[QUOTE="Ridge Runner, post: 506946, member: 3775"] Well you were lucky coz they can and will bite because one of them tagged me on the middle Toe on my left foot, I was walking down the stairs on the front of the house and walked across the concrete near the cars and I saw this thing move just as I was about to put my foot down and it stood up on it's haunches and flipped over bit me on the Pad of my middle Tow and then vanished somewhere and sure enough I had 2 puncture holes in the bottom of my Tow, I phoned the hospital to check whether I would be ok and they said come up anyway, and when they checked me out they said my blood pressure was a bit high but they was not sure if it was because of the bite or the booze I had earlier, but one thing for sure is they are really fast if they want to be. Still glad it was not a red back or a funnel web, :( :o [/QUOTE]
