Arachnid Surprise (Phil tells me I have put subjects to all my posts)

Parts of my life are just needlessly silly, here's one. OK, maybe I obsess over recycling.
I take the garbage up to dump it but being a conscientious citizen (wet liberal, pick your designation) I first extract the plastic and the bottles and put them in the recycling bins. Then I dump the bag with the rest into the big skip. Now the fact that the skip was green, had the traditional recycle symbol and had a strange long thin slot should have made me think, and it did. The only problem was that the thought occurs about a split second after I'd released the bag into the skip. This is not uncommon with me and I presume that it happens to everyone but I could be wrong. Anyway, I feel guilty and decide to open the side panel to see I can retrieve the bag. It doesn't budge. At this point I could have given up with a reasonably clear conscience, but I don't. I move to the rear to try to shift that. There's a spider's web covering it, and I think "sorry little spider but I have to open this". It also doesn't budge. I give the first panel one more try and then see the "little spider".  OMG. So I went back to the boat and got a tape measure because frankly you're not going to believe me are you? I put the measure carefully up against the web. It turns out I don't have to be careful,as big ass spiders like this stand there ground, presumably saying things like "You wanna piece of me? Bring it on". OK, I tried, guilt expunged, garbage goes to the cardboard recycling.

Spider below and remember the tape is in front. It's actually bigger than the tape measure says.
This ain't Itsy Bitsy.
