House spider

N and I managed at last to get into the garden today for a couple of hours! It was warm and sunny and we'd taken Mum to a local garden centre for lunch and ...inevitably.... I ended up buying some plants and seeds and potting compost :) Whilst searching for pots to put the two plants I had bought into  I found this creature. They do have such great patterns! think I might use them to do a symmetry lesson next week :)
