Incy Wincy spider climbing up the spout
Down came the rain and washed the spider out
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
Now Incy Wincy spider went up the spout again!

or in Chris's case

Incy Wincy spider climbed up the drain
Down came the shower water and washed the spider up
Along came a jar and moved Incy to a Bush
Now Incy Wincy spider went up the drain again!

We had a similar thing when bathing the kids; we always used to flush the spiders down the plug hole and the kids said that's where they live.
One bath time they were worried about going too near the plug hole 'because of the spiders that live down there' and I told them not to be silly as no spiders lived down there.
Just as I'd finished saying that, the biggest spider leg you've ever seen started squeezing out of the over-flow hole followed by a rather ****ed-off looking spider!
The kids both had a fit but luckily I managed to get the spider down the plug hole after a few attempts!

Spider in the bath is nothing mate, out on Florida they get alligators coming up the bogs! Fancy that happening when the old plums are a dangling as you take a dump!

Still at least you've got the annual bath out of the way for 2009!

Funny thing is that I had another one in the bath this morning, no idea why they always seem to end up stuck down there.

Next doors 6 month old kitten took one look and ran out of the room!

Spider now safely running round the garden!
