Caught this spider on camera today, she was on the side of one of my greenhouses. The body was about 20mm long.
Turns out she is a Wasp Spider, common on Mainland Europe and now it seems in Southern England.

:DWhat a beaut can't say i've ever seen one of those .
Sorry but if i`d found that i would have screamed the place down, i am terrified of spiders. Silly i know but that is well scary :o!!!!
Used to have the usual "horror" of spiders before I gradually became accustomed to them on the allotment, now don't run, scream or get the shakes when I am close to one outside but am still not tooooo keen on them in the house but can talk coherently enough to ask Mr W to remove it to "safety". Always say to g'kids that they are so much bigger than the poor wee spider that they shouldn't be frightened!
Anyway Sanders that is a beaut!
Oh, that's a beauty, Jerry. We have small black and white stripey spiders, but none as exotic as yours!
