
-
Stuart. I wouldn't recognise a false widow spider but always catch them in a cloth before putting outside. I hate flies, so don't kill spiders.
-
My way of catching spiders, wasps, flies, is to get a wide neck bottle & a piece of card.
A small bottle for catching items on a window pane - slide bottle over object - then put
card over bottle neck - release object outside home - unharmed - For quickness use - M-T MATCHBOX.
-
Hmm, flies get swatted, wasps get ushered to an open window and spiders are welcome guests.
-
Castle261,
That's what I do with a glass , it's quite a tall one and when the spider eventually gives up and gets in !! the bit of kitchen roll over the top and held tightly by me , won't let it get out until outside. Have rescued bees in the same way but always give them some sugar water first. I wouldn't know a False Widow either, they all just have horrible bodies and lots of legs ;D

They're about an inch across, dark brown with a white hourglass shaped mark on their back. They like dark, damp places and are commonly found lurking under manhole covers. They're not a native species but have gained a foothold in the UK. I had one crawl up inside my trouser leg and bite the back of my knee after lifting a manhole cover somewhere in London. I've also had one inside my hard hat recently but shook it out before it sank its fangs into me.
-
Well now I know what they look like, but mine yesterday was definitely a tarantula :o it's legs spanned about 2 1/2" across . OK a small tarantula 8)
