Arachnophobia or should it be Arachnothermia?

Another hum-dinger of a frost this morning, and along with the frost came the fog. After Farmerboy had fed the cows, we headed to Nelson for a couple of appointments, and a bit of shopping. There is always a long list of jobs to do when we go to Nelson, and today was no exception. Busy, busy, busy! We managed to get back home just after 5pm, and headed straight up to the cowshed to speak to the men installing the milking plant. It's amazing how much they have achieved in one day - it is starting to look like a working cowshed again,

I took this photo before leaving this morning. I'm not sure where the spider was - probably had abandoned ship for warmer pastures.
