Are you awake?

  • 1. That would mean being in the same room as them.
    2. That would put me at arms length from them 😱
    3. If they moved I would have a heart attack.
    I have used the hoover in an emergency,  but then it has to go outside as I dare not empty it!

    @rowlandscastle444,  no, it's not a battery one. Just a manual  one and yes,unfortunately
    @purplerallim, you do have to be in the same room as them. I take a big breath, locate target and clamp the catcher over said spider and hurl it outside😲🙂
  • A lovely idea.

    I'm really hoping to get a decent sleep tonight.

    We call them Humphrey. Usually Humphrey comes out from under the sofa when we have guests and wanders across the carpet.

    Awake. Meh. I should not have grabbed the phone: bad move. 
    I have one of those spider catchers, very effective. I am not too bothered by spiders if they keep to the garden but recently one climbed down from the ceiling while I was reading in bed and dangled between book and nose. Ewwwww!! You can imagine the ensuing scene. 
    Going to read a bit (paper book) and hopefully will sleep a bit more. 😴

    I was awake on and off every twenty minutes or so all night until about 3:30 when the temperature dropped. Then I slept until just now. 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    Woke at 3am - went back to sleep at 5am until 7am.  Not so bad!!
    A good hoeing is worth two waterings.

  • Wife was up at 4:15am.. I've been awake on an off since then. Finally got up at 7am, which is good for me, but really haven't slept a great deal.
    It looks as though many of you are the same.
    Good morning - or should that be, yawning!!
  • Was hot at first in bed and didn't settle till 2am, but then slept for 5 hours, that's a good one for me.
