Amazing spider - how's this for disguise?

and the extra is from the other side - the legs were aligned with the zigzags it had made to hide its legs - incredible.  Spent the day meeting up with old friends and neighbours and then took the family out to dinner.  They had remembered it was my birthday, bless them, and brought a cake which appeared with candles lit, sacred scarves to put round my neck, a silly hat for my head and sang happy birthday much to my embarrassment.  Blessings and thanks for wonderful and kind comments, so many stars and hearts - am overwhelmed.
