OK, that didn’t go well. I kind of ran out of steam last night. It was a pathetic post – sorry about that. As this blog has gone on from Post No. 1 onwards, I’ve always tried to have a goal in mind. As time went on, would I get to 100? 250? 500 AllContinue reading “727 – Re 726”

I managed to get out for a morning walk. Not the usual three mile walk, but I did get a couple of miles in. I also had to pop out at lunchtime, only to the shop to buy a couple of things. It was very warm, showing 31C. But actually, it wasn’t too bad.

The most obvious and self evident thing that I can say about an evening walk is that the light is completely different to that of the morning, coming as it does from 180 degrees away. I thought I would go for an evening stroll, rather than at lunchtime as the sun was a bit fierce.Continue reading “725 – An evenings stroll”

I guess the photo above is a kind of street photography. The thing about street photography is that just sometimes, you can get away with street shots with no people and of course, I am an expert in Street Photography aren’t I? I think the lighting, the architecture shadows or some other aspect should beContinue reading “724 – Street Photography”

Here’s a thing; after being stuck indoors for three days having had an adverse reaction to some medicine I’ve been taking, I think I am prepared to forgive myself the two rather pathetic posts of the weekend and the one that I missed because i just didn’t feel up to doing anything, if I amContinue reading “723 – A Real Test?”

I was a little bit more than tired. Had a really rough weekend. Hopefully fully back to normal in a couple of days. Another pathetic post. Sorry about that.

Really sorry for tonight’s post. Just got back from the radio club and feel absolutely drained, but don’t want to lose my running streak. So tonight’s post is feeble in the extreme. Sorry about this. Will try and do better tomorrow.

Thursdays is one of those days. I do a thing called the Thursday Night Net, which is a regular amateur radio event. If you are on Facebook, look for the GB3IW page. There are literally hundreds of videos of me doing the net. I love it, but one of the frustrations is I have toContinue reading “720 – It’s late again”

I see very few people whilst out on my morning walk. I talk to even fewer of them. This morning was a very nice example of encounters that I have whilst out walking. A lady taking her dog for a walk and the dog hasn’t so much taken a fancy to me as needing someContinue reading “719 – People”

If I leave writing a post until last thing in the evening, I then immediately get stuck for something to write. Writing posts earlier de-stresses me. But I still have to think of something to write about. when I was out walking my usual route, which involves going from the cross street down to theContinue reading “718 – Short Post History”
