Gardening terror

I decided I’d attack the rose hip plant thing beside the buddleia I hacked at yesterday, when I discovered a spider living on a web in it. It was no ordinary spider; it was even bigger than yesterday’s! Today’s was also greener, where yesterday’s was brown. Bark-coloured, you might say. I decided not to prune the rose hip any more after that, and moved on to the buddleia by the window instead. I hacked that down without incident, and decided to do something about the weeds under the other rose hip before hacking at that.

Bad idea. That was when I saw the second spider. Ugh. I decided to leave it for another day. Just as well, really, because now there’s a thunder storm - eek! Actually, it’s not too bad, and the cat’s in now as well. She’s sitting on the scanner/printer, watching it and washing herself.

Ooh, the storm’s getting closer! I’m less happy now, and so’s Puss - she’s hiding on my knee now. Maybe the spiders did me a favour after all, making sure I was in the house before the storm broke.

I don’t suppose the rain will do the cricket any good.
