merrily they do mock me

Tweet

Just yesterday afternoon I was pondering as to how I hadn't seen any in the house for a while. Then, as I lay in bed last night, one scuttled down the radiator. No worries, it wasn't big, blacker than black and very hairy. This morning I was greeted by TWO of the little {biggish} rascals sitting in the bath. They weren't seemingly talking to each other. One was at either end and I'm not even convinced that they spoke the same language; the same species they may be but they appeared to be different breeds. Or maybe one was male and the other female? Perhaps they were getting jiggy with it and I interrupted their fun. Or, so as not to be accused of discrimination, they may have been two males/two females. Who knows what spiders like, not I. But it isn't only the spiders which mock me. The sky was blue and sunshiney when I left home for my last Friday Adventure with Toddler Niece before her Mummy has a few weeks off work. The clouds were white and fluffy, big balls of baby soft cotton wool. The sun now hides behind ominously grey clouds. I didn't bring my umbrella. Oopsy.
