Messing around barefoot with my new cateye lamp (dont ask me what model, I dont know - its f***ing bright though :oops: ) shining it out the back door of the conservatory. Then I feel a sharp pin prick pain in my second toe on my right foot. I thought I'd stood on something so shined the lamp down and find a large male wolf spider clinging to my toe biting me.

Nice. Its alright though, he's blind now. :lol:

    And yes there are european wolf spiders, as there are widow species. Very cool animals, even for an arachnaphobe like me.
