innocuous77: Honestly - I would kill to live on your side of the planet. I just don't want it to kill me:)
This right here is why I will probably never visit Australia. It's mostly the spiders. I'm super scared of spiders. I can just about deal with the really small ones, but larger spiders freak me out, and they're not even that large over here. When I see pictures of the kind of spiders they have in Australia, I can just feel shivers running down my spine ...

FearfulSymmetry: Well, it's never too late to join in, good to meet you. :) I've only got about 70 games on here, but I'm working on it, slowly. Not that I really need more games, as my backlog is already massive.

innocuous77: Thanks for the warm welcome. I've been a gamer since the 80s (shush - don't do the math!). I've done the Insomnia sales, I've done the "OMG!!! Whatever! sales...

I just haven't been me here. So, here I am... me:)

Great to meet you - Hi!

gunsynd: I dunno,it's not as bad as your imagination is telling you.
Actually,digging in garden one day and breaking up large clods of dirt with my hands.Felt something sqish in my hand,and was very upset because she was a funnel web.Would never kill them just take to bush and give them a new place to live in.:-)

innocuous77: I say this with all the love and respect in the world...

Bitch please...

I did the same thing, except they don't have hives and the just crawl into your boot and bite and then you have ankles like grapefruits... I was on crutches for 6 weeks.

Honestly - I would kill to live on your side of the planet. I just don't want it to kill me:)
laughing,your imagination is putting you somewhere in a scary place.
Those biters are bad,we tend to use Antihistamines for some things that bite:-)
Looks like Crow is having an early night..

Don't let that stop you. Australia is one of the most amazing places on our planet. Just stay in the cities. And wear boots. And wear constant coverings... and (if it's your thing) just watch the lovely people half-naked on the beach:)

Sorry Aussies - shallow moment.

Spider Story don't read if scared...

When I was a young fella,came home from work one day and as I walked in door I heard a terrifying scream from my Mother.
Run in to see what was wrong and Mum was frozen in place near the curtains.
On the curtains was a wood spider as big as a man's hand.I got him and put him outside,for weeks Mum was worried for about it turning up again:-)

I won't put a picture up for you:-)

I'll give it some consideration. :P Maybe I'll finally master my fear of spiders some day. One can hope, at least.

Until then, I'll visit the other places I want to see that don't have freakishly large spiders.

Eeeeeeeep. And you stopped to take a picture of the thing? :P I'd probably have rushed from the house screaming.

My Story...

was digging up parts of my my garden and disturbed a nest. I didn't see them. They saw me. A small something decided that my boot was a better home and my ankle was food.

Can we stop talking about spiders?

Laughter? I'm a college professor. My students rode that joke into finals:)

To be fair and honest... I have those same students this semester. They're waiting for me to have an accident.

(or is that wishful thinking...)
