Could someone please let me know what this spider is as I seem to have a few of them in the garden or more specifically in my potting shed. THANK YOU

Woodlouse spider probably, or at least a species from that group.
Tradition is just peer pressure from dead people

It looks like a female of the genus Dysdera, Either D. crocata or D. erythrina, which are quite similar.
