Nothing could live in Andy's shed.
My shed is full of bikes, old paint and tools I don't know how to use... Even I avoid going in there...

Unfortunately my shed is full of tools I do know how to use but if I go anywhere near them I'll be forced to do so.

They don't have real spiders in the UK, they're just tiddlers.

Biggest uk spider I've seen was about 6 inches across, which was big enough. Uncovered it whilst renovating my parents 200 year old house back in the 80's.

We had a proper one in SA, called Bobbejaan or Baboon spiders. Had them regularly in the house, especially when it rained

And then the Chilean aranja de pollito has to be experienced to be believed.

Having a background in Zoology (as well as Archaeology) I'm very well of the horrors you have on the underbelly of the world
When I moved to Scotland it always amused me that anything over one inch was seen as being a really big spider!
