1916 – A Lovely day.

We had a bit of admin to deal with first thing, Once that was sout of the way I was able to head into town.

Unfortunately, I was having a problem with my hearing aids. Went back to Scrivens, who had supplied them to me, and one of their staff, a young man, immediately and very efficiently sorted me out and got me going again. That was a pleasant experience, I have been impressed with their support and efficiency – it’s really nice to be able to say that.

Once I was clear of the shop, I didn’t have anything else that I needed to do for a couple of hours, so I had a wander down to the sea front, just in time to see one of the Bunkering tankers (ship refuellers), The Whitchallenger, coming in through the harbour entrance. Always worth a picture:

I walked back up the high street, and for some reason hesitated before heading into the Craft Cafe. Just for a cup of tea today, I had Pizza waiting for me at home. I think it was about 40 minutes I sat their nursing my tea, and doing my facebook post, and just watching people go by.

I really don’t mind dull, grey days. They are a part of us, but we have had so many of them recently, that a bit of sun really had to be appreciated.

I’ve gone on about Street Photography, so I did a bit of an exercise photographing anyone or anything wearing, or that was yellow or had yellow in it. Hence the header picture, which one again is one of those that I really quite like, but I could no more tell you why or fly!

It was, as I siad in my facebook post, just a really nice day.

To be capped off with a bit of Stargazing, the second night I have been able to do this. I think I even managed to find Capella. It was well round to the west, as was Orion. I much more used to seeing that constellation to the south, but that is all down to the time of day and year.

I just want to write, but I prefer to stay away from controversial topics like politics. I am happy to confess that at the moment, I am writing for me. If you enjoy my writings, and I hope you do then that is all the better.
