Hello
A biggish spider just came wandering by
I'm somewhat perturbed by spiders, and will normally try to capture them in some harmless way and return them to the Great Outdoors.
However this one saw me coming, and froze. Unfortunately it was in a position where it was impossible to capture it safely (as in, without risking injuring it), so I had to let it go on its way. It's now wandered off behind a pile of books.
Given that I'm arachnophobic but can cope with the damn things being around if the alternative is harming them, you'd think they could cut me a little slack and wait to be captured in a place where they won't be harmed
Typical arachnid, no thought for anyone else, blah blah blah...

Dunno if I can cope with another vampire tv series....
Maybe I'll wait to see if it manages to get renewed before I start watching it... I'm fed up of watching septic tv programmes that only last one series.
