Up until today, the air has mostly been cold. Today, though it looks as though the sun is breaking through. It’s been quite a pleasant day. We did a little bit in the garden, and then spent some sitting at the bottom of the garden. First, I put the morning breakfast on the bird table.Continue reading “1004 – A sunny day”

1003 – The Morning Walk
Usually in the morning after I get back from my walk one of the things I usually do is a post on Facebook. Usually three or four paragraphs something about the walk, the antics of Misty the cat, visitors to the bird table, and anything else that takes my fancy. I’ve been having a bitContinue reading “1003 – The Morning Walk”
1002 – Real Dorset
I should stress that the header picture is nothing at all to do with Dorset. That august county is the subject of a book by author Jon Woolcott which I am currently reading. I have to say that I like the style of writing, it’s straightforward, humorous, sometimes self deprecating and entertaining. It’s an easyContinue reading “1002 – Real Dorset”
1001 – shall we carry on?
When I got back from my morning walk, I sat with the iPad and Facebook open. I really wanted to write something, but for some reason I couldn’t bring my self to do it. It wasn’t writers block, well, yes I suppose it was, because I just could not think of what to write. TheContinue reading “1001 – shall we carry on?”
1000 – Writing a Milestone
Here we are then, the milestone that I have been waiting for number 1000, now that doesn’t mean 1000 nights unfortunately, but I’m still happy that I have got this far. I think there were two main reasons why I started this blog; I wanted to write, and because of Covid, I had the time.Continue reading “1000 – Writing a Milestone”
999 – Back on track
After the mess/mix up over the weekend, it’s nice to be back on track. Once I am past tomorrows milestone I think I will be able to get on with my normal meanderings. There’s reading of course, I’m getting my fiction mostly at lunchtimes when I listen to my audio books. I’ve re-visited a lotContinue reading “999 – Back on track”
997 – what do I do now?
I have an excuse for messing things up. My step-son invited me along on his stag do, even though I’m a grumpy old so-send-so. He had a good time, enjoyed himself with good friends, and didn’t end up in a mail sack on the midnight train to Edinburgh. But, what it has done is messedContinue reading “997 – what do I do now?”
998 – Saturday Night
This is a scheduled post to make sure I keep the count going.
996 – Jelly Fish
It had been a normal walk until I arrived at the cockle pond. Normally there is quite a large crowd of jelly fish in the south east corner so I was disappointed to see only a few in the corner. Unusually there was a person ahead of me and they were stood looking into theContinue reading “996 – Jelly Fish”
995 – Megalithic
It certainly is not the life style that attracts me, I have absolutely no desire to experience life in that era, four thousand years ago. It must have been harsh and brutal but at the same time a society was forming. That society gave rise to farming, an people living in homes rather than caves.Continue reading “995 – Megalithic”
