Sorry, a bit mis-leading that title, lmao....

Just a small (that's a lie too) spider for you to have a quick look at - go on, fix your eyes on his eyes!

Tegenaria gigantica, obliging male. On one of the rockery rocks, real moss (sphagnum I suppose)...

Awesome close up mate, those eyes are excellent and the addition of the vegetation really makes the image. Spiders can live in a nice world and not just under your sofa

Thanks fella, he's welcome in the house, would probably have lived happily around the living room given the chance...
