Customer sent me a picture of some cables that lead to a socket, needs them moved.as socket is below a window that will be knkcked through to make a door.
Apart from the lovely spider in the picture, if you zoom in there is some thing with a bright green eye staring at the camera!!
WTF is that?
Something lurks in the walls!

Thanks for that Gavin ! I'm back in work tomorrow after a week off and given my love of spiders (when they get big and carry knives and guns!), I'm really looking forward to tomorrow now !!


:eek::eek::confused::confused::D:cry::cry:
 
popped around to this house today to move the socket out way of the soon to be installed door.

Using a torch under the boards there is quite a few of these green eyed things. turns out they are indeed spiders. quick google confirmed what somebody posted above 'tube spiders' about 2 to 3 cm long jet black colour they have a green shine when illuminated, poked and prodded a hole with a very very long piece of cable until one came out, that was enough.
Customer is now terrified and wants every gap sealed up!
