Nice shot, Pauline - but big on the "eeeew" factor. I used to have our version of this show up in my room at night and my dad would just tell me to hit it with a shoe (which I did not!)

Looks very similar to what we call a Potato Bug, or Jerusalem Cricket, over here.

Not the handsomest of insects. Is it a sort of cricket? Bea.
