Had I had the courage to photograph the lion, I would have retained it in my iPhotos from which I deleted all the pictures in
During the rest of the day I finished reading ‘Anglo-Saxon England’ and scanned the pictures for my review which I have begun drafting.
This evening we repeated our baked gammon meal with fresh vegetables. Jackie began another bottle of the rosé and I drank more of the merlot.
There is something arresting about that Anglo-Saxon helmet.
Thank you very much, Liz
A hauntingly impressive helmet, Derrick
Thank you very much, Ivor
Something kinda’ stunning, yet scary about that helmet.

(((HUGS)))
I agree with the others about the helmet. It seems alive to me.
Thank you very much, Merril
Scrumping – we used to call it apple kipping.
Thanks very much, Sue
I got a few chuckles reading Oiling the Lion, though I’m sorry to hear you still have pain in your shoulder. The helmet is haunting.
Thank you so much, Eugi
You’re welcome, Derrick.
You have had some interesting adventures, Derrick!
Thank you very much, Lavinia. It has often been fun

Thanks very much, Sheree. I have occasionally received a similar message
I received the same message on each of your posts but I’ve no idea why. Fortunately, I was able to access and read them.
Well done
