Just because I am an Artist does not mean that I fail to see the funny side of things and these can be translated into a cartoon.    This illustration relates to a track day at our local circuit, when I was driving our Fiat Uno for the lst time.   Just as I was heading into a particularly tight bend …. I looked down, because I thought I spotted ……something…….extremely large,   black  and shiney – with a lot of legs – dart across my right hand……..

My exit out of that corner was, to say the least of it…..spectacular….as I tried to free myself from that monster!

Incidentally, my husband had seen the beast on the ceiling of the car (and I had espied a large heavy web underneath the dashboard) but we both thought the spider had escaped when we fired up the engine in the garage, before the racing began.

I know now, not, to look down unless absolutely necessary,  just in case……………..
