I have no wish to harm
spiders, possibly a remnant of my adolescent Buddhist phase, but I prefer not
to share a bathroom with one big enough to scare the cat, so late last night I got
a yoghurt pot and piece of cardboard from the recycling bin, carefully removed the
giant specimen from the downstairs toilet wall, deposited it in the back garden,
and thought no more about it until this morning - when it leapt out at me from
under the washing up bowl in the kitchen sink (presumably having made its way
back, Incey Wincey style, up the drainpipe); a little startled I gave it a whack
with the bowl and took advantage of its stunned state to scoop it up in a
tissue and stick it in the outside bin – I did mention the Buddhism had lapsed
didn’t I?
