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.

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

  5. 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.

  6. 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

  7. 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
