................

We were also setting up some of the tables yesterday, that was not quite finished so I will take more pictures of it today.


As we were doing that I noticed this hugeass spider chilling out just outside the window which was open. Fuuuuuu...... my reaction to spiders with bodies larger than 5mm across is that if Jeff Daniels in Arachnophobia. I just want to bring out a homemade flamethrower and torch the SoB before it can nest.
Makes me think of this great cover of The Cure song "Lullaby" by Editors, a song that is wonderfully atmospheric and silly at the same time.
