Day 54 and 1533 lost gloves. In the year 1533 the Statute in Restraint of Appeals in England is given royal assent declaring the king to be the supreme sovereign and forbidding judicial appeals to the papacy. Hard to imagine leaders today behaving in such a way to avoid scrutiny #glovewatch

Day 49 and 1383 Lost Gloves. The year 1383 saw the completion of the original inner courtyard of Farleigh Hungerford Castle in Somersetshire, England. The builders were already working down the road so the price was reasonable. Have a good Monday all #glovewatch

Day 45 and it’s 1266 lost gloves. It’s a slow season but there’s nothing much Glovewatch players can do. The only way to up the numbers is to encourage others to start spotting so help spread the word as we enter the final 16 days #glovewatch

For those wondering what #Glovewatch is. The idea is to photograph as many lost single gloves from anywhere in the world seen during the ‘Glovewatch Season’. New season is from 1st Dec 2025 to 31st Jan 2026. You participate by posting photos here. No single use gloves and only gloves seen in season

020

Glovewatch - the lost gloves of Seething @glovewatch.bsky.social · 02/02/2025

Day 62 and the final total for the 2024-25 Season is 1767 lost gloves. This is the fourth best total in the 11 seasons of Glovewatch.

Glovewatch - the lost gloves of Seething @glovewatch.bsky.social · 01/02/2025

Glovewatch 24-25 is over. As with previous seasons you have today to post any gloves you captured between the 1st December and 31st January but forgot to post before we declare the total tomorrow. So make sure you check any omissions and thank you for taking part in the madness

Day 60 and a total of 1687 lost gloves. Just two days of the season left so happy hunting. There will be no daily totals now as we maintain that frisson of surprise around what our finishing total will be. Enjoy your day #glovewatch #singleglove #lostglove #lonelyglove

Glovewatch - the lost gloves of Seething @glovewatch.bsky.social · 29/01/2025

Day 59 and it’s 1670 lost gloves. With just three days of the Season left it’s going to be hard to to hold onto being the third best total since Glovewatch began so do your best out there everyone #glovewatch #singleglove #lostglove #lonelyglove

Glovewatch - the lost gloves of Seething @glovewatch.bsky.social · 28/01/2025

Day 58 and it’s 1646 lost gloves. This is currently the third best Season in the 11 years of playing but in danger of slipping back to fourth so we need some good spotting in the last four days. #glovewatch #singleglove #lostglove #lonelyglove

Glovewatch - the lost gloves of Seething @glovewatch.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

1597 on Day 55 and just seven days left of the Season. In the year 1597 Sir Anthony Shirley, England’s “best-educated pirate”, raided Jamaica. In more recent times old Etonians have reeked their damage in other ways #glovewatch #singleglove #lostglove #lonelyglove

1562 gloves on day 54. In the year 1562 a severe hailstorm caused serious damage in the German town of Wiesensteig, leading to the demand that the Mayor arrest several women on charges of practicing witchcraft with six executed. There are people and politicians today who could believe this

1506 lost gloves on Day 52. In the year Charles II, the six-year-old son of King Philip of Castile, inherited his father’s title of Duke of Burgundy and was proclaimed “Lord of the Netherlands”. Funny to think that people used to just inherit their power … #glovewatch

Day 47 and we have reached 1347 lost gloves. In the year 1347 Charles University in Prague was founded by a bull issued by Pope Clement VI. Sometimes I wonder if we have limited the opportunities for cattle to study since then. #glovewatch #singleglove #lostglove #lonelyglove
