I had lost track of time. Really, I fell asleeep at my desk. I was going to write a short piece about how the fountain on the Falklands Gardenss hasn’t worked for several years. I read somewhere recently that the council were going to get it fixed. And, lo and behols, here are some peopleContinue reading “2140 – They are fixing the fountain”

2139 – Back to normal & Videoing (yes, that’s not vlogging)
After the slight mess up about the nummbering of my blogs (I’m not saying I haven’t done this before, it has just never come to light on quite this scale, at least. Thanks to a comment by my friend Mark, I’ve deccided to leave things as they are. The mis-numbering sequence stands as a beaconContinue reading “2139 – Back to normal & Videoing (yes, that’s not vlogging)”
2099 – NO -IT’S NOT! IT’S 2138
I did a search because I wanted to find out the last time I did a blog about vlogging. It immediately threw up an anomally. It showed Post 2092 as being a post of interest. Well, that wasn’t right, according to my post numbering, that was only last week, plus the topic of 2092 wasContinue reading “2099 – NO -IT’S NOT! IT’S 2138”
2098 – Camera Club
We had a bit of a change of tyhe programme tonight. The club has been asked by the council if we can help in a project. It appears that the council has a lot of old photographs of Gosport, and somebody, I’m not sure who is leading the project, wants to update them. Sorr, I’mContinue reading “2098 – Camera Club”
2097 – 4th Monday
The 4th Monday of the month, is a busy day for me, especially at the moment. In the morning, I have u3a Stargazing. There’s a group of 5 or six of us that meet in The Vine, a cafe on Stokes Road, to talk about what else but The Stars. Well really, the night sky,Continue reading “2097 – 4th Monday”
2096 – Letter to Steve XXXII, Latin & The New Forest
Dear Steve, Gilbert’s opening paragraph is largely Latin to me—in more ways than one. I can follow what he is trying to establish, but the detail makes me conscious of how much I don’t know, and of the opportunities to learn that I am not making for myself. What do I mean by that? GilbertContinue reading “2096 – Letter to Steve XXXII, Latin & The New Forest”
2095 – Early on Saturday
I can’t remember the last time I was down at the waterfront early enough to take a picture like this. it was around 0720 (actually, the picture information tells me it was 0714). I had just. dropped Elayne off so that she could catch the train to London to see her friends for the day.Continue reading “2095 – Early on Saturday”
2094 – In the shop
Storm Austin has been doing its thing. Elayne went to Gunwharf to meet up with friends who had travelled down from St Neots to see her (very nice). Except that their journey home has been severely disrupted and may not even now, (23:30) be home. I had popped to the shop in the morning, andContinue reading “2094 – In the shop”
2093 – The Atlantic
It’s been a few weeks since I did a post relating to the Atlantic crtossing. The journey is slippiing into the mists of time. This picture is taken from our balcony. At the time, we were passing over the mid atlantic ridge, This is where the european & American plates are moving away fromm eachContinue reading “2093 – The Atlantic”
2092 – The Imperial War Museum
This months Gosport Shed Trip was to the Imperial War Museum. It’s another of the London Museums that I have not been to before. Like many of our museums, entry is free, I honestly can’t think of any museum that I have been in where I wouldn’t say that it is very well organised, andContinue reading “2092 – The Imperial War Museum”
