Rejuvenating little walk on the Yorkshire Wolds Way near Welton today. Raikes' mausoleum, built 1818, was sealed up in the 1960's after it was desecrated and a skull stolen. The skull was found near the Humber estuary. #eastyorkshire #humber #trees

I've started repacking the religious objects in the River Wear Collection. Here's a medieval lead ampulla (c. 13th-15th century) with scallop shell design. It would have held holy water, a souvenir bought by a pilgrim visiting Durham. stories.durham.ac.uk/riverwear

My first thought: "I need that cat." 👀 My second thought: "What's the best collection of Algernon Blackwood's works that's available on ebay right now?"

Re-watched 'Basic Instinct', it'd been a while (20 years?). So, so good. Very jealous of Catherine Tremmel's literary career and cliff-side villa. I forgot Assistant Director Skinner is in it. Best and worst knitted fits:

I've got an urge to visit the edgelands of Hartlepool this week. Any tips? I want beautifully desolate landscapes and an unnerving low hum. Where's best to park up and have a wander? #edgelands #psychogeography #drift

A pylon's crackle and hum made me look up and snap a photo. The branches and lines created ideal contrast and definition for my first experiments with gel printing. More experiments to follow!
