Ah well. I guess that is another case of "sounds too good to be true" then...

Agree with you that it comes under the category of "quite hypothetical". If the finds were from a cu...

Stuff going on here.

There's a lot of things going on here in the background, but none of them are spectacular. There's book-keeping to be taken care of (because of, well, tax paperwork being due and such stuff).

In addition, I'm working on the relaunch of the website. It's, well, not coming along too quickly, as these things tend to. At the moment, I am having severe struggles with CSS stuff regarding how the shop page looks... because even though I found what commands should technically fix the problem, I have not found the sweet spot yet where I can actually insert said commands.

Even though I started my internet career back in the days when it was cool to have your own website (I was Team Geocities), and you were coolest if you hand-coded your html for that in a text editor, I've not kept up. Which means that now, with the modern developments of website stuff, I'm sort of only half-literate. I can dabble around in some of the code, I can understand bits and pieces of what CSS and javascript and php codes do, but I cannot write them from zero, and if it gets more complicated, I'm lost. All this means that I can fix smaller issues and tweak things, but it's a bit hit-and-miss. Mind you, what I do know is still immensely helpful in 80% of all my use-cases, but when it comes to setting up or adjusting basic layouts like now... I'm sort of at my limits. (Any CSS wizards willing to have a look?)

In other news, as soon as my current book-keeping and other urgent stuff are off my desk, it will be the Return To The Spinning Machine - the last batch of yarn for the last piece to be woven for the Egtved project is due to be spun. And then, finally, there's also the rings on the skirt to be done... where I think I have a good method now (which may or may not be a possible method for how it was originally made), but it needs a little bit of fine-tuning and practising before it can start in earnest.

So. Lots of things, and none of them spectacular... but more than enough to keep me more than busy.
