I don't know how I've missed this the other years. I suppose I may have been busy with very small people previously, and not working / browsing Fetch so much...

(I didn't contribute much in the end, although i am sure there were a lot of newts...
...planting sunflower seeds with Pip & Squeak
...hiding Easter eggs in the garden
...doing baking with Pip & Squeak (chocolate crackles)
...getting first poos in the potty (them, not me, obvs)
...getting Pip & Squeak to ride their bikes home from the childminder
...organising the toys into tidy(ish) boxes
...making soap
...making beeswax cloth
...making a bacon bouquet
...making that insane birthday cake butterfly (including my own marshmallow fondant)
...going to the zoo
...knitting some dolls clothes
...taking Pip to a lambing event at a farm (Squeak was poorly/asleep)

That's it that I can think of)

I'll be back.

There's some brilliant ones in there - and not 'all' twin related!

There really were some pearlers this year. Perhaps its a bit like Strictly* - every year better than the last!

* insert own favourite television competition here. Or not.

Just read back, give yourselves a big pat on the back for all the fabulous newts - can't think of a place I'd rather hang out in spring that newt-town in the fetchiverse x

OK I need to know more about making soap, making beeswax cloth and bacon bouquets...

Hmm. I’m not really a fan of chickens. Also I don’t really like eggs. And Rory is a BIG chicken lover, which could be an issue. I prefer ducks, but maybe best to steer clear of birds...

WL those are some lovely newts. Baby/toddler newts are utterly wonderful. I want to know more about beeswax cloth too. I am slowly working towards reducing plastic use.

Got something to say?
