Sculpture by Tom Agnew,
Bishop’s Gate Hotel, Derry, Northern Ireland, February 2025
This sculpture was inspired by the St James’s shirt pattern made by McIntyre, Hogg, Marsh & Co, one of Derry’s many shirt manufacturers, in the 1930s.
Now over to all of you. Do come and join us in our Saturday six-word musings.
I’ll admit that many of us openly break the numeric rule and share far more words (all excellent of course!) so the key rule is to have a title of six words – and then create around that the post that you desire! Perhaps in bunches of 6 words if you’re feeling inspired.
To join the challenge, please put a link in your post to the URL of this post. Then come back here and leave us a comment. If you have any problems with linking, just put your own URL into the comment. And do feel free to socialise digitally with the hashtags #SixWordSaturday and #6WS. You’ll find me on Instagram @travel_travel_with_intent and @dsmythphoto

A whimsical piece of art! But that style of shirt is a bit formal for me.

It is certainly formal. And I’m not sure that massive front bib would suit a woman.

Yes, it was a massive industry in Derry, peaking in the 1920s. A huge employer of women too
