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!

My moment of joy came when a red squirrel ran across the path on my dog walk today.

There were several moments when the rain stopped and the sun came out, and the painkillers were doing their thing, and work was genuinely pleasant today, so that's a joy. And sunrise was quite pretty, even though it was damp.
I also saw a very dark red squirrel, which was nice.

I visited a school today and as part of the checking in process a machine takes your picture for your ID badge while on the premises. A kid looked at my badge and said - 'that picture was taken when you were really young wasn't it.' (I just replied that I was 'a little younger' when it was taken without going into detail that it was only 20 minutes ago!) :-)

A lovely unexpected bike ride - although the white cliffs are not very white currently

We went out for a couple of drinks with my parents last night, we proper belly laughed at a few things and for once having a conversation with my mum she actually listened engaged and didn't get judgy/opinionated - result.

To think a year ago my dad had a breakdown and its took until late summer to get the medication sorted and him to be back on reasonable form.... to see him relaxed and happy and planning a holiday in the sun was extremely joyous

Watching my 4 month old grandson kick and splash in the bath last night. He was giggling and gurgling away too - he just loves it.

About This Thread

Maintained by Raetomic Kitten
As the arse end of the year is generally miserable, and to my mind is not improved by resolving to deny oneself one's greatest pleasures, I've decided to set myself a different new challenge: to find out create a moment of joy every day and record it - mostly in a Facebook group that a friend of mine set up several years ago for 'Fabruary', but I thought there might be a few Fetchies who would enjoy the concept too.

My idea is that moments of joy can come in all sizes - an...
