Not sure to be honest.........if theres anything deadly though its usually in Oz!!

I saw my first redback on the shelf in Kmart - was reaching to get a chair down and there it was - scared the life out of me. Since then though I've really mellowed when it comes to creepy crawlies - you just get so used to them. I had my hand in a redbacks web the other week! Obviously I didnt know it was a redbacks web when I put my hand in it but it hi-lights the fact that the fear has gone!!
