What do you do when you go into a bookshop? I usually take a quick look at the Science Fiction Section, but It had been quite a while since I bought an SF book. Notice the tense? Had. Now, don’t get excited, I haven’t bought a physical paper based book. I bought an audio bookContinue reading “301/366 Getting Organised?”

After yesterday’s grey and very misty morning, today’s early trip couldn’t have been much different. A clear and very bright sunny morning. It was a delightful walk, made even more so by seeing the Conmar Gulf outbound. Admittedly not a large ship at 8,000 tons on the way to Zeebrugge. And so begins post No.Continue reading “300/366 Another Milestone”

In the picture, I reckon that the Normandie is a good bit less than 200m from me, and yet is barely visible. I couldn’t even see her as she came in through the harbour entrance, it was only when I heard her that I realised she was there. I can’t recall the last time theContinue reading “299/366 A Foggy Morning”

This is a picture from part of the route that I normally follow. I have been following this walk for literally years. It’s not that I am bored with the walk. I’m not. But, there are other walks in the town. There aren’t other walks that I am aware of that have the same setContinue reading “298/366 Walking”

Perhaps a subtitle should be; “For a Plan”, with a sub-subtitle of “to plan for a plan” for a blog. I’m not sure I can do that, it kind of changes the purpose of the blog, but on the other hand haven’t I been doing that? For many weeks now, I have been working reasonablyContinue reading “297/366 A Nice Day”

It appears that Friday, which is writing about writing is turning into a review of the weeks writings. After last weeks review, I found that it was a bit of a pain to go in to each blog, re-read it, make a note that I can write about. I bought an A5 diary towards theContinue reading “296/366 Diaries, Journals & Blogs”

Last night I spoke about photographic opportunities. Tonight I’m supposed to write about the weather, according to my self imposed schedule. I think today provided me with an opportunity for a photo that I like and a topic that I’m interested in. When I left the house for my morning walk, there was a distinctContinue reading “295/366 Opportunities”

What I wanted to do was to get the boat sat on top of the pole, I couldn’t go back any further without going over the side of the bridge, and I couldn’t move in the right direction to get the boat to line up. As it happens, I still like the picture, very much.Continue reading “294/366 Photographic Opportunities”

It’s been a strange day. Mostly I got everything done that I planned. The only trouble was whenever I sat down, I wanted to go to sleep. I sat down at about 2PM, and decided to just give in. I slipped in and out, and finally surfaced at about 4. Even at the weekend, IContinue reading “293/366 An Afternoon nap”
