Kaily I’ve not seen a white spider before, it does look kinda ghostly.

harriett I’ve messaged you the details for posting pics.

Nice pic Saou, a close likeness.

It's quite a creepy spider Kaily, perhaps it's an albino. What did you do with it ?

I left him to his own devices. Thought it was a bit cold to put him out. I am bit of a softy.

* few people know that Vincent Price and Alice Cooper share the same name. Yes Vincent Price's real name was Alice.
I can recite the entire Vincent Price monologue from that song word for word.

Me thinks you are pulling ones leg on the Alice Price thing...

Don't think I have seen a white one before.
Looks especially ominous on that white background....

Morning Weekenders

Dragon, those spiders look massive, I recognise a few of them.

Great song Andy, in keeping with Halloween.

We’re having a new power supply/fuse box fitted and some retiring to the garage, today so I’m going to have no electric and internet for a while after 9.30 am. I’m ok for putting the new thread on which will be around 9am U.K. time.

Catch you later

An enforced digital detox Mags. Think I could do with one of them.

Thanks for the link Dragon.

Nons I have been doing keto for about 5 weeks. It can be a bit tough. I snack on brussel sprouts.

Therapy yesterday was horrible. Two of the group had a difference of opinion. It became very heated. Lots of raised voices, tears and general disdain. I nearly left as it triggered severe anxiety, bad memories and panic. Horrible. Healing no.

"Everyone has their own recipe to get sober" - TRUE
Each person is different, everyone's thinking is different. But still some of our thinking match with each other. We are one of two types of humans: one that can drink, or one that cannot drink. Some people have fabled amounts of willpower to give up the drinking habit—just will, just willingness and thus you will bake the perfect cake, you will have the best recipe for your sobriety.

Welcome to Weekenders parker! Good to have you with us. As per Mag's post a new Weekender thread will begin in a couple of hours, hope to see you on that one too.

Great pic VMan, I had to Google Annihalator.

VP's monologue is the best bit of that track.

Kaily that doesn't sound very therapeutic does it. I hope it didn't get too heated.

Good luck with the electrical work Mags, looking forward to the new thread.

Hi pparker

Kaily, that sounds very wearying I think I’d have been tempted to leave too. I hope you’ve taken something positive away from it though.

Morning weekenders

thanks for the Donovan song Andy. I always loved Donovan Hurdy GurdyMan,. Catch the Wind, Universal Soldier.....

Thanks for the spider info STDragon,. Thank goodness those spiders are actually really tiny. Looks like ghostie spider is a Buzzing spider, still looks a very pale one though.

Hope you enjoyed the concert Vman

Morning Mags - are you retiring to the garage today? No internet after 9:30 ?

That "therapy" does sound awful Kaily, hope the next session goes better.

Welcome to the weekenders thread pparker

Hi Dee, Hi Sao, Hi everyone
