When are they supposed to be around? - I just saw one dancing about on the window outside - is it not supposed to be Autumn before they appear? I am really terrified of these things - totally irrational I know - especially as i am not fussed at all about bees and wasps!

What scares you for no logical reason?

Beetles arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh !!! I hate beetles and I am absolutely terrified of them. They are sly little gits too because when you whack hell out of them with your shoe they lie there , acting like they are dead and just as you look for something to scoop them up with , they scuttle off at warp speed. It's only when you hear that horrible crunch of their shell that you know that you have got the little git. Yuk !!! I love the smell of line dried clothes and one day I put on a top I had had out on the line , just to smell it ............. until I felt something move inside it and it wasn't my boobs. No , it was a dirty big beetle scuttling across my chest eek !!! Oh and earwigs , urgh. In fact , I hate all creepy crawlies .............. but especially beetles.

I hate clowns though. They really give me the heebie jeebies. I think that it's the whole painted face idea - not knowing what sinister thoughts lurk behind that painted fake smile or what deformities lie inside those big shoes. After seeing the film IT , who WOULD like clowns?

Bats - I'm off >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I thought DLL's rocked up in Autumn or at the end of the summer - however I'm no David Attenborough.

My big scares:

- Petrified of spiders. Not particularly irrational but what is, is the fact that I lose the plot completely, doesn't matter who is about to witness my demise - everything goes out of the window and in the space of seconds I go from a fully balanced human being so a screaming, hyperventilating mess with panda eyes standing on a chair with a shaking finger pointing at the said spider (not as bad with thin spiders - it's the one with the full bodies etc - I swear they have elbows and knees). Funnily enough bees and wasps don't fuss me either.
- Also petrified of heights and any stairs with gaps in (gives me headrush). Won't walk up them.
- Don't like knuckles. Seeing that skin stretched across the bone makes my stomach turn.

I think Smudge will want your testcles on a chain the way you are going. lol.
Ha, ha, ha, ha! I'm never gonna live that one down am I legend?!! Hilarious!!
I always think someone is behind me if I'm wearing headphones.

At night I have to sleep on the side of the bed away from the door, with mr nutgone on the door side. If he's out, I have to face the door and won't roll over at all until either: 1. he comes home or 2. the morning.

Sometimes I have to check behind me when I'm sitting at the computer to make sure noone has sneaked up on me!!

I think that makes me paranoid??!!
wasps and bee's, I would literally run into traffic if one was chasing me, I lose all common sense!!
Ha, ha, ha, Annie - I'm so glad I don't have anything to dangle!!

Not paranoid, just very careful!

When I was a kid I hated looking in a mirror in case I saw someone elses face looking back.
Question Author
Mind you, now I would be glad for someone elses face - like a model for instance!
annie, you just reminded me of something else. I never used to look up at windows in other houses in case a ghost looked out. It was something I saw in an episode of Black Beauty when I was little and it traumatised me for ages!!
nutgoneflake - years ago when my husband was working late, I used to put the little ones to bed early, then spend the rest of the night scaring myself to death by constantly looking up the stairs, imagining I'd see a ghost or something equally as scary looking down at me from the landing!!!!

Mind you it was winter & it got dark very early!
