Number 30 for 2022 Weekly Alphabet Challenge : Dirty
This is where I dunk the pots and planters and where i rinse my hands when potting stuff.
It's not truly dirty as I don't consider soil and potting compost to be so, but others might feel differently!
After some grinding I was able to make the bucket heater narrow enough
to fit in all of my grease tanks.
About 8 or 9 pounds mushrooms. Usually takes 1-2 hours to pick a bucket. Price this year was around 12$ a pound.

A collection of early 19th century buckets hangs from the vestry roof at Haughley. These buckets were to be used as a chain to a water source in the event of a fire (thankfully they were probably never used).
Haughley church was my very first stop during my stay in Suffolk, over the next few days of intensive cycling I'd visit over 60 more, but the timing of my arrival this day only allowed an afternoon's ride so I headed up to Stowmarket to explore a few more familiar places to start with (I would have started by revisiting Stowmarket church but it was out of bounds to me once I picked up my hire bike at the station owing to the railway line being blocked for maintenance, and the bike far too heavy to lug back over the footbridge!).
I'd last been to Haughley with my aunt who lives locally and often plays the organ here (along with many other local churches), she'd given me a demonstration on the organ here on my previous flying visit here ten years ago (so I planned to pay her a surprise visit following a few stops en route). However I'd known of this place before from childhood visits to the area, and at the time this church used to weirdly pop into my head during mass (during the line 'May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands, for the praise and glory of his name, for our good and the good of all his church', only I'd hear the last bit in my head as "for our good and the good of Haughley's church", so I reckoned it must be a very special place! ;-)
The church is dedicated to the Assumption of Mary, an unusual dedication today but not originally so. It is a handsome edifice situated in the western part of this most attractive village and its south west tower also serves as the porch. Alarm bells went off when I realised something was going on inside the church so I imagined this might be a very short visit, but it was actually their flower festival so visitors were warmly welcomed. Everything looked very festive inside and pleasant music was playing, the only down side being the fine medieval font I remembered admiring on my previous trip was completely concealed from view by one of the displays (so I'll have to upload one of my poor quality older shots of it).
The interior has experienced significant 19th century restoration but it hasn't been spoiled by it, the 15th century carved roofs are highly attractive (however restored, the carved angels in the south aisle are Victorian replacements for the lost originals) and the Victorian glass is confined to the south aisle, otherwise the windows are plain and the interior remains quite bright. The chancel has a boarded wooden tunnel-vault which must enhance acoustics for the choir.
I've found Haughley church open on both visits, though I believe this hasn't always been the case and a keyholder should be listed for anyone who finds it locked.
My person favorite of the brush bucket pictures. I just had to take pictures of something other than people!!

I picked up this delicious wool yarn by Debbie Bliss while at Stitches last weekend. Its called SoHo and is in vibrant colors of purple, pink and a nice varigated mix. The yarn is a thick/thin weight between worsted and heavy worsted. I love it... by far my favorite yarn to have my hands in so far!
I've just cast on the bottom yesterday. I'm a bit under the weather at the moment so I'm getting more "sit still" time that usual, so I've used that to knit a good bit. I think this method of building a circle is just too cool!
