I found a spider by front door. Infact it was under a towel i had left there to stop the draft. Its was about the size of 1 and half 10p's all brown suede lookin, a very large raised bum. Smallish legs, what could it be. I have not seen one like this before, I wont go home because there could be more. I am so scared of spiders

pls advice

Without a photograph there's little chance of telling which of our 650 species it might be. There are no species in the UK that you have to be particularly bothered about, and at the end of the day spiders are everywhere like it or not. Just ignore them, they're really not interested in us.

Oh HI. Thanks for the reply. The spider was nothing like I have ever seen. I was a bit worried because next door had been to OZ, hope its not a OZ Spider. And could there be more?

have you thought about calling your nearest zoo and speaking to there invertibrates department they may want to take a peak or see if some one is brave enough to get a picture.
