Last year, when our holiday to China went wrong because of Covid-19, I kind of just started writing about a fantasy holiday, which got a little bit out of control. But I really enjoyed doing it, and I knew that this year i would want to do it again. So I made up my mindContinue reading “337/366 Bad Planning!”

If you read up on street photography the famous street photogaphers produce books of fantastic locations in incredibly lovely situations, and the photos are invariably excellent. I’m sure that if they put their mind to it, they would produce some excellent Street Photography in a small Town. YouTube is a really interesting resource. I accidentallyContinue reading “336/366 Street Photography in a small town”

It was a lovely walk this morning, the skies were clear, the screaming seagull took a dive at me, I waved my arms and diverted it. I hope I haven’t put it off, I quite enjoy our encounters. The walk down the high street is always interesting I usually see the same people. There’s aContinue reading “335/366 Tuesday”

No walk this morning, rain. I think I am likely to go tomorrow regardless of the weather. I haven’t had a collision of books for quite a while. I think I have given up on Bede for a while. It was just a feeling that although interesting, the book isn’t quite what I expected. WhyContinue reading “334/366 Mondays”

I took this picture yesterday, whilst in town. Looking at it in colour, it is a pretty banal shot, so I was on the verge of deletion, but then I thought I would make it mono. That one act, for me, turns it into an interesting picture, but I don’t know why. I have beenContinue reading “333/366 I visit a Bookshop”

OK, this is not a religious text. The capitalisation is intentional, in this case the EV in EVangilisation means Electric Vehicle. We bought one a few weeks back. Now, don’t get me wrong, it’s a lovely car and an absolute delight to drive, but it’s an electric vehicle. If the government sticks to its plans,Continue reading “332/366 EVangelising”

It’s ridiculous isn’t it? here were are really not that far from 366, I still don’t really know what I am going to do next. And yet I do. It’s just letting it happen. In a way it won’t matter that I can drop the 366, and it won’t really matter if I don’t doContinue reading “331/366 What Next Then?”

A surprisingly pleasant looking little close right in the middle of the town. This isn’t far, less than 10’s of yards from North Cross Street. North Cross Street has become nervously entertaining on my morning walk; What are the chances that two people would be at the same point of their journey on two daysContinue reading “330/366 The morning walk”

These two beauties swam past the Haslar Marina Sea Wall. They weren’t in a rush. The water wasn’t really rough, but it was “busier” than normal. I had a vision of them paddling like crazy whilst maintaining the serene image they gave above. I have two magazines, with a possible third on the way, andContinue reading “329/366 A reading rush”

First thing this morning, when I woke up it was blowing a gale and absolutely chucking it down. I fell back asleep, and woke up just after the time I would normally be up. I hadn’t expected to get up or go out for a walk. The second time I woke up, I felt aContinue reading “328/366 Walking in the Rain”
