The New New.




In July, the editorial staff here at Bitsnbobs (me) disappeared into The Archives – a wonderful place of ancient lore and mystery where the future never happens and all you have to think about is the rosy glow of what once was.

Whilst we were there (August) we broke through into a hitherto unknown subterranean tunnel that has since been renamed The Passage of Lists and the month of September, here on the blog was covered with lists.

At the end of the month (and at the end of the passage) we had a quick glimpse of The Turbulent Chambers – a distant annexe of The Archives, which for now remains under a quarantine order but from where we were able to grab a handful of documents that constituted The Ramblings of September.

Which brings us to October!!

And a new me!

It's the best month of the year no? Crispy morns, blue skies, pomegranates in the market and my mum’s birthday.

Now the astute among you will have realised that al this talk of archives, lists and ramblings is really about closing down and hiding away, trying to package everything into a neat list to avoid scrutiny and then wandering around in a fairly abstract way along paths and byways that inevitably lead back to where i was three months ago - which is here.

It is also clearly about moving out of the house into the garden and now, reluctantly swapping open air for closed bricks, and moving back.

Reinvention and restoration.

But it’s a new me!!

Which is – in fact - the old me with a clean pair of socks.

With no idea what to say….
