As some of you know Kerry-Anne has something of a distaste for spiders. So, when this one spun its web on the path from our back door to our swimming pool, she was clearly not impressed. This was, however, before she noticed that the spider (now called Chris the Clever) was busy making his way around in a spiral, tacking his web together with dexterity second to none.

So while she still has a distaste for spiders in general, I was instructed not to squish Chris the Clever, but rather to move him to a more appropriate part of our neighbour's garden.

Chris now spends his days at number 15 where he has his own private garden-nook.
