Our first long trip in our electric car. 60 miles. It was fine, obviously, we had enough charge that we could have come back, but they had charge points there, so we used the opportunity to top up. One reason was to compare driving styles. Mine is more conservative, but at the end of bothContinue reading “304/366 RHS Wisely”

It is quite likely that over the next 63 days you are going to get fed up with me. That’s because I am probably be going to be doing a fair bit of self analysis of my writing between now and then, and what I may be dong when 366 comes to an end. SinceContinue reading “303/366 Writing for Locality”

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”
