Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Also a Newt: I fell asleep on the sofa as I came in just before 7 tonight... I have only just woken up... I fall asleep on the sofa a lot, but never at this sort of time or for this long. I was feeling ever so slightly unwell, could not put my finger on it, so quickly lay down... I ralise I have just slept for 5 houts... ekkk, probably don't sleep now!

Got up to discover the Sparrowhawk had returned for breakfast. A pile of feathers on the lawn and this time it didn't take what it couldn't manage away with it. The remains are under a large pot at the moment because I can't face dealing with it and I don't want the dog to bring it in.

I do wonder if they were a pair of pigeons and perhaps nesting somewhere. Twice in the space of a little over 12 hours though is still a newt I guess but an even more gruesome one than yesterday's. I hope the neighbours don't look out of their windows and just see the evidence and say to each other 'we've always said that dog was nasty....' :-o

It's not as if we are in the middle of the countryside - we are in a village and 'relatively' rural in that you can be out across fields and so on within about half a mile of our house but we are still on quite a big development of houses with gardens all backing on to each other.

It’s very much a newt, Baroness, and I reckon has a lot to do with it being spring.

Every new jab is a triumph star

Wow to have one kill in your garden is (I’d have thought) rate 2 in 12hrs is madness! Don’t envy the clean up

I'm jingling like a good 'un this morning - second newt of the day already - I've just registered to vote at our new address. I didn't want to miss out being able to vote in the council elections on 6 May (our ward will be an interesting one for tactical voting) so I filled in the form this morning (having subsequently checked it would seem I have about another month to get on the register but no time like the present!)

Morning! We have a fire engine in the mews, that’s a newt! I think the woman over the way locked herself out with her baby indoors!
My newt yesterday was using a new programm on my watch. I ran 8 x 0.25 miles within brisk walking for 3.33 miles, longest this year.

No newt here other than the way I felt last night I decided to take strong anti-viral herbal medicine last night. I felt I was coming down with something.
Slept like a log till 9 am, occasionally waking bathed in sweat. I am not going for a run/walk this morning and I will take more of the anti-virals.
Then take it easy at my client later, after getting quotes for turf and shrubs for a project...

About This Thread

Maintained by Sharkie
starblackheartstar The sixth running of Do a New Thing for Spring starblackheartstar

Lent has a special and specific meaning to Christians but has become an secular season of denial and hair shirting that serves no positve purpose. No chocolate, no booze, no -er - other stuff.

Why not treat the build up to Easter - as a chance to celebrate and embrace NEW THINGS - that's what spring is about after all.

The first few pages of the thread give more ideas.
