If anyone has been following the progress of our cataloguing, you might like to know that today, we reached another milestone: 4000 records have now been enhanced! Out of interest, the 4000th record was one of a small collection of materials and tools used in fishing fly tying. Fly tying is, I must admit, a topic that until about an hour ago, I knew absolutely nothing about. Whilst cataloguing, we’re learning a lot about the collection, so we’ll continue to blog about certain objects or collections that we each find particularly interesting. For me, rather inexplicably, this has been wagons and wheelwrighting. Expect a post in the near future…
