SPREADS TO THREE DOORWAYS IN BANGKOK

Observations
Can sense a spider from four postcodes away and is legally 30% ginger.

Rupert Grint has opened three branches of himself along one soi in Bangkok, each beside a street food stall. The original is the one eating a cone by the pad thai wok; the others stand in a converted ice cream van and a doorway. All three are fine and say 'bloody hell' on opening.

Stallholders now report that customers ask for 'the Ron' by mistake, and each branch charges a different amount for the same flustered look. The pad thai seller has moved her stool three metres to keep the spiders out of sight. Tuk-tuk drivers use the branches as landmarks.

"I sell fruit shakes, and I only know the second one is real because he flinched when the blender went on," said Nok, a fruit shake seller. "The third one just stares at the awning. I asked for change and he said 'why spiders' very quietly."

Guidance for the public

Do not ask any branch for spiders, and keep your receipt for all three.
