In between the showers, there were some lovely clouds at #Durotriges26 this afternoon.
After I managed to total my iPhone 15 in yesterday's hailstorm, normal service has now been resumed with what has now been christened "dig phone", my old iPhone SE. Here's the finished pit. Nothing in it, except an animal's femur bone deposited at one end, under some flints. #Durotriges26.
The absolute absence of political leadership against the far right in Britain is genuinely shocking, and will make things worse
The only politician I heard really speaking out - and leading - in last 24 hours was independent councillor in Belfast
It should surprise no-one that Protestant groups in NI align with the wider far-right in the U.K. to weaponise the violent knife attack in Belfast.

It seems obvious but needs saying that most of Labour's core vote is fundamentally opposed to the far right. Failing to fight back against it rioting on Britain's streets will leave many of those supporters wondering what the point of having a Labour government is.
Good finds always appear right at the end of the day.
This has been reburied to protect it from tomorrow's rain. I'll just have to wait to lift this (fancy) piece of Black-burnished ware. #Durotriges26
