    Daddy Long legs alien invasion

    Is it just the north east corner of Birmingham or have other areas got an obscene amount of these critters?

              Pal I just had one on my foot while I was chilling and almost put a head shaped crater in my roof! Anything with more than 4 legs shouldn't exist man it's just wrong. NE Brum here too.

                    Yeah I've read about that in a couple of articles Mike.

                    Hate spiders and we are due an influx of a large amount of bigger than normal hairy bu**ers !

                      Have quite a lot of them here in Malta too but you get used to them, so long as they don't bother me I'm ok

                        Yup loads in herts too. Luckily my 1 year old dog has decided he likes eating them. Not so lucky for my house as he chases them... Is quite entertaining to watch! They don't really bother me until the dog starts the chase or until I'm trying to watch tv and alli can hear is their annoying buzz as they bounce of the wall repeatedly

                          ****ing *****! I hate them, the ****ing useless little ******s.
                          They are utterly pointless, a bit like chavs really. Skinny, retared useless little ****ers that bumble about bumping into stuff and not achieving anything other than pissing everyone off. I had to kill about 10 yesterday as I left the window open and they swarmed in..... daddy long legs that is, not chavs

                            Good lord, imagine being swarmed by boy racers. Urgghh, I will never open a window again. I personally hate moths more.

                            There are many DDLL's in Oxfordshire too. Golf course is covered in them. Literally everywhere.

                            If my damned gearbox bearings would get here, I could go out for a drive and blow a few off the roads.
