For the first time in nearly three weeks (actually, it’s only a day short) I did an early morning walk of Gosport town centre. Not my normal walk, in that I cut it short by about a mile.
I enjoyed the walk, the weather was lovely the sun shone with a delightful warmth, even at 6AM shorts and t-shirt were perfect clothing. I thought I would follow up on my post from yesterday, written in anticipation.
The wild patch near the railway station was exactly that, a mass of grass with the occasional dot of colour, yellow flowers going to seed.
North cross street is slowly being torn up. Presumably in preparation for traffic. They are doing things to south cross street. I’ve not looked at that. I will try and remember to do so tomorrow.
Very little change at the waterfront, except the lightship does appear to be back in service, which is really good. There’s some construction work going on next to it. Only small wooden huts, but I can’t work out what they are going to be used for – they look like fast food places.
The cockle pond water was a bit murky, I couldn’t see the bottom. No sign of jelly fish. Not really surprising, but the miniature crayon fish appear to be present in large numbers. I’ll keep an eye on them.
That was it then, I more or less went straight home afterwards.
