I can handle spiders, better than my BF and a bunch of girls I work with, as long as they are NOT on me. That would have freaked me out so bad!! I also can't stand crickets or grasshoppers because they can JUMP on me!! ICK!!

Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.
Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

We have huntsman spiders here that grow to 4 - 5 inches and up in the tropical parts there are tarantulas and bird spiders which are a Lot bigger! Huntsmans are found in most houses near us.
Here's some information and photos of the big guys: http://www.amonline.net.au/factSheet...an_spiders.htm

What freaked me out more was the parasite on the one in the last picture!
I felt so sorry for the one with the wasp parasite on it.

Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

Oooo, I had one in my bath yesterday morning just like that! As a rule, spiders don't bother me, although I would be concerned that one on my shoulder would run down my neck.

It's definitely one of the house spiders we have here in the UK, harmless and common.YEaaeeeeeeeeeee!!!! Egads!
Those things are creepy. I like to look at them outside, but i keep my distance.
p.s. for what it's worth... since everyone else is stating what they think it is... It looks like a type of Garden spider to me. ...maybe just because of how stretch looking the front legs are... other than that it looks like the unidentified window spiders that i call Guardian spiders. (long story... but as much as those creep me out... I like having them around. They've done me a few favors.) It actually looks like a mix between the two from around here.
