There are a few things that I want to do or get involved in. But I’m not going to until I’ve retired. There may also be other topics that I’m not yet ready to discuss here that invovle issues that I am concerned about, but which could quickly become political. I don’t really want toContinue reading “1802 – Not quite Ready”

Not Really. But I have to confess that I have left things a bit late tonight and am now really tired. As i sit and write this, I’ve just dropped off a zoom that I was having with some friends (I was about to say really good friends, but they are friends, which automatically makesContinue reading “1801 – No walk today”

Unless something significant happens over the next few weeks, I don’t think I am going to be doing much videoing, beyond the odd clip. Purely and simply, I have changed my walking schedule, and now don’t have much time for anything other than a quick march to the waterfront and back. I was able toContinue reading “1800 – Vlogging”

Sometimes things can be really frustrating. I’m thinking about the morning walk. I have pretty much stopped walking at around 6AM. I can get up and go to work at that time, because I don’t have to leave the house. I’ve lost the #Breakfastclub on the radio. Some of us met up on Saturday morningContinue reading “1799 – The morning walk”

A picture of the machine that has beeen creating the piles of crushed rubble. Although the main building has gone, I suspect that its role here is not over. The hard standing it is on will have to go. I wonder how thick it is? It seems strange now to see the empty space whereContinue reading “1798 – The Muncher & Pigeons.”

We are about halfway through Autumn (01 Sep to 21 Dec). The vegetation is starting to turn. It is that which has drawn members of the Gosport Camera Club out for a Sunday Morning walk. Today’s expedition is Swanbourne Lake. Quite often, lakes like this are the resuly of quarrying, typically for gravel. But SwanbourneContinue reading “1797 – A Camera Club Trip”

Simply because I got to have a buffet breakfast with some good friends in Portsmouth, friends who had travelled a few miles and crossed water to meet up, enjoy food together and good chat. An excellent morning. Also good because I got to spend a bit of time having a good browse in one ofContinue reading “1796 – A Nice Day”

I thought it might be cold before stepping out of hte house. I have to confess that I almost turned round and came home. My heel was hurting a bit, and it was colder than I anticipated and I really should have had some gloves, but I haven’t looked for them, so I don’t knowContinue reading “1795 – There’s a change in the Air”

We had Aurora with us today, so we were looking after her. I am going to try and do my thing of getting up early, working, then going for a walk. I’m OK with getting up, I just don’t want to go out when it’s dark. The Bus Station will be the main focus ofContinue reading “1794 – I didn’t go for a walk today.”

I’m sure there is a picture to be had of the ripples caused by a gull swimming in the Cockle Ponds. I’m not at all convinced this is it, and this is the closest I have got to the gull before it jumps in to the pond and swims off in a panic at myContinue reading “1793 – Morning walk”
