Found one trying to get across our concrete drive at work last year, poor thing. Not making much headway on that surface. Picked it up and put it round the back where there’s gravel and a fair bit of bramble and stuff between us and next door. A couple of years ago I found a newt marching across the floor in the warehouse at work as well. Heaven alone knows where either came from, we’re in the middle of a busy industrial estate, and the nearest water must be over half a mile away. The newt was taken to a pool recommended by the local wildlife people.
It was the determined, purposeful manner it was marching across our floor that amused me, but how it hadn’t got squashed by our forklift I’ll never know.
