CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

Oh yes, very impressive job made of the hammock. I'd better not test it though. Thought I'd make myself scarce for the day whilst it was being fixed. Went to Lake Vyrnwy to hide and soak up the sunshine, not in a hammock however. Motored back home via Oswestry and Llangollen, sampling some fine ale on the way (for once I wasn't driving!). Very tired now but having just found a leftover Danish, I'll just sit here and eat it. Mmm tasty, very tas........zzzzzzzzpthpthffttppp

Morning all,
What is it with wet summers and big hairy house spiders! Just had to remove one from the bathroom at the warren, frightened the living daylights out of me, damn thing!
:>S

zzzzzMphgrmph...wh...wha....ugh...what was that? Big hairy spiders? Aagh! There's one stuck on my face, help it's attacking me! Er, oh, no it's a half eaten Danish pastry. Must've fallen asleep on it. Mmm tasty.

Morning Bunny! Why do so many people have a problem with spiders I wonder? You would imagine, due to a slight difference in size, that spiders might actually be a tad scared of us! I was long ago appointed chief spider catcher in my house. My daughter's screams can be heard for miles when she encounters even the smallest of arachnid! Anyway I'll have a good look around here, if I see any I'll turf them out.

Thank you Kim!
My first port of call is one of 2 sons, but sadly one is away and the other had left for work!

So plan 2 as no option but to deal with it myself - my method (will make you laugh) is get object over it, sliding something under, so I have it trapped, and then transporting outside the whole thing, to 'liberate' it and me LOL

But if you are an expert I will happily leave patrolling the coffee house in your capable hands :>)

See I have a thoery about this - hang on whilst I sit down and try and look a philosophical-bunny....

I reckon our unfounded fears are from previous life experiences. So someone who's terrified of spiders lived somewhere, in a previous life - where spiders were dangerous, so the instinct is there to be wary. I reckon it's like that with all unfounded fears....in the same way it amazes me how many big strapping men are very wary of cats, they are fine with quite potentially aggressive dogs but a moggie and the idea of claws and they back away......

(jumps off stool)

anyway I'll get back to the breakkies!

I guess I am lucky, I don't fear anything other than getting old, oh and my wife when she has "that" look in her eye!! ;o)

I'll just poke about underneath things with this big stick to get rid of any lurking arachnids. (Poke, poke) There could be some under the freezer (Poke, shove, scrabble, poke) (FLASH! BANG!) OOOOOoooops! What was that? Er, oh heck. I know a good electrician, has a shop just down the road. I'll nip out to get him. Don't open the freezer door. Erm, soon have if fixed haha!

Hmmm ok then............

Morning stockbunny and kimoldfield,

Stockbunny I see you've been winding up Socrates re anything post- 1980 is problematic, lol.

Morning Bluelady. Sorry about the smell of burning; freezer had an electrical fault! Fixed now though thanks to a bit of quick work by the electrician; amazing how things get done when cash only payment is mentioned! Strange that he had to ask me which wire went where though; it's a good job I know a thing or two about electrical stuff!

'S ok to use the freezer now Bunny.

Kimoldfield, good job, no not the electrician, but that the milk was in the fridge then. Strange that stockbunny has disappeared ,it must have been the mention of spiders.

Had to pop out but back again now - anyone want a cuppa?

Hi again stockbunny, that would be lovely.

A large cappuccino, if possible, would be great please Bunny.

1 large cappa----capppitch-----oh coffee!

and a cuppa for BL :>)

Morning all, late start for me as i have been watching the Olympics in bed.

What's that Spaceman, been doing the long jump in bed??

Afternoon Spacie, I know it disrupts the usual morning routine of breakfast news LOL

;-)

gawd - serious stuff for a mo -anyone else heard the Georgia guy in the live press conference with Condi Rice, he is really slagging off the Russians, even had a go at the lack of reaction of the Europeans - it all seems a bit over the top to me.....

I'm logging off now, have a great weekend folks :>)
