Caroline Old has written about her recent encounter with a spider ... If you have arachnophobia, don't panic - both Caroline and the spider are in one piece! Here is her blog entry: At the top of my garden there is a little shed with a chicken run attached. Every morning I go there and open the shed door, to let out our one remaining cockerel. Last Sunday morning I opened the door as normal, not looking closely, and ended up with a spider’s web on my glasses and in my hair.
