I know, most of you will hate spiders and wonder why I write about spiders. I’m not particularly keen on them either but I am happy for them to live in a place which is not my home. Those who are brave enough to come inside will be re-homed. If they are lucky, the will be set free. If not, they will be ‘re-homed’ in the hoover…
Jokes aside, spiders are useful. They eat a lot of unwanted insects. If I were to choose my favourite spider, it would be the garden spider. I know it sounds stupid but I like them with their white cross at their back and I can’t kill them.
Another thing about spiders and cobwebs in the garden is that it always makes me think that autumn is coming. This picture was taken in our garden last weekend and my first thought was ‘autumn is coming soon’.
