And again....

 If you've read  Book 3, A Throw of the Stone thr following might ring a bell...

Thin, bacteria-coated fibers could lead to self-healing concrete that fills in its own cracks

Some say there are two types of concrete—cracked and on the brink of cracking. But what if when concrete cracked, it could heal itself?

The Post before Last was about our being ahead of our time.....

 Not quite sure it works in this case (see Return of the Stone; Book 2 of the Stone Summons series, available widely on the Internet) because while the Nobel Prize was awarded for almost exactly what is described below, we had gone into the future to see and hear about it.  Weird!

Researchers found 37 mine sites in Australia that could be converted into renewable energy storage

The world is rapidly moving towards a renewable energy future. To support the transition, we must prepare backup energy supplies for times when solar panels and wind turbines are not producing enough electricity.

I found my first Mermaid's Purse!

 I found loads actually, and I had seen them before but thought they were bits of mobile phones or other plastic.



So I looked it up online and found this site, https://marinedimensions.ie/what-is-a-mermaid-purse/ and I reported my finds and had a response as below:
I can see from your photos that you found 2 eggcases from the Thornback Ray (Raja clavata), .......... and 2 Spotted Ray eggcases (Raja montagui).

The Spotted Ray cases are the ones that are smooth along the sides, and the Thornbacks have a thin layer along the sides.

The site gives you links to report your finds, depending on country etc. So come on, let's see if you can find Greek, or Australian ones, Sasha, you will have to make a special beach trip, sorry.

We've always been ahead of our time - (when we weren't behind of course, changing things for the better)

 And yet again just as I told you! (see below)

Our latest adventures!

Believe it or not, this book, chronicling our adventures, is a  definitive account of Atlantis, wrapped up in a tale of discovery, friendship, adventure, time-travel, fantasy and faraway places in space and time, past and present.

We would love you to join us, meeting Natalya from Return of the Stone properly, reading about our journeys in time, on Kindle or in a paperback.  This is the last in The Stone Summons series, or trilogy, as it turned out to be.

Here's mine - all one stone!

Read about the face recognition thing in a book I was reading on advertising (I'm doing Sociology!)

Sorry about the sand.  I didn't realise we were photographing them in situ.  When you two didn't mention it, I forgot, and he was just amongst my other souvenirs, then I had to find some sand to take his photograph, so you would think it was Malaysia, but I can see you can tell the difference, sorry. L

Think he looks like a pig here


Quite different this way up and round


And here like a puppy

And this is mine!

 With his cap on!

παρα εἴδωλον - could I just say, from the Greek, naturally!
