I noticed this on the boundary wall of my house and seems to be a dead false widow. I believe these are invasive in Ireland. While taking a look I noticed a nest with eggs inside and there seems to be another spider in the top center of that shot. I only noticed the second spider when I reviewed the photo just now. The second one is about 1/4 the size of the bigger one. Did it take on the false widow and win?

Found these plastic pieces in front load washing machine after completing a wash cycle. Don't know if accidentally put in wash or is part of machine. I'm thinking most likely part of the drum that fell off, because I have no idea what it is or how it ended up in wash. Please help me figure this out.
