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!

Robyn-the-robin would prefer that I didn't shove a camera in her face whilst she's busy enjoying today's third breakfast. I can see her point, actually.

Just to prove that there was knitting whilst we walked yesterday. (Let's not talk about the fact that I've had to rip this jumper back and begin again.)

No, Robyn-the-robin, you mustn't follow me indoors. Wild birds don't belong in the house. (Don't worry: after this pic was taken, she stood on the sofa for a minute and then flew back outside.) ...

NEWSFLASH! I SAW ROBYN'S TWO BABIES! Pic 1: Robyn has breakfast. Pics 2&3: She brings her babies down. They're (wisely) very wary, so I had to leave a motion-activated camera outside in order to have a look. ❤️

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. .

Erm, excuse me young lady, but you know you're not supposed to come into the house. Her latest trick is to come in and stand on the tub of mealworms whilst we're having a meal, staying there until someone feels guilty enough to get up and feed her.

Breakfast time here at Twisted Towers. THANK YOU so so so much for every single one of your kind, warm-hearted, comments and DMs in response to my last post. They were a huge comfort, but also I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by so much love! I'm not sure how to reply to so many, but let me at least begin with this post.

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!

What I didn't know was that my friend Jo has been secretly making an absolutely perfect model of Robyn-the-robin. Look what appeared on my doorstep yesterday! ❤️ I can only imagine how many hours must have gone in to all that embroidery. (Jo did admit that she has calluses on her hands as a result!) It's perfect and beautiful and I will treasure it forever. But I mustn't let the real Robyn catch sight of it!

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.

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.
