In yesterdays post, number 1966, I wrote about a concern that I hadn’t had an adventure on Thursday, and therefore didn’t have much to put into yesterday’s post (I was wrong as it happened) but that is on complete contrast to today. After breakfast I went up to The Shed, as I was hoping toContinue reading “1967 – Out and About in Gosport”

1966 – Granddaughters and the Magna Carta
The header picture has no connection with the day. I am sat at the computer, it’s getting late, and I am in fear of having another bout of writer’s block. I’m also slightly concerned that on occasion, these posts are turning into something that I really should put on Facebook – at least they feelContinue reading “1966 – Granddaughters and the Magna Carta”
1965 – From Nothing to Something
I have to be honest and say that I didn’t think I had a post in me today, simply because I didn’t feel that what I had done was worthy. But, after some consideration I’ll give it a go and see what you think. This morning, I was on a u3a Interest Group Online (IGO)Continue reading “1965 – From Nothing to Something”
1964 – Busy doing Nothing
It is getting to a bit of a pleasant routine that would normally happen on a Monday morning, except it’s a day late this week. Having made a cup of tea and fed the cat, I come back upstairs and retreive Gilbert’s book from the office. I settle down to read the next letter fromContinue reading “1964 – Busy doing Nothing”
1963 – Letter to Steve VIII
Before we get to Letter to Steve, I just want to apologise for the 1-day delay to its publication, which was due to the post I really wanted to do last night about the visit to Powderham Castle, and Dawlish. Having said that, here is Letter to Steve VIII: Hi Steve, Before I start onContinue reading “1963 – Letter to Steve VIII”
1962 – Powderham Castle & Dawlish
Today’s trip out was to two locations, the first of which was Powderham Castle, which to my shame I had never heard of before this trip was organised. Whilst travelling to the castle this morning, I heard one of my friends describe it as a fortified Manor House, so I had no idea what toContinue reading “1962 – Powderham Castle & Dawlish”
1961 – Funny Pictures
One of themes for an upcoming evening at the camera club is humorous pictures. Now, I immediately have a problem with this, my sense of humour can be so dry (I was going to say that a desert is like a lake in comparison, but’s probably totally inappropriate, but you get my drift – hopefully)Continue reading “1961 – Funny Pictures”
1960 – Memories of the 1960’s
The River Frome, the lesser photogenic western side. Showing itself to be more than just memories. Today, I could if I were inclined to, and to be honest if I’d had the time I could have hired a rowing boat for an hour and just gently pootled (actually, I’m surprised that is recognised as aContinue reading “1960 – Memories of the 1960’s”
1959 – Another Trip in the offing
I thoroughly enjoyed the visits with the Gosport Shed to the Greenwich Maritime Museum, and the Fleet Air Arm museum at Yeovilton. On each visit, I felt that I had a good amount of time to look at the exhibits. The next trip is being planned to the Swindon Railway Museum at the end ofContinue reading “1959 – Another Trip in the offing”
1958 – Sometimes, I can be a Numpty.
You will know if you are a regular reader of this blog, or even if yesterday was your first visit (in which case welcome, I do hope you’ve returned for a second visit) then you know that it didn’t go stunningly well; in fact it was empty. I simply couldn’t think of anything to write.Continue reading “1958 – Sometimes, I can be a Numpty.”
