Work in progress: preparing mohair locks for wigs.
1. Dividing mohair in locks & grading by length.
2. Combing underhair out.
3. Combed locks.
4. Mohair locks in a weft ready for dyeing.
I prefer to buy raw hair & work on it by my own, because this way I completely control the process and the quality of ready locks.
I don't use wefts in wigs (sewing of 'roots' is too thick and coarse), I make them only for comfortable dyeing, and cut the locks off during wig making.
40145 'East Lancashire Railway' passes Combs with a Birmingham International to Buxton railtour on the 15th September 2007.
Although the loco looks good in this livery, to stir my memory, a 40 would need to be in battered BR blue (or BR green with 40122 and 40106) as that is how I remember them. However, the noise this thing was making as it passed me at little more than walking pace on full power certainly did stir the memories, and nearly caused a wet patch if I'm honest!
Venus' Comb (Scandix pecten-veneris ), a non-native plant in the Carrot or Parsley family (Apiaceae). Depicted here are the unusual-looking fruit of these widespread wildflowers, whence their common name is derived.
Irediparra gallinacea
Family: Jacanidae
Order: Charadriiformes
This species can be found in North east Australia and also a number of other south East Asian countries. Its habitat is freshwater wetlands and lakes that have floating vegetation such as lilies. These surface plants provide a surface for the bird to stride over.
The comb of the Jacana is pink during breeding season and more orange at other times.
This individual has the right foot tucked up behind the wing.

A still photo doesn't do justice to the light show this creature puts on. It's too bad I couldn't keep it in focus.
We enjoyed seeing the Comb-crested Jacana or Lotus birds walking on the Lotus leaves on the South Alligator River, Kakadu.
When the chick gets tired or scared, it pushes under the father's wing and can check on the surroundings by putting its head out.

Combs church wasn't open on the Wednesday that I visited. There was a phone number listed, but I was a bit pushed for time and was keen to get to Badley, which I hadn't visited before. So I had to make do. Combs sits on its own in fields south of Stowmarket. The church is quite large, and the setting is enjoyable, on a slight rise backed by trees. The tower is Decorated, as is the chancel. The rest of the church is Perpendicular.
Faa combs made of strips of turtleshell with upper part interlaced with bands of red and yellow vegetable fibre.
