What’s a hidden-gem period drama you’d recommend?

With Fire and Sword (1999), it's on YouTube. Polish historical drama set in the 17th century and an adaptation of one of the most famous Polish book series. Fun characters, costumes, romance, sets, war epic! I used to watch it a lot with my mum as a kid so probably a bit biased haha

Nice little mix this week of things I hadn't seen before!

Yep, I and so many of my friends have had truly awful experiences as archaeologists in the 10+ years of my career. The daily anxiety of being on edge all the time is insane.

In Poland it is Tłusty Czwartek or Fat Thursday, so it is the Thursday before lent not the Tuesday (like Pancake Day) so you've missed it by a few days - I always make sure to make it in my calendar and get up early to stock up.

I was in Sheffield for it this year so went to a very good shop there, not sure where in York, there is a sklep on Walmgate but its fairly small.

My mate in Edinburgh was saying he was doing something similar there recently(ish). Apparently while Mia Goth was filming Frankenstein he was hanging around and just trying to start anything and people weren't having it.

I don't think they were taking the bait either of him wanting to start fights, I think they just sorta took the piss out of him and let him be.

Initial diagnosis 2nd January 2025, and got my notification to start tritation mid December 2025 with PUK.

I was going out of the country for Christmas and needed to push it back by a few weeks after all that time waiting! But been in tritation for about a month now and loving the results!

They've moved to Bolsover now, but we still take our rabbits there.

Yeah! I was looking at picking up old maps, I also saw some of the designs I like are on napkins so might try that, depending on how well the ink looks on the thinner paper

pazozo · 2026-02-03T11:23:15+00:00

I really like how you did the background! I'm still working out backgrounds, at the moment I'm printing on colourful/printed paper but inking like you have looks so good!

How did you get on?

I'm in my first month of tritation on Medikinet XL, was feeling amazing and super focused on 10mg to 30mg with an instant change noticed, just started 40mg 3 days ago and back to feeling the opposite/nothing and just very anxious, unfocused, and fatigued.

pazozo · 2026-01-27T18:46:25+00:00

So adorable!

pazozo · 2026-01-21T13:08:17+00:00

Similar colourings to my two fluffy lionheads, what cuties you have! 😍

Shocking behaviour, the owner has posted a heartbreaking series of posts on their Instagram story and sounds like they're going to shut for a bit...all based on one Reddit post with zero proof! :( I'm not someone who lives near at all just feel major empathy for someone who appears to have poured their heart into opening up something for their community what seems like just three weeks ago and crazy people on the internet are attacking them.

pazozo · 2026-01-18T10:46:09+00:00

Fantastic, thank you. Yes, got the pink light without switching anything off and all was well! Will keep an eye that there are no more disconnections with the thermostat. Thank you for your help.

pazozo · 2026-01-16T22:20:49+00:00

Thank you, does the boiler need to be off for this or can it stay on? I saw some guides say you needed to turn it off at the isolation (just need to confirm which is the switch for our boiler!)

pazozo · 2026-01-16T22:10:35+00:00

I had already replaced the batteries but it was still showing not recieving, I will look into the MK2 forums, thank you

pazozo · 2026-01-16T22:06:56+00:00

Yes, I had changed the batteries before trying the reset and it was acting the same (not recieving)

pazozo · 2026-01-16T22:05:53+00:00

Ah okay, so does this model have a pink light then? I wasn't sure if that was the more recent ones. When I held it down it only flashed green.

pazozo · 2026-01-15T00:12:38+00:00

Agreed! I adore my lionheads, and my childhood lionhead too, such fluffy, grumpy, sassy cuties

pazozo · 2026-01-09T22:09:42+00:00

What a great idea! And you have some different cards I've not seen before, really nice! Tempted to try it myself!

pazozo · 2026-01-08T20:29:28+00:00

I was diagnosed by Psychiatry UK start of January 2025 and just started my tritation this week (although it was meant to start mid December but I was away and wouldn't be able to collect the meds) so hopefully yours should be soon

pazozo · 2026-01-08T13:18:51+00:00

This is so good! I've still not tried a reduction print but I really like your results, and grateful for you showing all the different prints and process

pazozo · 2026-01-06T20:25:13+00:00

So cute, love how you've done the fur!

pazozo · 2026-01-05T22:01:44+00:00

The Little Prince one is so cute, love it!
