    A triumphant Battle to go down in housewife history

    It was a rather pleasent day in the little down of Abbeymead, Gloucester when Laura rose from her bed and opened the pale curtains of her window. She blinked into the light and watched the sweet children walking nicely to school.....

    ....nah, I never wake up early enough to see any kids going to school! Who am I kidding?

    Okay, so here's what REALLY happened.


    After playing a few hours of GTA4 on the PS3, Laura got round to cleaning the kitchen and dusting Ross' beloved Hifi and speakers. Then she got ready to get into the shower and was about to step inside when she screamed a terrible scream that could be heard from miles around. Even the dogs yelped at the sound. - hey that rhymes!!

    Standing shakily, right leg raised high, Laura was about to step on a GIANT eight legged SPIDER.


    I'm SERIOUS, this thing was HUGEEEE!!!

    Not caring what the neighbours would think, Laura leaped out of the bathroom naked, ran across the hall to the lounge and fumbled to get her phone.

    "ROSS!!! THERE'S A HUGE SPIDER IN THE BATHROOM AND I WANTED TO HAVE A SHOWER AND I'M REALLY SCARED!" Laura sobbed on the phone.

    "Calm down" Ross replied. "listen, is there anything you can catch it with?....."

    -silence- Laura spied the argos book that she had used to kill a spider the night before...

    "wait, of course you're not going to catch it" Ross said suddenly, knowing of Laura's dramatic fear of even being in the same room as a spider.

    "Can you spray it with hairspray?" - he asked. Laura opened her mouth in horror at the idea of wasting her hair spray.

    "I have bleach!" she exclaimed.

    "Good," Ross said, "Get it with the bleach and hose it down with the shower head".

    After a few mintutes of coaxing, Laura shakily held Ross' aftershave and sprayed it at arms length towards the spider that seemed to give her a naughty giggle as if it knew Laura was terrified.

    It took a few seconds for the spray to reach the spider, and when it did, it began to scurry about the bath tub and it legs got stuck to the bottom. Laura picked up the bleach and poured it onto the little beast and screetched when it began to use it's legs to swim towards her!

    Laura imagined a croaky, evil voice saying "Even if it kills me...I will get you!"

    Laura whimpered as she reached for the shower head, turned on the water and sprayed it towards the spider to blast it down the drain. The Spider clutched at the plug and tried to stay up but it was too much and before disappearing inside the drain, Laura could hear its little creepy cry of "I will be avenged!!!"

    Laura ran forwards and shut the drain so no more spiders could crawl out.

    Now Laura knows it will only be a matter of time before the next spidy assasin will turn up......

    But as for now, she rejoices in the knowledge that she conquered the battle with the Spider in the bath!!

    If you just put your hand flat on the bath next to the spid, it's easy enough to coax it to scuttle onto your hand. Then it's just a case of walking down to the front door and flicking the little fella outside...

        why would you want to kill a spider?
        poor little beggars have a hard enough life as it is, and they keep a tab on the fly population.
        you should always scroop them up in a jar or whatever and put them outside.
        poor little fella

          Well ever since I read that article about a man who was humping a tree log and later went to hospital with a stomach ache and found out that a spider had crawled into his ***** and layed eggs which hatched and hundreds of little spiders ate him from his insides....I've been freaked out by them.

          Wouldn't you?


          .....and I stay well away from logs....

            good work. aftershave and bleach. did you pull its legs off too? maybe you should have set it on fire?

            when you say "read that article" can I ask what respected scientific digest that was published in?

              May I just say, that neither myself or my wife have ever been associated with log humping, or anyone that takes part in such activities (I have no idea what article this was, suspect it was some form of sunday paper insert magazine).

              When I'm at home the spiders survive (I sympathise with them too), but I'm afraid when there's a screaming wife in the house sacrifices have to be made so there's the odd casualty...

              I must admit we seem to be overrun with them at the mo, anyone else having this problem??

                If it's rained down in Reading like it has up here the last couple of days then there's no wonder you're overrun. Periods of nice/warm weather + spell of rain = mega infestation looking for shelter!

                    Apparently flushing them down the plug hole doesn't actually help once they reach a certain size, they'll cling on & climb back up the overflow later.
                    Of course in this case I wouldn't be surprised if the combination of aftershave and bleach did for the poor little blighter!

                          or the combination of products could turn it into a super spider and it will simply tear a bigger plug hole in the bath later and run amok
