Trivia Pur$uit

Volvo employees have been confronted with a shock element of globalisation at their Swedish assembly plant - big hairy spiders that apparently arrived with shipments of truck cabins from Brazil. The cabins are sprayed with water before assembly work goes ahead.

Big hairy? Hmm, I like the sound of that.

Hi FHB,

I thought you'd have a chuckle at that one. That's why I put it in!

Keep smiling

Hi David,
That sounds like some of the spiders
were have here. One has to be careful stepping out the door or a Buick size one will run off with you.

Cheers,
Doug

P.S.
Hope you're feeling better.

Hi Dawn,

Dunno about tarantulas, but our huntsmen spiders look pretty gruesome - and they tend to scuttle around in cars on hot days, falling out of consoles and sunshades.

Keep smiling

Hi Doug,

Thank you, I am on the mend finally - but my voice sounds a bit husky.

Might see if I can keep it that way!

Keep smiling

David
