I've had a search around the forum and looked at a few posts but just wanted to do one myself. Hubby is an aussie and we are moving in November. There was a pretty big (for me being from the UK) spider in our bedroom last night and it scared me a bit. We are moving to Melbourne first then travelling round Aus. My thoughts are if other people from the UK have moved and still there how bad can it REALLY be? I know there are a lot of jokes about it where people think they are on every corner you turn.... Can someone give me a real insight into reality with spiders in Aus? Im not talking snakes, insects or bugs, just spiders! ????
