I got a rude awakening this morning.Ray Get Up and catch this newt on the downstairs carpet..NEWT!.I got up went downstairs.Sure enough a newt on the carpet.I duly caught it and put it amongst the tatties down the garden.
Now I know that modern houses are magnets for small livestock.I have seen spiders big enough for a alfred hitchcock horror movie.
But NEWTS!.

I used to have ponds up to four years ago.They were like a madhouse in the spring,with the frogs.My neighbour still has a small one.I still get plenty of frog and some newts under the carpets on the compost heap.
First time that I have had them in the house though.
