Phil, no, I am not allergic to stings.

I've just washed the car and luckily, the sensations have subsided and there is now no reddening, so I am happy that it will not react.

I do realize that spiders are territorial, so when I do launch them outside, they always land more than forty feet from my home.

This beastie is a reddy brown colour and I suspect, only about a one and a half inch span, not enormous.

I really don't have a problem with spiders, and my daughter noticed a change in expression when I was on the Whatsapp with her the other evening. She is terrified of them, so I did not say what it was, but it was bigger than this mornings, and I did manage to get that one quickly with the card and jar manoeuvre. I don't like to damage them, they don't know what we are, and they were here before we were.
