Is this just your standard spec house spider?

Apologies for the rubbish picture, it was all I could get before he scarpered.

I imagine it's just a normal common spider, possibly a young one? but I've not seen one like this before. It was about the size of a 10p coin, perhaps slightly bigger

I've taken all the normal precautions of nuking the house from space just to be safe!

Cheers,
Ben

Aha, thanks. That definitely looks like it to me. I also noticed a couple of woodlouse in the kitchen on the weekend (which is unusual) so I guess he was after his dinner.

Cheers,
