So, a thing happened. Yesterday, I found this small metal disk whilst digging the garden. Clearly old, a little strange. Thanks to a contact from a helpful friend, I emailed the Finds Officer at our local archaeology service. Didn't expect a speedy response, but I guess a lot of his usual work is on hold. Here's what he said: My first impression is that you have a Medieval to Post Medieval (AD 1200 - 1800) lead token. The date range on these is huge because we get lots of them and they vary a huge amount in form! They can be used for lots of different purposes, as gaming counters, weights, trade tokens and more.
.
Not bad for an afternoon's gardening!

After work (for me and the Stoic Spouse) and a shameful amount of screen-time (the twinnage), I took both boys up to the Ridgeway (truly ancient trail that passes nearby here) so they could run around, or rather gallop along pretending to be horses. No yarn in this picture, because I was feeling so guilty about neglecting the boys all day that I FORGOT TO BRING MY KNITTING when we left the house!

The (skirt) patient is undergoing major surgery to replace its middle section, but don't worry, the surgeon has been anaesthetised with wine, so she won't feel a thing. 😁

In the autumn, one of the twinnage (aged 9) asked whether we could plant some conkers and grow a horse chestnut tree in the middle of the lawn. Look what's just germinated! Cue delighted child! If you saw the size of our garden, you'd understand why I'm really keen to plant these out SOMEWHERE ELSE when the time comes.

I think Robyn might be sulking because I didn't come out the second she appeared at the window. So now I'm sitting out here with her breakfast and she's elsewhere.

A friend and I are making nettle yarn, and one of the stages is to 'bake' the nettle stems for a few hours. Given this quantity of nettles, I would have needed to keep the oven on for a week! So here's my solution. It's 32°C out there today, and if I leave the car in the sun, I reckon it'll get more than hot enough. Fingers crossed.

Hospital waiting room knitting, pic 2 in a series of 7647568. 😁 Except today the waiting room is my car because of covid. But I have knitting and green tea, so I'll be FINE here for at least... oh maybe 2 days or so? Happy Friday, people! CHECK YOUR BOOBS (although maybe not right this minute if you're in a meeting at work).

Hospital waiting room sock knitting. Picture one in a series of 7647568 photos. 😉 (Not really! Please don't unfollow!) Just turning the heel. But wowzers, that hurt today. Soft and comforting yarn is by the fabulous @burrow_and_soar. Just what the doctor ordered. 😊

Quick reminder, I'm keeping a garden photo-diary @the.twisted.garden. Feel free to come and see blooms, bugs, and... I can't think of a synonym for vegetables that begins with 'b', but the produce is there too. (Also, my friend Selma is doing the same but better at @eclectichomelife.garden.) Tomorrow I might film some underwater footage of the sticklebacks nest-building. Or I might not, depending on how the homeschooling and general twinnage-management is going. .

Today I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I'm fine, and looking on the bright side, I now have the perfect excuse to lounge on the sofa and knit even more than usual for the next few months. 😁 Normal silliness and yarniness will continue both here and on the blog, because that's just how I roll. Also, DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO CROCHET A BREAST TUMOUR?! I mean, viruses look kinda cute and quirky under the microscope, but breast cancers are just BLOBS. So... I will not be releasing a pattern for this rather rubbish piece of crochet.

Robyn is being what the twinnage would describe as 'skittish' at the moment. I suspect that now her babes have fledged, she's less desperate for food from any source. It's so very good to see her and know that she's safe, however.
