  • Goodbye Arthur my old friend

    He was a spider living in the right side mirror of my car and every day he felt the need to put a cobweb over it.

    I named him Arthur.

    He'd been with me for over a year but he just became too much of a nuisance.

    I had to spray him today. Sorry mate but I did tell you to stop many, many times but you just wouldn't listen.

    Boy we had some good times though didn't we? Remember that fly you ate last March?

    See ya buddy.

    R.I.P. Arthur

    When I worked for Telecom I had a spider in my van between the dash and the window. I would catch spiders out of the manholes and put them in the web. Salem would always win as he would never get caught in the web. Great days. Thanks Arthur for bringing back some great memories....

        My girlfriend asked me the same question. I had to explain to her that by cobwebbing my sideview mirror each day he put my life and hers at risk.

          Well at least he had a nice life with you.

          Had he come near me, he wouldn't have been around very long!

                I don't get why you killed it, should have just captured and released in a foreign location.

                    You had him for over a year ??
                    I bet he was safe until he webbed your brand new Rooster plates.

                    That would've deserved a good gassing !

                        indeed

                        I have a rather rambunctious chap dossing in the passenger side rear view window.

                        The only reason he is still enjoying my hospitality is my laziness.

                        I bet that little prick is having a real good laugh at my expense right now.

                        No fear.

                        Justice will be served.

                        Insects must pay.

                          Have one living in the passenger side mirror,i brush the web off every morning but he spins again over night,i call him Snyder,he went for a drive to Newcastle a couple of weeks ago.

                          In my old Laser there used to be a nest of huntsman spiders living in the grill,probably why the car broke down so often.
