Can't believe you have to pay.

I would think that if the council is your landlord then surely it's their responsibility.

ah... I'm not a council tenant... but they apparently now they treat wasps and bees free for everyone because they can be a danger to the public.

apparently we get bees and wasps done free now... anything else that requires a pest control visit from the council is £58.32   - and I'd rather give the money to an independent trader.

The find their way into you bathroom through cracks etc ... and then fall into the bath.

With all those legs you'd think they could use 6 for scaffolding and the other 2 to climb up

It's a myth, spiders can form their legs to make an air tight bubble, so when they are washed down a plug hole they do that and then climb back out once the water flow stops.

Shampoo, bubble bath, razors, conditioner, body scrub, action figures and various toys and from my last experience in the bath.....a spider  I tried to water board him off the side but he was too quick for me.

 

That was a quick bath.

Although there have been times I've got in the bath to find a man nearly up my arse.  Always turns out to be a deep sea diver or man with a big machine gun who has fallen off the side.  I really should get my son to keeps his toys elsewhere.

I have a corner bath so all my gubbings are on the window ledge and I went to have a look to see what I had there:

 

  • 2 candles in glass holders, and a candle hanging from a bronze fish holder that's hanging from the middle of the window.
  • shampoo and conditioner
  • dog shampoo
  • green glass cat that once contained bubble bath but now empty and makes a nice bathroom ornament
  • bioré face scrub and oilatum shower gel
  • penguin glove flannel

I think she would draw the line at cleaning my bathroom.

 

Of course, I was just fibbing about the soap scum for comedic effect
