Leanne Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 oo red, I remember going to an outside loo once and a spider crawled up between my legs from under the seat I always check under the seat now, and avoid outside loo's wherever I can. I'd rather find a bush if I'm desperado! i spent my childhood in Australia and where we lived was over run with red abck spiders. every morning, we werent allowed to go for a wee til mum or dad had lifted the seat and checked for spiders, and yes it was an inside loo, and yes, sometimes they found one! PS and I have absolutely no fear of dpiders having grown up with them everywhere!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 You never know what (or who!!) might be lurking in a bush though Clare! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 That reminds me, when I did the Race for Life again this year, I was dying for a wee before the start and the loos were queued up, so I went in a bush and got stung on my bits! MY eyes were smarting all round the run! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 ! Bet that made running a tad difficult! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Yup! How did we get from 'check your clocks' to being stung on the bits? These threads never cease to amaze me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popcorn Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Oh, similar happened to me Clare, only I wasn't doing anything to be sponsered for. I was weaving my way home from the pub and natured called. I went up an alley to do the biz, and got stung by some nettles on my youknowwhat OUCH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Here are those short Red - they're bright! Clare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 Not only bright shorts - but very short shorts! God for you Clare! I didn't run this year (or any year for that matter ) but did help out on the finish line handing out the goodie bags! I belong to our local Ladies' Circle and this was one of our charitable efforts this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Well, if I had a pair of legs like yours Clare, I'd flaunt it to! Brighter the better! (What was that spare tyre thing you were going on about ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Good for you Red! They need all the help they can get. Rosie decided to run it this year (she raised £120 herself), so it was more of a gentle amble this year with bits of running - suits me not to have to train too hard! The course at Heythrop Park is lovely, with woods and great scenery. We usually end up with a picnic afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(What was that spare tyre thing you were going on about ) When I'm sideways on, you can't see the flab on the insides! Spare tyre magically appeared since the summer! Can't imagine where it's come from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
