Charitable Offerings

Got a great new occupation helping out in a local charity shop, just every now and again.


Met a lady there today who was so scared of spiders that she had to carry some kind of killer spray everywhere she goes.  When she came into the shop she thought there was one sat on the ceiling and was clearly very worried by the possibility.  News that we are beginning to see pockets of non-native spiders on our shores had really disturbed her.


The ceiing 'spider' turned out to be a black mark on the plaster much to her relief.


I didn't like to mention to the lady that a (very small) spider had walked across the glass counter just before she came in!
