    This bad boy/girl is living in the garage at the moment. Doesn’t bother me as I know house spiders don’t bite humans.  I really dislike false widows, though 

    Could contain:

    Every spider in our house is a boy. My daughter hates them and we have to get them out. They don't bother me too much unless they catch me unawares. I hate daddy longlegs though, I think it's because the boys used to throw them at us in Primary school and they would get tangled in your hair. 

    I've just been thinking how few wasps I have seen this year but the most dragon flies. Maybe weather related?

    The last week of July and first week of August was the warmest spell I think. The 26th July was the warmest day of the summer here when it reached 26.5C. The days after were generally 22-25C.

    I think that was the day. We were moving overseas so it had to be the last day of school. Thankfully a neighbour cooked us a BBQ that night, I was in no state to think, let alone cook

    I'd forgotten how poor 2014 was for higher temperatures. Looking through my records, only 14 days surpassed 23C in the entire year - the last of which was 8th August. The summer had just three days above 25C and the absolute max was 26.5C.

    The only positives from that summer were that June was dry and July very sunny (248 hours), but that's about it.

    I moved out of my house in Devon in late July 2014, it was crazy hot. The poor removal guys were bright red by the end of the day.
