Sorry to lower the tone, but the Missus just asked me “What time are Livvo playing?”, thus proving herself indelibly Aussie.

There is no hope :worried:

The Wrap-around Spider, indigenous to Australia, can flatten and wrap its body around tree limbs for camouflage.

A more vicious name and it would be invincible. Like ’ You can’t see me fucker’ Spider. Wrap Around Spider sounds like a child toy.

This banded huntsman spider - whose leg span reaches almost 12 inches - has lived with a family in Australia for over a year.
She’s been living freely with the Gray family but, rather than reaching for a can of insect-killer, homeowner Jake Gray and his family have embraced Charlotte as a helpful housemate.
“We’ve been watching her grow,” he said in a Facebook post - adding that he hopes she gets even bigger.
Despite her intimidating size, Charlotte is harmless to humans and plays a valuable role as a natural pest controller, feeding on insects and even small geckos. In a world quick to squash or spray, the spider offers a surprising lesson in coexistence.

Brilliant.

Can’t see the Missus accepting it though :worried:

I am glad spiders can’t swim this far

I usually drop off a couple on my way through Changi.

I saw a few spiders that have big ugly hair. So that’s from you. Bastard.

It certainly is if all you do is lie on your back.

Don’t understand this, can you explain if there is some context?

A world of wonder awaits you :wink:
