Customer sent me a picture of some cables that lead to a socket, needs them moved.as socket is below a window that will be knkcked through to make a door.
Apart from the lovely spider in the picture, if you zoom in there is some thing with a bright green eye staring at the camera!!
WTF is that?
Something lurks in the walls!

Probably going to want to send the apprentice in first on this one Gavin.....
 
Thanks for that Gavin ! I'm back in work tomorrow after a week off and given my love of spiders (when they get big and carry knives and guns!), I'm really looking forward to tomorrow now !!


:eek::eek::confused::confused::D:cry::cry:
 
spied or spidered?
 
popped around to this house today to move the socket out way of the soon to be installed door.

Using a torch under the boards there is quite a few of these green eyed things. turns out they are indeed spiders. quick google confirmed what somebody posted above 'tube spiders' about 2 to 3 cm long jet black colour they have a green shine when illuminated, poked and prodded a hole with a very very long piece of cable until one came out, that was enough.
Customer is now terrified and wants every gap sealed up!
