Thank you, JustJazzie. Yes, that jumper was really inquisitive.

Thank you, Nevermore1. So what kind of nightmare did you get?

Great as always Kurt!

Thank you, JacaRanda.

I'm beyond terrified of spiders (nearly wrecked my car once due to one being in the car), always end up dreaming they're in the bed

As I keep saying, spiders are one poor misunderstood creatures, all they ever wanted was to cuddle a little! Probably the reason they come to your bed in the first place..

I can't get over how cool that first shot is Kurt, pretty awesome colours in that one. Nice shots as always.

Sorry to hear that. Just look at them more often, esp jumping spiders. That should help.

I like how you got the silk on that last shot. I don't see that often.
