Some years ago I was living in a house with my Dh and middle son. We had a nightmare influx of spiders caused by an air raid shelter being demolished in our back garden.
My son set about despatching them all, he was a man with a mission and we were very grateful because I am really phobic about s-- and my Dh wasn't too brave around them.
It was around the time of Halloween and Dh and I saw an enormous s- for sale among all the other scary Halloween things.
Dh wanted to buy one and put it in the outside toilet to give my son a fright. The s- was big enough to fill the whole outside loo.
I wouldn't let him do it and sometime later I told my son about is dad's intended joke. My son did laugh but said he was glad I said no because the Halloween s- might have given him a heart attack.
