I'm confident that it's a standard garden spider, over here we have a load of them all of the shop.

Slight hijack: Are the poisonus spiders common in the US? Do you ever get them in your houses?

I'll assume you are a US poster, and in the US we have two kinds of poisonous spiders, neither of which is this spider (BW and BR spiders). If you are in europe, i have no opinion.

Did you get bit?

Im in Charlotte, and no I didn't get bit. It was outside a window and I was curious as to what type of spider it was.

More like 3. The Hobo spider is often lumped in with the BR because of the effect of the bite. They seem more likely to try to get inside than BWs. In the northwest hobos have become a problem, and there aren't BRs in the NW I don't think.
