I think our Ancesters invented the make do and mend idea.
If there's one thing that we all find it's pot mends. All shapes and sizes and you'd be hard pressed to say exactly what was mended.

I always say that all finds are interesting to some extent. They help you build up a picture of life in the area in the past. Also gives you an indication of what you might find in the area. Keep going, you never know.
