Gigantia is just stolen from the latin name for the Uk's common house spider, Tegenaria gigantea. |

i leave all things with an unusual and plain wrong amount of legs for luke to deal with.. the last spider we had in the room was a nightmare..i could see it moving along the wall and it took luke 4 attempts to get it with some tissue.. i was nearly climbing the walls trying to get away from it - especially when it fell down the back of the bed and towards my foot =|

Yeah, but it wouldn't fit, would it? Mind you, it would be all cold and slimy - not nice!
If there's anything I dislike it's those damn daddy longlegs flies- they always aim straight for your forehead. The cats are good at catching them - trouble is, they put them down carefully to play with, and the dratted things zoom off again! And if you catch one and put it out it comes straight back in again to play ... I should just harden my heart and go crunch! |

Ooooohhhh! That's a very fine specimen! Nice one! It reminds me of the time when I worked in an art college as a model and one like that came out and trotted across the floor. You could HEAR its toes clicking on the lino ... honest!
Bedroom, eh? You know, it was probably sizing you up! |

I don't have too much of a phobia with spiders any more. When I was like 12 or something I went on a school trip and we were amidst a talk about unusual creatures. The first animal to be brought out was a lovely Chilean Rose tarantula. My hands were shaking but I made myself be the first person to hold it. Now I don't have an issue with spiders any more.
I get rid of them for my mum, and I'm sure that when my OH and I move out it'll be me, not my 6"10 giant of a man, that gets rid of them. Sigh. |

| Haha, my OH is nothing like that. Usually if he spots a moth he screams "Kill it with fire!" and hides under the duvet. Oh dear! lol. |
