I’ve used this photo today, for no reason other than it’s not a picture of the Spinnaker or of The Commodore Clipper coming in. Not that there is anything wrong at all with either subject, but I just happened to take this one because I quite like the way the sun glinted off the shopContinue reading “1725 – Just thinking really.”

This time last week, I wrote a post outlining a very simple plan about what I was going to do in the coming week, which I could relate to this blog. It only kind of partially worked, but I am going to persist. So here is another go at planning out some things. To beContinue reading “1725 – The Week Ahead”

First off, the mis-numbering I somehow managed to go from 1722 – 1733. I’ve corrected that now, and I just hope that I haven’t made the same mistake in the past. If I have, I’m not going to revisit and re number everything. I don’t think I have though. Sorry about that. I had aContinue reading “1724 – Today & Mis-numbering”

The week is beginning to follow a bit of a pattern, Monday, Tuesday, morning walks with radio in hand and the occasional photo. Wednesday, is a walk with my gimbal, doing some videoing. Thursdays I have some duties around the house that prevent me from going for a walk (that is merely an observation, inContinue reading “1723 – Is it really a dilemma?”

At this precise moment, the answer to that question is I have no idea. really that is a problem. There’s a particdular YouTuber I watch. I really can’t think why I follow the channel. They are American, and like a lot of American channels, they are very business oriented. Of course, in their own right,Continue reading “1722 – What to write about?”

I have to be honest and say that I’m not entirely convinced as to the accuracy of that title, but it sounds quite dramatic, so I thought I’d go as long with it. It being the first Wednesday of the month, I decided to allow my self the indulgence of having a Double Sausage &Continue reading “1721 – Food is the life blood of Vlogging”

You’ll very quickly notice that the picture of the Brittany Ferry Islander (which I don’t think I have seen before) has only the merest hint of an association with the subject of the title of todays post. The round tower is the site of one of the defence works that guard the entrance to PortsmouthContinue reading “1720 – The Round Tower”

Just down the road from us there are a couple of good conker trees. Elayne insists that we gather enough to them in the corners of at least the lounge and the dining room, to deter spiders. Now, we’ve done that fairly consistently and if the truth be told, we don’t often see spiders marchingContinue reading “1719 – Conkers & Spiders”

It was just a generally normal day, during breakfast we decided on meals for the week, and from that came the shopping list. Not a lot justa few things. Even the visit to the shop wasn’t unpleasant. I had to go to another store to get bin liners as I prefer theirs to the oneContinue reading “1718 – A rather nice day”

We went to Claires for Breakfast. I thouroughly enjoyed that, but then, when we got home, and after a 10 minute sit down to allow the food to go down, we got on with clearing the growth out the front. This is a once or twice a year job, and very satisfying when done. IContinue reading “1717 – A busy day”
