Was the spider weighed in with the royal family as everyone arrived for Christmas?

Sorry for the repeat. Some bug other than the spider has once again attacked the blog software.

An utterly iron-sphered Australian on a web (heh) forum I frequented said a huntsman spider showed up in their bedroom from time to time. They didn't mind, for the same reason as in the article: because it was good at catching bugs. That's better than having bugs?? 😲 Even my great-aunt's old fur headpiece disturbs me with its tarantulan appearance. I don't know what that kind of hat is called but it's probably an arachlid.

He's more afraid of you than you are of...
No, never mind.

Maybe he'll let a saltwater crocodile live in his house to keep away squirrels. Or maybe an inland taipan......

A spider that size is the one letting YOU live in the house.

Perhaps the spider kept the landlord away and unable to collect the rent?

As if he could stop it from getting in.

He needed the rent money.
