OMG it's big!
It's sooooo big it can't hold it's own weight to climb the wall (embossed paper) and I can HEAR it when it hits the floor!!!

Didn't touch it BC!!
Every time it lands on the floor,, I'm terrified it's going to climb up my trouser leg!

Now, where are those murdering cats when you want them?

Strange about the grasshopper - I've got cricket in my kitchen.
Must be getting a bit chilly in the evenings for the little darlings
