There were a load in Ongar, which is about 3 miles from me.

Went down to look at them a year or so ago and they'd all gone

Used to be fun - at night with a blacklight they'd be glowing all over the place!

Aye, they were there! I last saw them there in about 2001...

There are some in the docks around Wapping, living in the walls of the old warehouses. Not particularly harmful ones, and pretty small, but still damn cool!

Eldest son caught one while on holiday in France two years ago. Was fine feeding it wasps and flies etc and then found it was a female.

Looked at it one day and saw white speckles all over it's brown back. Looked more closely and yep there were about 20 more of the little blighters. Thought it best to free the mum then.................

Blimey, did you read the other story about the ones near Windsor Castle....that was probably more worrying!!
I don't mind spiders, and never kill them, I live in a 130 year old house with a lot of them in and it keeps the flies down, but the one thing that has stopped me going to Aus is the proliferation of bitey, stingy things they have out there!!

Great, I'm deffo not going to sleep now, live about half a mile from Windsor Castle !!!

My mate once shagged himself raw with a Nigerian girl from Peckham.

Three years ago on new Years Eve oneof our cats came in dragging his hind quarters, in obvious pain. I made the mistake of picking him up only to have him sink his claws and teeth into both my wrists. I took him to the vet who, after telling me that his spine was broken and he'd have to be put down, told me that I'd better get to the hospital because my wrists were about to lock up.
Sure enough, after about half an hour, i could no longer move either of my wrists at all. Apparently, this is a common reaction to deep cat clawing or biting because of the germs they carry. It was ten days before I recovered the use of my hands.

METHODISTS!

I once got stung by a bookie. I mean, what are the odds of that happening?

Stabbed in the right spud when I lived in sunny Brixton...
I'd just left some bints flat & got on my bike. Next thing I'm laying under it, trapped & being assaulted/mugged by 2 dark chaps. Got half way up & caught a kick in the nadgers, collapsed, got halfway up & got kicked in the nadgers again.
Managed to get my leg out from under the bike & stood up, Twat with knife tries to slash my face & puts a scratch right across the visor. His mate spins me around & punches me in the helmet, I headbutt that fucker & he goes down. First guy with knife grabs me from behind & tries to pull my helmet off. I'm choking on the strap so I reach back & gave his wedding tackle a squeeze that would have popped a snooker ball. He lets go, I start to turn around & he tries to stab me, I turn slightly & the knife goes in my pocket & stabs me in the right spud. Stepped back a bit (as ya do) & found my foot on the other guys throat & fell arse over teakettle.
At that point a car came around the corner & they buggered off.
Staggered back to bints flat, she calls ambulance, off to hospital, 4 stitches in the sack & then laid on her couch for 3 days receiving sympathy.
