WELL AGED !



Carmi's Thematic Challenge this week is "Well Aged" I decided you couldn't get much more aged than 5000 years old! This is a Bronze Age burial mound on the Isle of Anglesey in Wales. It feels quite weird to stand where people stood to bury their dead all that time ago.



These old garden tools are quite another thing! I love the way their handles have got a gorgeous patina from years of use. And they are just as good today as they were then. And I bet if I used them and looked after them carefully, they would outlast any new tool!

oh now THAT would be interesting to see. I bet you can just feel the ancientness.
