"Iona...don't move!!!" are not words you wish to hear in Australia, even if you're in the comfort of your own home. As I slowly creep forward I turn around to discover a giant huntsman spider on the wall above my head. I have to say I have never known fear like that, and I know fear...I'm scared of everything!
We run out the house to pop to the shops for some food but dreaded coming back into the house in fear it was still there or worse...not there and possible somewhere else in the house! Upon arriving home it took us a minute to gather up the courage to open the door. When we did we slowly creaked it open to discover the spider was indeed still there. After standing outside for 10 minutes trying to work out what to do while also trying to stop ourselves from fainting we've eventually managed to make our way upstairs to our bedroom where we plan to stay until one of our housemates comes home who's brave enough to do something about it!
This sounds very pathetic but for those of you who also don't like spiders...you'll understand! Just thought I'd share my experience on here hoping it'd be some sort of therapy but not sure it's work, still don't think there's any colour in my face. However, I have used the excuse of "I'm in shock" to consume plenty of sweeties.
