For quite a while now, I’ve been writing to a topic schedule. In theory I am still happy with that, what I am not pleased with is some of the content of some of the posts. There are occasions, when I do run out of things to write, I suppose it is a kind ofContinue reading “211/366 How’s it going?”

I was awake at 0300 this morning, it was the wind wot woke me. I can quite easily equate last night gales to a vandal. It certainly felt like it. I had major problems sleeping, and mostly didn’t. This was due to the wind taking great pleasure in kicking a tin can down the street.Continue reading “210/366 Gusty Gosport”

I did say that I would look at following the exercises or assignments in the Tom Ang Book. I haven’t done anything. I’m not sure why, I just really haven’t thought about it. The book isn’t my main book of the moment. I’ll have a think about it. This morning’s walk was very pleasant. IContinue reading “209/366 Well, that’s not working.”

For the last couple of weeks I’ve been walking in one particular direction on my morning walk; ant-clockwise. I like walking that way because when I reach the waterfront I do my weather report for the #Breakfastclub and then I only have a relatively short walk (1/3 roughly) home. If I go clockwise, then IContinue reading “208/366 Decisions, Decisions”

A cold, clear fresh morning greeted me. No wind meant no windchill, which was very nice. Mind you though, the weather is promising a big change with storms coming mid week. I tend not to walk if it’s raining, so we’ll have to see what the week brings. I’ve finished reading the Gosport Journals. AfterContinue reading “207/366 The Leaflets”

In one way, it hasn’t been a very successful walking week. I didn’t get out at all on Friday or Saturday, they were very lazy days. On the other hand I have closed up over 20 miles. I know, that’s not many, but it’s enough for the week to keep my Walk 1000 on track.Continue reading “206/366 A Glorious Day”

I thought these two lovely birds were yellow wagtails. It appears not; grey wagtails. Yellows have a yellow head and are more yellow generally. Anyhow, I caught this picture this morning, both birds were bobbing about and every so often running over to the little pile of food that I have started putting down forContinue reading “205/366 The Occasional Obsession”

Well, (Is it a cliche when people start sentences with words like Well, So or Now)? Anyhow, Well, wasn’t yesterday’s efforts pretty feeble? I think it must have been a massive case of indigestion. I was very uncomfortable for several hours, but did have a good nights sleep. I didn’t go for a walk thisContinue reading “204/366 Writing”

It was a calm day, quite a light breeze, but what little there was still caused a bit of wind chill. I’m not sure what the forecast is for tomorrow, but if it is dry, I intend to be out for my walk in the morning. I don’t mind it being cold. It has beenContinue reading “203/366 Walking Weather?”

I am going to do something I definitely don’t normally do in this blog. Just very briefly I’m going to talk about me. When I was at school, one of my favourite subjects was history. I can’t remember what it was that I enjoyed about the subject, I just remember that enjoyment. Then I wentContinue reading “202/366 A Lesson in History”
