From Bronze Age Wales, the spectacular Mold Cape! 🤩

An incredible ancient feat of sheet-goldworking, beaten from a single gold ingot some 3,600 years ago!

The extraordinary embossed decoration is said to mimic strings of beads.

My photo shows the ‘Mold Cape’ on an upright metal stand inside a British Museum display case. It is a Bronze Age object made of thin hammered gold. The sheet gold is curved and looks like a stiff, rounded poncho. The surface is densely decorated with rows of repeating patterns made of circular bosses and lozenges, which run horizontally around the cape. These are thought to imitate strings of beads. The gold is a deep, warm colour which shines in the display lighting. Cracks and repaired sections are visible. The Mold Cape would be worn over the chest and shoulders. Arm movement would be restricted due to the rigidity of the gold. This amazing artefact was discovered in 1833 by workmen digging for stone in a burial mound at Bryn yr Ellyllon, (Hill of the Goblins) near Mold in Flintshire.

Week 7 of waiting for my replacement battery from Tefal to be sent after a safety recall. Not good enough. Was promised 3-4 weeks. Anyone else affected by this too? #Tefal #BatteryRecall

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck?

It's the Pope in 1982.
Exactly what it says on the label: The Pope in 1982. He's wearing a black hat, dark RayBans, and looks like he's a member of the Blues Brothers.

You wanted an isolated Cornish boulder shaped like a dog's head? Of course.. 😊🐶

Rejoining Eramsus+ would be a vital step in retaining Britain’s standing in the world and upholding the world renown of our universities. This cultural exchange was essential for cooperation in an increasingly interconnected world. It's time to restore our membership.

Sending best wishes for a speedy recovery to Oscar. I imagine he will probably retire now (given what he has said in the past) 🙁 - www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

And that is it. All over. Six goals and a clean sheet. Sam played a full 90 minutes and Lauren came on. We had Naomi playing too. Good times, good times. Well done, girls!

On #ArmisticeDay, we pause to remember and honour the sacrifice of those who gave their lives to defend our nation, our freedom and our democracy.

We will remember them.
