It’s been six weeks since the loss of Elgar and Maggie decides that Ed needs to re-engage with the world. Whilst he declines her offer to attend a weekend of ‘yarning and darning’ at a festival in Hebden Bridge, his interest is piqued when Maggie introduces him to the delights of old pallets. Thus, he decides to dust off his woodworking skills and enters the growing world of making items with pallet wood. Ping might have even found a writing opportunity related to Ed’s new interest but he wonders if this could be the start of a whole new career.
