Fed up with dark mornings and wet weather? A launch project in Exeter could be just what you need to brighten your day.
Fun A Day was started in 2004 in Philadelphia, USA by a group of friends wanting to stay creative through the winter. It has since been adopted across the USA and has ventured as far as Dundee, Scotland. This year it hits Exeter. Exeter residents and recent imports Stephen Fisher and Ali Lucas are launching Fun A Day in Exeter, to be conducted through February with an exhibition at Positive Light Projects on 18-19th March, 2023.

Alex Nicholls cancelled out Aaron McGowan’s opener as the Grecians played out a 1-1 draw with Morecambe at St James Park.
The Shrimps’ goal came against the run of play after a quarter of an hour, and Nicholls’ equaliser – controlling a Tom Nichols cross and firing in – came ten minutes from time.
However Nichols received his marching orders in the game’s last action after an exasperated swing of his foot caught an opposition player.
Four changes were made to the Exeter City line-up that saw off Cheltenham at Whaddon...
Exeter City came from two goals behind to force a 2-2 draw at home against Cambridge United.
The Grecians fell behind to a neat finish by Robbie Simpson just before the break, and the lead was extended soon after half-time when Craig Woodman touched a cross into his own net.
However the comeback was on when Tom Nichols netted his 11th of the season midway through the second period with a powerful strike across goal.
And then the scores were tied up with minutes to spare when David Wheeler rose highest to head in for...
Exeter City and Bury shared the points with a 1-1 draw at Gigg Lane.

However it was former Exeter man Daniel Nardiello that levelled up the scores just before the break, heading in a cross at the far post.
City manager Paul Tisdale made two changes to the starting XI, as Graham Cummins and Christian Ribeiro were named as subs. Clinton...
Exeter City and Oxford United shared the spoils with a 2-2 draw at the Kassam Stadium in Sky Bet League 2.

It looked like the Grecians would travel back to Devon with all three points when Alex Nicholls applied the finishing touch on a set-piece, but U’s sub James Roberts struck minutes later in injury time to square things up again...
Exeter City and Newport County AFC played out an entertaining 2-2 draw at Rodney Parade.
In truth it could have been better for the Grecians, who were two goals to the good at the interval through a Tom Nichols penalty and a corking effort by Graham Cummins.
However the hosts came steaming out of the blocks in the second period and got back on terms through Yan Klukowski and Max Porter.
Both sides had chances for a winner, but neither could quite take them as a draw was the result in South Wales.
