Halves potatoes are a good claming remedy for sunburn if applied to the skin.

death by champagne cork is more likely than death by spidah bite.

I saw that on TV. But actually statistics are rubbish I think. But actually I have had a black eye from a champagne cork and nothing from a spider, so maybe theres some truth in it.

New Zealand doesn't have that many poisonous spiders. It has the Australian red back and the native katipo, the common whitetail spider can give a nasty bite though. The closer you are to the equator, the more venomous creatures you get.

I won't img src a pic, in case people don't like spiders.

Mark S = mean for trying to SCARE me with spider stories. I actually don't mind spiders at all, I just don't wish them to carry out venomous evils upon my bodily person.

The French call paperclips 'trombones', for which they ROCK. But you probably knew that already.
