That's Worthing breeding for you. You would get a polite spider like that from Portsmouth :-) Nice shots Brian.

Thanks for the comments everyone
Alby - Thought Portsmouth was going up market nowdays ?

joorb - most bugs won't bite or sting you unless you provoke them, but none of the spiders in the UK are dangerous to humans unless you are hyper- sensitive to their venom- most of them can't even get through human skin.

Brian- not sure if it was curtsy or a bow

Lots of posts in Macro refer to 'jumpers'. They are a common type of spider. I only figured it out since I've been frequenting the POTN forums... You have now officially been post-warned. ( As opposed to pre-warned)

I just love the spider in the headlights look of the first pic. Great shot. Makes you sort of wonder what the heck is going through their little spidery heads.

Not sure why, but call me JJ.
