@LondonMudlark Almost certainly a pilgrim or a secular badge but tantalisingly incomplete.

@LondonMudlark It's not like any purse frame that I have seen, not that that means anything. Are those rivets in the 'horns'? If so, it must have been attached to something.

@Lucy_Lapwing Three redpolls on the feeder and in the apple tree! I've never seen these before and they are gorgeous.

@ArcDurham @trowelblazers Very sad to read this. Brenda was such a delightful and humble person.

@johnevigar Scabbard chape!

@jayblades_ @theroyalfamily I loved the show and I do hope our politicians were watching it!!

[Alison Goodall @argoodall652]

@tudor_historian @peterneil62 York for one.

@katemacrae My squirrels soon learnt to unclip the lid on a similar feeder so it's now encased in a second cage.

@johnevigar 7=septem, ie September 17th.

@richardhosgood @sueellendarling @wessexarch @mod_dio Drawing also makes you look more closely and discover and highlight details that the camera may overlook. It also helps to imprint the object in ones memory. I have always sketched my objects.

@katemacrae @HBWildBirdCare Interesting to see if it really foils the squirrels. Squirrels have quickly got into every squirrel-proof feeder that I have tried.

@pittsmike RIP Mike. I remember him as a student in Cardiff where he ran Theatre in Transit (in a Ford Transit van).

@DrNWillburger Brilliant! Of course, that explains #stonehenge too 🤣!

[Alison Goodall @argoodall652]

@mrjamesmayhew Monteverdi's 'Orfeo' or Handel's 'Acis & Galatea'. How can you make those two sublime works into a 'thing'?

[Alison Goodall @argoodall652]

@LondonMudlark I love the pins but they do remind me of the that '60s/70s party favourite - cheese & pineapple on cocktail sticks, stuck in a 1/2 grapefruit.

@allantadams @Serlianna @YorksVernacular @yorkcivictrust @yorkwalls Very sad that it is now closed. It was such an institution in York.

@JonathanFoyle In my day it was: dig it up, bag it up, write it up. I'd like to think it still is.

[Alison Goodall @argoodall652]

@waitrose It looks ridiculously complex. I don't want to have to get my phone out at the checkout. And as I only shop once every 3 wks, I will only be able to use 1 week's worth of vouchers for 3 weeks' worth of shopping. Unfair!

[Alison Goodall @argoodall652]

@katemacrae This was in my garden the year before last. Terrible photo!

[Alison Goodall @argoodall652]

@TheMontyDon I can't believe it's nearly over already😢. I could watch these programmes forever! Something healing in a crazy world.
