Harry! What are you doing over there?! I was wondering where my Huntsperson had got to.
Scariest thing mine ever did was lower himself from the ceiling on a thread of silk until he was sitting on the washing basket. Which was level with my face as I went to clean my teeth at the sink.
I’d rather that than any of the several redbacks I have discovered in the past few days. The Christmas tree is not going up this year thanks to a nest of them that were waiting for me inside the back shed – the tree is in a box in the far corner, hah! And today, one rather large one dangling from beneath the bin when i went to put the garbage out. Eeeeww!

Is furry! Is cute!
(I should perhaps mention I have indeed shared quarters with huntsman spiders. Though its true, I’ve never actually showered with one)

That's only a huntsman. No harm in those. Scary looking though.

Please tell me you used a zoom lens on your camera… I would’ve died of a heart attack if I got so close to that, that, *thing*… Shudder…

Wow, he looks like a plush toy!
To get your huntsmen that fluffy, do you have to towel-dry them?
