just got me drifting off down memory lane, artme
remembering all the things I,ve been bitten by over the years,

ants, spiders,wasps, bees, centipedes, dogs, cats, fish, (lots of fish)
sharks, (small wobby), birds (lots of birds, actually, most birds)
snakes, lizards, sue mackenzie (in grade 5) , horses, ferrets, kangaroos,koalas, possums ,wombats, etc etc etc.

no wonder visitors think australia is a dangerous place,

or have all our native species just got it in for me?

or maybe I should just stop tryin to cuddle em

Yes. Maybe we all need spiders for breakfast. Seems to have spiders legs on his head too.

He then threw it into the left hand….Yes.. it bit his other hand…(son explains he didn’t know what to do with it then….wasn’t happy with the first bite ….. certainly not going to let it get away with the second bite…) he threw it into his mouth…and ate it…..!!!!
LOL…now he wasn’t scared of spiders before…..but now he either hates or eats them….doesn’t seem to have slowed down his drinking or partying…. pity…
Yes….was seen by many of his friends….he now wonders why his nick name is “spiderman”….lol

..Just one of those times.... that you love your kids.. but you don't have to like them always.....!!!!!

Dunno what all the fuss is about.
When I was younger we used to love going
to the shop and getting a "spider" drink.
Lemonade and icecream.
Ahhh, it brings back memories.

I once stole a calendar - and got 12 months.

Many years ago I pulled into the backyard of the hardware in our little town, the manager and his sole worker were in the yard and being sociable sort of blokes they naturally leaned on the window of the old Sandman for a yarn. All was good till Blue flipped my sunvisor down and a bloody enormous black spider fell between my legs. Now if I had been wearing jeans it wouldn't have mattered a toss ...but.... I was wearing stubbies and the ravenous bloody thing with fangs like a motherinlaw headed straight for me "sensitive bits". I immediately planted both feet flat on the floor so I could elevate my "bits" up and away from the danger zone. Unfortunately this meant that the right foot was on the accelerator pedal and the other came off the clutch pedal and was planted firmly on the floor. The mighty 308 screamed, the tyres howled, hell, they smoked! Which wasn't bad as it was a rubble paved yard, not bitumen! The van didn't actually move forward but it did go downward about 6 flamin' inches! Eventually I managed to despatch the monster without terminal damage to my precious parts, the dust and tyre smoke cleared and there were the two hardware mongrels, covered in dirt, dust and rubbery residue, they hadn't moved an inch because they were paralysed by laughter! It did take a while to live it down too.

Discussing Harry the Hairy Huntsman with 5 year old son yesterday he asks if they eat bull ants. (He has some experience of these.) I said they probably would but bull ants don't seem to climb up to the ceiling so Harry couldn't catch them. He reckoned we need an elevator for them. I pointed out that maybe we couldn't convince the ants to go and get eaten. He thought that they would when they had had enough of being alive. Then they would gladly go up the elevator to be Harry's dinner. I'm still not sure this would rid the world of bull ants.

Don't you love the way little ones think?
My 4 year old nephew wants to be a vet, but he refuses to operate on 'ants'....

hee hee.
I don't even think he will get that close.
They freak him out for some reason.
Ant-phobia??

He ran out of his room recently screaming at his mum that there was a giant spider on his wall.

When she went to check and couldn't find it, she asked him where it was.
He pointed to the skirting where a tiny ant was crawling........

Here's Harry. Although I think I should change his name to Dusty. I didn't feel like going out the door anyhow.

You have got to be joking! Tell me it's a trick photography thing! You could put a bl**dy saddle on that monster.

OH MY GIDDY AUNT!!!!.......TL

How long did you say he has been living with you for?
Does he pay board? Because I'm sure he has one hell of an appetite .

With all due respect to the arachnad families, the sight of him has just made me shudder...(I think it might be the hairy legs....)

I did take the photo with macro setting. He's not bigger than the normal spiders we get in these here parts.
