This is Covid – the vixen, she has a cub. Every day at about 8PM the staff at the Covid Testing Station feed her. They named her Covid. I went for a walk this afternoon. There was no specific destination, it was just a thing to get out and cover some distance, so it wasContinue reading “368 The Expanse, books shops & Foxes”

We have two bird tables, the second, the one I am writing about today is a cheap one that I bought, that I have never really been satisfied with. The main reasons for my dissatisfaction are that it’s too short, and it’s too unstable. I has a tendency blow over. I’ve looked for a replacementContinue reading “367 Bird Tables”

I’m really sorry, but this post is completely self-indulgent. For 366 days, apart from 1 time 116 days ago, when I messed up timing I’ve done it, I’ve made an entry every day. I can’t tell you how pleased that I am with that. The timing is correct, I wrote 1/366 on 14 Aug lastContinue reading “366/366 OMG – 366/366!!!”

They’ve chopped down a tree on the high street. This is what is left of the stump; I must admit that the tree did lean at an awkward angle across the high street. I can see how it could be a hazard. But, I would also hazard a guess that most people in the townContinue reading “365/366 The last, but one.”

Having a number in the title has been useful for me to keep track of where I am going. It’s obvious from the title that after this post I am only two days away from the end of Project 366. I can remember wondering when I started it whether I would be able to keepContinue reading “364/366 Enumeration”

You’d think that the boardwalk part of this picture would be a waste of space, taking away from the picture. Whilst it doesn’t add a massive amount it is a part of the picture. As is the huge bank of cloud that was delivering some relatively gentle rain over Bembridge on the Isle of WightContinue reading “363/366 The Waterfront”

Woke up early to the sound of pounding rain, and a massive clap of thunder. I got up when it was relatively quiet,to the point where I thought that it might not be raining. It was difficult to tell from the bedroom, so I went to the conservatory, a steady pounding there. I wasn’t goingContinue reading “362/366 A rainy day”

By 9AM it was absolutely chucking it down. A check of the forecast indicated 100% rain in Gosport between 9 & 1. There were a couple of times when the rain eased off almost to the point of stopping, I even had my shoes on at one point – the rain started again. I decidedContinue reading “361/366 Out for a walk”

I spoke to the people who were sailing these last week. The captain of the Gosport Model Yacht Club Laser Class, Chris, he very kindly offered me use of the clubs demo model. I turned up as agreed at 10 this morning. Now it had been raining very heavily not long before, and whilst theContinue reading “360/366 Sailing (models)”

I was walking down the high street when I saw these, shapes, lines and colours I thought that might be an interesting picture. So I stopped and grabbed it. Admittedly, I have done a little bit of cropping. I like the shapes and the colours, with even the bars being blue. I can’t tell youContinue reading “359/366 Grab shots”
