BBC One Show Friday 18th Sept

[Ray Hale]

Thanks for the comments guys. I have to admit that I dont usually handle my Ts. The BTS does not condone it but neither do we condemn it. We merely advocate that you must make the choice given the circumstances at the time. In this instance George McGavin is a well respected and sensible guy. I was never far form the spider (third extra from the back) and Angela was even closer (behind Victoria Wood hogging my limelight). I think it was a fairly positive piece even if they did completely mis-identify the so called tarantula that bit the girl.....thats TV for you.

PS

We have copies of that poster for sale (£5 plus P and P) if you want one. All proceeds go to the club. Drop me an e-mail

Thanks for the link Ray. The other spider clips are quite good too. Worth the 20-25 min total watch.

Spider week was brilliant, the highlight being Tarantulas with Mr Hale on the Friday - well done!!
