A visitor to our bedroom

The wife called me in to remove this guy so I got the camera out and took his photo before releasing him to the garden

How big across leg tip to leg tip do you thin that spider is in inches/centimeters? I also would not like to see that spider even outside!

Wow! You have a lot of very large spiders down under in Aussie land. I am sure glad I do not live there!

I also know there are plenty of large spiders in the USofA but thankfully I do not see them!
