So we found this newt in my garden.

  1. We’d better get back, ’cause it’ll be dark soon, and they mostly come at night… mostly.

  2. At first sight, I thought it was a “common lizard” which are found in Ireland. Even though I haven’t seen one so not that common!

  3. Nice, I used to see loads of them when I was younger not so much nowadays. Mainly due to:

    a: Me being older and not playing down the fields (as much) and
    b. Habitat being destroyed by housing, progress, farming etc.

  4. Remember finding one of these with my cousins under their parents car when we were about 6

    We didn’t know what it was and were sure it came from Japan and must have gotten stuck in the car (a Mitsubishi Galant) when it was being shipped here… ignoring the fact it was a second hand car haha
