Big Buckle

While it's been too hot to venture outside I've been doing a lot of tidying up, sorting out magazines to chuck, books to pass on and items to find new homes for. I have no idea where this big buckle came from. The tongue is a bit rusty, but the rest appears to be made of brass. Now I wonder what its story is and where it came from.

Vegetable Cover Up.

With a temperature of 43C predicted for today, we decided to cover up as many of our precious vegetables as we could to protect them from being fried to a crisp in the sun.

With old sheets and pieces of fabric bought for future dyeing exercises we covered up most of the more sensitive plants. Hopefully it will be worthwhile and the vegetables can be saved!
