Since moving out here there are two things I’ve come to detest – cobwebs and prickles. This week I’ve been getting stuck into clearing away about a year’s worth of cobwebs on the back porch. Much nicer now and I’m not afraid to sit out there for fear a spider jumps on me. Shame I can’t say the same about the prickles that are infesting our yard at the moment. They stick to your shoes and get tracked everywhere and if you happen to sit on one, or step on one with bare feet they HURT!
I have a sore neck and shoulders now from cleaning the cobwebs from the ceiling but I don’t mind; the result is worth it. And I’m going to get some surface spray into all the nooks and crannies to dissuade the spideys from returning too soon. Aint nothing short of a fire going to get rid of those prickles though.
