Michele's 2008 UK Diary

Sometimes the gods smile on you and yesterday was such a day. The week had alternating days of Museums and out of the way meanderings in search of unusual jewellery materials. The weekend was reserved for the markets. There we found a beautiful example of a ring I had been seeking. A Victorian sentimentality where the first letter of each stone reads out the word DEAREST. Kevin met a collector of unusual pocket knives who was about to sell his collection much to Kevin's delight. We then met a couple who delighted in referring to us as the Colonials and by chance spotted their walking cane with a mineralogists hammer for its handle, just perfect. To top it all off we met a dealer in antiquities with a fine collection of Neolithic, early kingdom Egyptian and Roman artefacts and beads. What a day!!!.
