All muck and cobwebs

"You'll have to watch out for yourself," said my mother. "It says here that homes across the country are going to be invaded by sex-crazed spiders."


I'm going to have to stop her reading newspapers.

She boasts about being just six months older than Cliff Richard, Savannah. I've told her this is no measure of youth these days.

Pat said...

Pat said...

Savannah - the British equivalent of Elvis.
In his dreams;)

Oh dear. I hoover mine up when they appear in my house.

Anyone want to go for the obvious punchline?

I need to subscribe to British papers. they sound so much more truthful that ours

What do sex-crazed spiders do that makes them more scary than the ordinary sort? More scary to humans, I mean.

Ms Scarlet said...

Which paper is she reading? I need to subscribe.
Sx

savannah and Pat: and she gave birth to me late in life...

Scarlett P: I'm leaving well alone, I've been thumped twice today already!

nursemyra: all human life is there...

fairyhedgehog: she wouldn't let me pinch the paper off her to find out and she couldn't tell me for laughing.

Scarlet: this was the Sunday Mirror but she can find them in virtually anything. Even the small ads in The People's Friend.

Kevin Musgrove said...

Lulu: you'll only encourage them!

Kane said...

Kevin!! And what was your mom afraid of? That them spiders will invade every body orifice you have? =) Kidding.

Cheers to your mom!

Kevin Musgrove said...

Kane!!! Don't encourage her! She had my dad worried about badgers last week. (To be fair, she was getting his own back after twanging her bra strap once too often.)

I think she's right. It was all over the web.
