Park sherds - lost

[squirmelia]

A butterfly landed on a feather. A little egret flew away. The crows cawed loudly. And me? I was asked if I'd lost something.

I hadn't, of course, I was looking for sherds. Today's finds:



Last time I looked there, I found my first piece of pipe! I also found a sherd with "Maddock" on it, and I found out that John Maddock was a Stoke-on-Trent potter who started in 1830, and John Maddock & Sons continued until 1980.



Some more sherds, mostly blue and white:

I'm often asked if I've lost something (no, but I did find some things, lol).

I said "no", but then they joked, "was it something expensive?"

I used to get asked if I was lost a lot while playing Ingress and I'd try to explain I was playing a game.

I was once asked if I was lost while standing next to an A-road and looking at a paper Ordnance Survey map, lol. I was so suprised I actually responded, "No, I have a map and that's the main road."

Oh dear! I think people assume you're lost if you're looking at a map.
