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!

I think Mandy should nickname him Newt and never tell anyone why

Congratulations Mandymoo , how wonderful to have a new grandson :-)

Thank you Sharkie not sure I am deserving of the newt of the day but very much appreciated, I shall choose a newt tomorrow morning.

The hedgehog came back 3 times last night! The new configuration confused the mouse but not the hog, this morning we had 2 goldfinches at the water dish and then a single greenfinch :-)

My newt today was to go to a spin class 2 days in a row, not sure my bottom appreciated the saddle 😂 I had a disaster when my shoelace caught in the pedal, the instructor had to release me 😂 a test of endurance this evening as my aching legs are going on a club run, hoping it will be gentle 🤞🏻

Both my baby magnolias are flowering, as are two of my three camelias.
One, in a pot, is flowering for the first time. Had it for years, but I invariably forget to water it at some point over summer so it doesn't set flowers.
The one I bought, then nearly killed by not watering regularly after planting last year isn't flowering. To be honest, I am thankful it is alive at all!

My newt today was a recording of the first episode of a new series of a podcast I'm a volunteer presenter of. I must have got a bit out of practice during the time we were off air though because I wasn't terribly pleased with my performance (darlings) so I'll say no more and not direct you to it ;-)

Odd newt for me today - accepting that I won't run 100 miles this month for the first time in 16 months - and that I don't mind!! :-o

My Amalanchier, planted at the start of lockdown, is just starting to flower for the first time :)

Love Amelanchiers! In fact, I got a Newt one waiting to be planted. I have 3 older specimens already. I love the berries, if I can beat the birds to them.

Started a newt book. Elmet, Fetch bookgroup book I had completely forgotten I had bought! I think it was January's choice.

About This Thread

Maintained by Sharkie
Most of you know the score. Much in the bizarre way Easter has come to mean Chocolate, Lent is mainly thought of as an opportunity to Give Up Chocolate. At least until Easter. You know what I mean, 'What are you giving up for Lent?' * I say NO to this. Away with the hair shirts and the deprivation. Let's embrace change and the NEW. Spring is a time of renewal - and restoration.

Soooooo..... you don't have to take up indoor sky diving like my partner's 90 year old mot...
