7 years ago I suddenly became unemployed and discovered that being over 50 there were no jobs. So with £400 started making Norfolk Gin in the kitchen. We have 3 sheds now and are still trading successfully thank you. #newstart #unemployment #SmallBusiness #theoriginalnorfolkgin – at Norwich, England

Weaving in Shropshire ... #textiles #Shropshire #britishmade #skills
Sunny, dry days weaving here would be amazing, but this is England, so who knows! . These are the shafts that will control the second of the two warps I'll be using, the finer yarn, the binder warp that keeps all those pesky woollen ground ends in order. #handweaving #textiles

Thatching ... #Skill #Craft #Labour
Just getting started on a beautiful, feature packed roof, in the village I grew up in. It was once inhabited by a rural writer named George Ewart Evans, a favourite of mine, so it feels like a real privilege to be working here.
