Ring mystery

Several years ago, I turned up a rather nice ring at the tip; dark goldish in colour, engraved around the outside, and inscribed with a Spanish/Portuguese name around the inside  - Eufemia Bonilla.  It has been cut, and not repaired, so could have come from someone deceased possibly.When I found it, I did look on the net, but could find little to help me.  The ring re-surfaced today in a tidy up, so I've been on FB (which I wasn;t on back then, or even it might not have existed), found someone in Spain with the exact name, and havesent her a message all about it. Wouldn't it be wonderful to re-unite the ring with the family?  Will let you  know what happens.

Gimme a break..............

My little bit of Shetland

If I can't get to Shetland quite yet, there are a lot of things I can be getting on with meantime. Yes, a bit of whimsy perhaps, but good and useful fun, and not out of place in the way I live. I am determined to get Shetland hens and breed from them, likewise Shetland ducks. You never know, one day I might have room for ponies,  cattle and sheep too, all distinctive Shetland breeds thereof. I grow Shetland Black potatoes and am starting off Shetland Kale; I have discovered there are other tatties I can grow too I hope, and will get hold of some bere (barley) and aits (oats); I spin Shetland wool and knit/weave with it; I have dozens of crofting books/Shetland books; next step is to subscribe to the Shetland Times; I have the esate agents all bookmarked too. It's like a working storyboard/wishlist/throw it out to the universe type thing for me - I do what I can in the fields I'm interested in to keep the dreams alive. One day :) Shetland duckling

This must be the place............

Pawlonia

I always wanted a pawlonia since I heard it was very difficult to get them to flower in this country, even in the south of England. Well, red rag to a bull that was !  It's a big tree, and not everyone has room for one,  so I managed to get one reduced from £40 ish down to £10 at a local garden centre; had to have it delivered as it wouldn;t fit in the car. It flowered for the first time last year, andhasmany more flowers this year. Truly stunning, and such a pretty colour.
