Did you come across any spiders?  When my parents had some fruit & veg
stores they would get exotic spiders in the banana crates every so
often. They would usually take them to the local pet stores, but one
time they called up fyffes and asked them to send their spider
specialist to take one away (my mother wasn't particularly keen on
killing them) so they send their chap along, the spider specialist, who
sees this rather large spider on the floor, he then goes and picks up a
five pound weight from the scale sets and drops it on the spider.
