Recent readers will know I'm a big girl when it comes to spiders. Today I got an SMS, followed by a phonecall, from an ex-pupil of mine. He has just been bitten by a spider, and asked me what to do.

The recent comments code doesn't seem to be working all that well. I will investigate tonight. Perhaps it's a known bug in the software.
