Found...

My big success of the day was during holiday task of clean the front room.

I thought for sure I'd lost my Clan Skates bunnet. It's a lovely knitted celtic design Shetland wool beanie. One of the first they sold apparently.

Anyway, it disappeared and missed the winter in which it would have been very useful and given its history of dropping out of my back pocket, I thought it was gone for good.

Turned up behind the wool drawers.

Result.

We headed over to GrannieCs gaff in the afternoon to deliver belated birthday gifts and the two of them were exporting the back garden hill. She apparently needed protection, hence the gloves.
