Some foolish spider had chosen to start building its web across the front path at about waist height, between a bush and the railings dividing our path from next door's. I found this out by walking straight through it
I was opening the gate by the time I'd realised what the sensation on my lower arms denoted, and glanced back to see the spider beating a hasty retreat on to the branch from which its severed thread now dangled. Hopefully this experience will persuade it to construct its apparatus of death at some other spot

and spiders are good, and should be encouraged.

I don't mind it going about its business out there, but it should be encouraged not to build across the front path as it's not going to get away with it for more than a few hours at a time

This evening's televisual feast began with Mark Kermode's "Secrets of Cinema" review of Science Fiction films from BBC4 last evening (and recorded at 02:05 - 03:05 this morning by my television watching device).
It was ok.
The Soviets seem to have made quite a lot of SF.
Followed by last week's ep of "The Bletchley Circle San Francisco" as recorded by the same television watching device.
Thankfully the story wasn't stretched over 4 eps, but it looks like it's set up as 2 x 2, which is betterer.
The top of the fridge reached 33 deg C, but sticking the fan to blow air around the sides reduced it to a mere 24 quite quickly.
