Yeah, Cumbria.... And in Cumbria we have the Lake District... And in the Lake District you get bitten by big, hairy wolf spiders every time you sit down somewhere... Which eventually ends up causing a phobia of the horrid 8-legged things... And also a phobia of the Lake District...

Because I don't like letting people down, esp kids.

Long story short.

A time ago, for free and for educational purposes, I decided to do local talks at schools and my step sons scout group, that sort of thing.


My partners ex husband (a bad man, that likes to hurt women, but that is not appropriate or relevant), used to do work in Iraq, and he would tell his kids all these nonsense stories about camel spiders, etc, etc.

So....

I little time back, I was going to buy one, same as the one the OP has here, from a bloke called Tom Halversen.

Anyway, I didn't at the time, what with one thing and another, but I decided last week, that I would buy one, for a little exhibit that I have coming up in two weeks or so.

I rang Tom.

Out of stock.

Until next APRIL!

I made the mistake of telling the kids I would have a real one for them to see, not realising that Tom would be out of stock, and the shop were the OP got his, they are out of stock too, nor can I find anyplace in the UK that has any in stock, so it's not so much me, I just hate having to dissapoint them now.

My own fault.
