If you’re feeling brave get a (longish) piece of grass this eve and gently tickle one of the trip wires coming out of the web.
They’re unbelievably quick and it makes me jump every time.
Don’t use your finger as they give a good nip. Similar to a woodlouse spider in terms of not wanting to repeat the feeling.

Almost certainly S. florentina from the looks of it but could be another unusually patterned Segistrid individual if you’re not based in the south.

Devon, there’s loads of them in south west England as they initially colonised on the south coast I think from Europe.
They seem to love old brick walls which have been drilled before as I imagine it makes tunnel web building nice and easy.
Yep that fangs are a lovley iridescent green but couldn’t really get it focussed due to poor iphone camera and beers.

Bought this fork off merlin, as linked earlier. Impulse purchase and didn’t read bit about steerer so I’m hoping it may be of some use to one of you. Taken some more measurements which weren’t initially provided too.
Merlin carbon gravel fork, 1 1/8- 1 1/2 tapered carbon steerer 220mm, steerer bung included. As far as I can tell it’s new though may have been fitted to a display bike, flat mount, qr, mudguard mounts, internal cable routing, 1 threaded boss on inside of each fork leg and it’s blue. A-c seems to be 398, 53 offset. 595g according to kitchen scales.
Looking for what’s I paid, so that’s £25 + postage.

@ColinTheBald Maxcatch toothpick arrived today and is remarkably compact. Ordered a reel too as managed to kill my little greys one.
Came with free fly line, free second reel (only paid for a spare spool) and a fantastically terrible fishing hat
