Bet you get some Big Spiders in Oz too... I've found, the hotter the average temperature a place has, the bigger the spiders get :shock:

You get some real giant;s in South Africa... especially in the Northern Parts Limpopo and Mpumalanga provinces... Baboon spiders they call them as there feet look like baboons fingers... they're about as big as an Adult Human Male's hand....
Imagine waking up with one of those crawling on you 8-[

give's me nightmare just thinking about it

they are relatively harmless tho, rarely bite ppl and if they do the bite isn't any worse than a bee sting...

That's terrifying; I'll take have to take your word for it about being harmless. My skin feels like it's crawling with them thinking about them.

Funnily enough (or not??) I've never quite trusted clowns either...
I remember waking up in the middle of the night when I was about 14 after having a nightmare about a daemonic clown
Never forgotten that dream... can't remember if I was reading or had just read 'IT' by Stephen King at the time tho...
