Seems like I only wrote four days in April. Just didn’t feel like it, or want to. I did think about a reboot of my main site blog with some other new SSG, maybe that bash one but I didn’t do anything

I’ve been watching a lot of videos on rock tumbling…I really want a rock tumbler now. I keep thinking that I’d like to collect some rocks from my walks and then polish them up in the tumbler. The process reminds me of film development, except it’s weeks/months vs. minutes. I think the kids would like it, although the 7 days of tumbling per stage might be less interesting for them. Anyway, there’s a disappointingly few good tumblers available in the UK, and the decent stuff is in the US. Or maybe it’s a more popular hobby in the US and everyone online is US based. I’m sure there must be some in Europe - although thanks to brexit that won’t help that much - so I’m waiting for a quote on one of these setup for 240V.

Today’s walk had a lot of lovely looking red rocks - I don’t know what they are but I’m sure I could’ve found out. I didn’t take them home but next time I’d like to.
