Look at you all. Bound in a web of hysteria.

Shaun got his 60k within 2 minutes of asking!!

:laugh2:

:eek:

:laugh2: Me too.

Ok I'm two pages in and I'm still none the wiser about these false windows. I'm really worried about this cos I'm due to get my double glazing done in the kitchen and I don't want them to be counterfeit.

Just don't go to bed with one and you should be fine!

You reckon the widows are capable of sussing out poor craftsmanship?

:joker: I didn't even realise fingers and never asked,I'll have to stop chatting so much:hugesmile:

PS,I got it,cant believe I'm such a gobby cow,lol

You'd be surprised what a woman scorned can do

(Choosing to believe this is about pretend widows)

False WINDOWS.

Whooooooosh lol :joker:

I know what I read and I know what I said. Shut up.

Don't tell me to shut up I have a false window and I'm not afraid to install it in your bathroom!

You should be afraid of my bathroom for a multitude of colourful reasons.

:joker: yea a bloody spider would be the last of your worries in mine as well

:hugesmile:

Your telling me, if the colours in your bathroom are anything like the ones in your avatar i would be very afraid.......if I didn't have a seizure first! :shocked:

Well I have absolutely no pre-cognitive abilities whatsoever but I will quite safely predict there will be a 'what's in your bathroom' style thread popping up sometime in the next few days! :spin:

And I will quite safely predict that no pictures from my bathroom will be making an appearance! :joker:

Just to get back on topic.....

So, they've been here for over 100 years but are only multiplying due to warmer temperatures?

They can only do it when it's warm? :suspect:

I am not a scientist, but in my opinion they are doing nothing they havent done for the past 100 years. Just some dopey bastard has been bitten and the country is all of a sudden in the midst of a spider apocalypse.

The press seem to have jumped on this story and sensationalised it!

They have been here in Cardiff for as long as I can remember BUT......

This summer I got my first experience of a false widows little runts who were born in my flat somewhere behind my pile of books.

I never kill spiders or flies but there was literally 60 of them so squished them against the wall and painted over them :) it was for the best.

A few escaped the jesus dap though and I have seen 2 pretty large ones in the corner and cautiously put them outside..Well chucked them from a three story building (doubt they would die though seeing as they are so light).

They are everywhere and its not a new thing. If any of you live on a tree lined street like me look up when you walk down your street daily and you will see them.

To be honest theres probably more danger from wasp stings than the spiders.

*Hopes I haven't just jinxed myself.

they come over in the Bananas from Tenerife, someones going to get a little surprise one day.

Bee stings and even peanuts can pose more of a danger if you are extremely allergic to them!

" Anaphylaxis is a severe, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. It can occur within seconds or minutes of exposure to something you're allergic to, such as a peanut or the venom from a bee sting.

The flood of chemicals released by your immune system during anaphylaxis can cause you to go into shock; your blood pressure drops suddenly and your airways narrow, blocking normal breathing. Signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis include a rapid, weak pulse, a skin rash, and nausea and vomiting. Common triggers of anaphylaxis include certain foods, some medications, insect venom and latex.

Anaphylaxis requires an immediate trip to the emergency department and an injection of epinephrine. If anaphylaxis isn't treated right away, it can lead to unconsciousness or even death."
