This used to be my garden.
I worked hard in it and loved it for sixteen years.
Over those years it provided me with flowers, fruit, vegetables....and buried treasure!
All manner of weird and wonderful bits and pieces emerged from deep in the soil as I dug it over. These are my favourites...
An old Henderson's Relish bottle, a beautifully worn marble, the head of a china duck, and a fascinating tiny headless figure with something in the crook of its arm.
I love the surreal nature of these random bits and pieces, full of intrigue and hidden stories.
As a Sheffield lass, the Henderson's Relish bottle is real treasure!
And the little figure has a very neat behind!
If anyone can shed any light on the origins of this intriguing little doll, or can suggest what it might be holding so carefully in its arm, I'd love to know.
