Spiders may have up to eight eyes, but they don’t all necessarily see so well.
Last weekend I fitted a new gear cable and outer to my mountain bike. I removed a black plastic screw cap (about the size of a small pea) from the gear shifter and proceeded. When I’d finished, I forgot to refit the cap before locking the bike up securely. I left the cap and a screwdriver on the workbench ready for when I next go out.
Popped into the garage today and noticed the screwdriver was still there but the cap was missing. A quick scan round revealed the cap had been spun in silk and hung from a web at the back of the workbench.
This made me smile.
Alas, I don’t own a camera good enough to show the arachnid handiwork.
The company that made me redundant last year and then slapped me with a 12 month non compete asked if I’d come back today on a 12 month contract for a big project they have won.
For shits and giggles thought I’d play along and told them my daily rate would be £1000, 12 month contract is actually a fixed term PAYE contract at £40k, he seemed to be very offended when I started laughing.
