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.

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

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

  10. 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.

  14. 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.)
