Serendippily Feb 2021 4:54pm, 20 Feb 2021 20,915 posts	0 Serendippily Oo one of yesterday’s newts was to listen to and apply some advice from a podcast. I can’t get on with podcasts (sorry, like reading words not listening to them) but I did enjoy hearing ITG interview EdJ and I heard Fetch quote runnerbean’s advice about letting arms and legs go all floppy and loose to achieve an easy pace. Helped I think
The Great Raemondo Feb 2021 4:58pm, 20 Feb 2021 7,281 posts	0 The Great Raemondo I have purchased new petunias and fritillaries for the the garden and potted up some bulbs that were valiantly trying to shoot in the shed (can't remember what they are, probably a mix of tette a tette daffs and little blue things), so we'll see what they can accomplish in more hospitable conditions.

I'm going to have to get to grips with scrolling and swiping and pinching which I never really have - so. that can be another slightly longer term Newt this year. Spent half an hour trying to move the side scrollbar with the cursor before realising I just need to move two fingers up and down. Yeah I know.
Mrs Jigs (Luverlylegs) Feb 2021 5:59pm, 20 Feb 2021 31,490 posts	0 Mrs Jigs (Luverlylegs) Newts for me today were mostly garden related, first daffodil opened this morning, first blossom appeared this afternoon, newly mowed lawn and cleared borders, new peony growth observed. Went for a walk with Jigs this afternoon and took a different route. [IMAGE140472][IMAGE140471]

The sixth running of Do a New Thing for Spring

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.
