So I\'m sure your husband knows the score, and treats you with double lined kid gloves, s.z (I don\'t want to appear over familiar, but is there anything , any other short form name I could address you with?)
Let\'s get this clear now before I get exhausted: My visitor was a SPIDER very much as described in the opening comment authored by me plus \'a smidgen of imaginative interpretation in the main text!!!\' as per the third entry in this comments column.
Now to business: I\'m looking forward to your spider story - or hopefully a full series soon . Please don\'t let me down.

Wow this was a fantastic super interlude with the glories of solitude and quietness very enticing the way you describe it. And whether Harry was a spider or a human visitor it was fun to read of. I like to think it was about a spider as I admire and revere spiders a lot.

Huntsmans in Australia are large (for a spider). As the common name implies, they don\'t build webs but \'hunt\' for their food. Actually there doesn\'t appear to be much activity, as they seem to adopt a \'sit and wait\' strategy. One has occasionally turned up at my place, snuggled in behind a picture on my wall and strolled out occasionally to see how the world is progressing. Did me no harm, was not evicted.

Both Andy and jarcher : I have a theory that these places are part of an international chain, the Director of which is that well known old soldier, General Incompetence

I am pretty sure the missus and I stayed at the same place in Levelland, Texas (yes flat as a pancake, half way between the mountains of New Mexico and the verdant rivers of Central Texas). The THIRD room we were moved to had a bed balanced on cinder blocks that we had to level, and we smelled Indian cooking all night through the vents. I tried to take a late dip in the pool but alas the floating dead opossum kind of ruined the mood.

Yes I too have been in those places where sleep becomes priceless, mind you the worst place I have stayed was a hotel in Hartlepool where you couldn\'t open the window without a seagull becoming your guest!

Great poem, horrendous accommodation. I never stay in pubs for all the reasons you outline. You\'re no youngster, are you new to finding accommodation? There\'s lessons to be learned here LOL. Oh - always take earplugs and a torch.

Organised religion is a farce, I used to be involved in christianity, I used to be a Chaplain at one point but over the last few years I have parted from christianity and all its untrue beliefs. I still belive Jesus existed but I look upon him as the first Hippie.
I still believe in god but it is MY god. I still go to church as I enjoy singing in the choir, meeting good friends and have free car-parking in town.
May YOUR god go with you Dave.

your last two stanzas are deceptively brilliant,
really like the tone and natural story telling rhythm you maintained throughout your write, you have a unique style to add to the multifaceted buffet that is MPS, just needs refining, which will inevitable come with practice and time,
