I am always a little sceptical about weight/height ratio. I am 5'4" and weigh 10st 8lbs yet am a size 10 and people keep telling me how slim I am! Is there such a thing as "heavy bones", do you think?!Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14411805839087483575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-61758144510644040972016-11-04T20:11:33.389+00:002016-11-04T20:11:33.389+00:00Yes, a newt indeed.

My son tried to collect some when he was little, we made a tank with a bit of soil land in it and a pool but they always got out and we'd find them dried up and dead in the house! I am winterising my house, couldn't find any clear shower curtains to insulate the windows but did better and found plastic on a roll, 54"wide just right for my windows, £2.60 a metre, just the job from a curtain stall in the market.yorkshire lassnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-61814218117642770492016-11-04T09:05:46.237+00:002016-11-04T09:05:46.237+00:00Ilona - my husband spotted a lizard in our garden ...Ilona - my husband spotted a lizard in our garden a couple of weeks' since.

I noticed at a gift shop at Multnomah Falls that you can buy pins, like little tacks, you put on your walking/hiking stick to show where you've been. A novel idea! A few years ago we marked our map where we drove on vacation that year. Fun idea. If it's the following year, it's marked in a different color. Take care!Grandmabeckyl.blogspothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04362600588981799211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-80405491647609263482016-11-03T21:51:12.707+00:002016-11-03T21:51:12.707+00:00Glad you are healthy and love those dolls.

As you say, it says if you can pick it up it is a newt and they hibernate from November until spring. Lovely to have them in your garden.

It should be hibernating soon.
