Pet spider

When I tidied away an umbrella that was lying around this fellow jumped out! He seemed to like our cosy kitchen, moving around during the night and sitting very still at a chosen place during the day time.
He stayed with us more than a week and than slowly shrivelled up. Only just holding on to the wall, his long spidery legs collapsing. It was sad to see this happening to a being we got used to meeting every morning.
Maybe he would have had a better change if we had put him in our little patio although the mean little skinks could have attacked him there.
