So I hope you’ve had a great Easter Sunday whatever you beliefs.  For me I’ve been searching for slag (BTW don’t try google slag unless you are prepared to be depressed – for some reason there is a whole section called British Slag, I’ll leave that to your own imagination!)  However, my search has been far more elusive – looking for the byproduct of medieval iron making in south east Leicestershire.  It is a hard and pointless slog at times and I can only so much I can take before I my head explodes. Fortunately  I have had some interesting results and I have certainly expanded my knowledge but in the end I just had to make a quick drawing to release the steam.

We are the youth of today.
