or dried out potato peeling?
Usksider
Pro I was just thinking I ought to clean my boots... you must've been listening in!
Dead plant leaves tied with a bag tie!! Random or what?
Usksider
Pro Random thoughts often work best here I find...
oh, garden twine thats been left out in the sun too long and faded?
Usksider
Pro That reminds me, I must buy some more....
Munzly
Pro Something to do with bamboo?
Usksider

Pro Leaves that are dying back.... crocus? Narcissus? 
Usksider
Pro A lady of the earth....
tylluanpenry
Pro You're right - I usually look as though I've been digging somewhere in a dark corner of the garden....
Usksider
Pro That wasn't quite what I had in mind...
Alicia3000
Old ribbon possibly.
Usksider
Pro Good one... I'm not saying it's right, but old ribbon does go like that doesn't it?
Alicia3000
I was also thinking that it could be ribbon of a ballet shoe or something.
Usksider
Pro Ah ha... now we're getting quite specific...
Munzly
Pro Grytpype Thynne of the Goon Show would classify it as "Dried leatherong," but I've no idea what that is.
Usksider
Pro I always loved the Goons...
Munzly
Pro You know they're being repeated on BBC7 Radio at present?
Although I have them all in mp3 format, if you ever want a copy of a fav. episode. (For a while the BBC had lost them, but there were people who preserved them, then when they started appearing on the internet the BBC was able to get most of them back. I got mine before the BBC had even thought of recovering them, hee! hee!)
Usksider
Pro I have some on vinyl and some on tape... I guess I really ought to modernise...
Munzly
Pro No need for that, if you're happy with what you've got - the vinyl should be better quality than the mp3s in any case - don't know about the tape - nasty stuff.
Usksider
Pro Yeah the tapes are a bit naff... the vinyl disks are good though.
la_spice

dry grass, a cricket ball and an apple?

It looks like those tendril things that come off a cheese plant. But I'm guessing too that EllieGant is right, specially with the '57' theme.
Usksider
Pro Aerial roots... yes, I can see that.
good lordi, I have no idea.
Guess number one: a string of some type of pasta.
