  1. A Foggy & soggy Sunday

    After a busy couple of days socialising we took a much needed waltz down to the river bank. The heavy fog didn’t lift all day, so we felt strangely cocooned from reality, with just the Rooks yelling in the trees and the beeps from the machines to accompany us! This is the same area we did last...

  11. Button ID help

    Hoping someone here can identify this button. Apparently it was important enough to someone that they attached a chain to it. Looks like it could be a harp. Found in New York.
