I didnv’t go for a walk this morning. We were busy doing things before Elayne had to go out early, and a couple just didn’t go right. A sense of frustration was building, and I needed to calm down. Also, I was very tired and just didn’t feel right for a walk. I was lookingContinue reading “1583 – One of those days”

Tuesday Nights are Camera club nights, and this week Gosport hosted the next stage of the South Coast Photographic Federation (SCPF) League competition.

Over the last few nights I’ve mentioned the latest history book I’ve bought, Rebellion by Tim Harris with the subtitle of Britains first Stuart Kings. I have to say that the book holds a lot of promisr, starting with the fly leaf which informs potential readers that the book covers the period from 1567 (TheContinue reading “1581 – Rebellion!”

I took this picture from the upper floor of the discovery centre on Saturday afternoon, it looks out over the open area next to the council offices.

Involving two busses in each direct, the outwrd journey was uneventful. I enjoyed a quick snack in Wendy’s the burger brand that had dissappeared from our streets literally decadesContinue reading “1578 – Bus Pass to Portsmouth”

I was due to have a book delivered today, “Rebellion: England’s Early Stuart Kings”. From the title of the post, you’ll gather that didn’t happen. I was tracking the order, originally due for delivery b y 10PM. As the day progressed, times changed, at one point it was 19:56. When it got that specific, IContinue reading “1577 – That’s frustrating!”

I think it is very likely that I have written about this before, I haven’t looked at my list of blogs and done a search. Tonight the thing on my mind is all about writing a book. The thing is that I never do it,, I may think about it a lot, and I mayContinue reading “1576 – It’s a circular thing”

Camera Club Night. At the moment there are two types of club nights, The Club books a room in the club every other week, where we have a formal night running competitions or other club activities, and the other night is a “Bar Night”. Bar Nights are a good opportunity to have a bit ofContinue reading “1575 – Tuesday Nights Is…”

There are several books about various aspects of Gosport, and there is a book, the story of Gosport by Lesley Burton & Brian Musselwhite. It’s getting toward time to read that again and use it as a reference. Also, I need to make a bit more coherent and actually start using it. I learn bitsContinue reading “1574 – The History of <Where ever>”
