Wow, this intricate net bag is an extraordinary survival from ancient Egypt 3,600 years ago! Made from linen string, it was used to suspend the ceramic flask from a wooden carrying pole. Excavated at Qurna, near Thebes, in 1908. National Museum of Scotland 📷 by me

There is a death of sorts in the moments after being diagnosed with cancer. The self you were before is torn and blasted with the suddenness of a dozen mines, the heavy sword of Damocles is roped and hung, your own thin ghost steps forward from the shadows. It feels like being
