Intolerable cruelty ;-)
To thank you for the english lesson, I will give you a little French one:
"Les yeux plus gros que le ventre" - literraly "bigger eyes than belly" means that you want more than what you can really eat.
Excellent close-up.

Sent a shiver down me spine... fabulous macro - is that spider venomous to humans??
Yvonne27-Nov-2006 22:20
The famed very toxic redback spider - one gives them a wide berth, so glad
they don't jump (at least I hope they don't!)! What a feast this little lady
has collected - superb macro shot Sheila! vote
