Just look at what they are capable of! He said they'd be marching and somebody would notice one on another guy's back, which would then be followed by panic on the guy's part, and hilarity on everyone else's.

I'm afraid if my wife saw that she would never leave the house. Those Spiders are Ginourmous!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was going to say it looked like a fairly harmless Huntsman Spider.

These things are great, the amount of bugs they eat is amazing, and they are a good indicator to tell you if it is going to absolutely pour with rain, as they flee inside houses about 12 hours beforehand.

Best thing I have ever seen one do was frighten off the next door neighbours yappy terrier by rearing up against it.

There was a decent sized one in my laundry today, crawling on the washing machine. Just a bit smaller than my outstretched hand.
Quick little bugger too.

You call that decent sized? I'd run screaming like a little girl if I saw that in my dirty draws.

Well yeah

They get bigger than that. Bigger than your whole hand. They're the big f**king scary ones.

Saw a pretty big redback this morning, it was about 3 inches long (not counting the legs). Not big over-all, especially in comparison to the funnel web we had in our garden a few years back, but fairly large for a Redback...
