There was at least one every day and every day they were larger than the previous ones. It is a good job we left when we did, I think the next one would have been a man eater!!

I must take some photos of spiders then. We had one in the house yesterday with a body about the size of a 20p piece and legs about 2 inches long. Biggest ever I think. I should've taken a photo for you. It is residing out in the garden somewhere now, unless it has made its way back in. I'll look out for it. Oh…. I must take some photos of spiders then.

Can you see the queen bee? Insects are a great reflection of how society works. Bees are very communal and work (selflessly) for the collective benefit (community). Wasps on the other hand, work to their own agenda. Sting first, ask no questions... Insects are a perfect reflection of the different human natures;-) PS: have I mentioned before that I have an irrational fear of spiders (the house spider variety)?

But I do think I can just about make out what you mean. Hadn't noticed before. Insects terrify me (not our ones, but the thought of much bigger ones, out there, somewhere...) The Queen Bee?
