Have you ever been to a ship graveyard? ⛴️

Last Friday I walked to Purton Ships Graveyard on the River Severn, where old vessels have been deliberately beached and allowed to silt up, to help fight shore erosion.

Here’s a bit of sewing I’ve recently finished. I’ve counted each thread I’ve sewn over, in the centuries-old tradition of blackwork (but in red). It’s slow, meditative work, which suits me very well.

Another classic Time Team moment, when the archaeologists found a very old poo

Merry be the May!

This morning I got up early to watch Boss Morris dance in the sunrise on Rodborough Common in Stroud. How did you welcome in the May?

It was so interesting to meet these Rag and Bone men!

Folk tradition meets MOT centre. I popped into Libby Bovey’s small but brilliant exhibition in Bristol this week. If you’re into that sort of thing it’s well worth a look. On until 24th at BS1 6TJ.

Help: I’ve been using Mastodon for a few months now and I still don’t get servers/instances. Please explain to me.

I don’t understand how instance rules would affect what I see if I can follow anyone anyway.

⚡️ Am I meant to be interacting more with people who are on my instance? (I’m not and I have no idea how to.)

⚡️ Is my chosen instance affecting my ability to find community?

⚡️ What tangible day-to-day impact does my server choice have?

I’m glad I bought those shorts and sunglasses yesterday. (That photo is the sky.) ☁️

It's been hilarious to see the usual suspects on the right in the #UK getting hugely worked up over the decision to return the Brecon Beacons national park to its traditional Welsh language name. As a counterpart, please watch this deeply moving and educational tribute to Bannau Brycheiniog from #MichaelSheen and Owen Sheers. This is a hugely important #rewilding project: kudos to all involved.
