Being really tired this morning I decided not to go for a walk. Sometimes it’s a relief to sink back into bed, especially with a cup of tea, knowing that you don’t have to get up for an hour or so. At the same time though there is a measure of frustration at missing outContinue reading “1638 – Not walking”

After going for my morning walk I like to do a facebook post that just tells a little bit of story about the morning stroll. I didn’t do a post this morning. Why not? You might reasonably ask. Well, to be honest, I’m slightly concerned. My last few posts have been a little formulaic. “BonContinue reading “1637 – A slight concern”

Tuesday nights is camera club night. Tonight though was a bit special. We had an external judge looking at all of the pictures that have been submitted for inclusion in the camera clubs 2025 summer exhibition. All through the year I’ve submitted a number of pictures in competitions. At best, judges have held a coupleContinue reading “1636 – Well, Blow me Down”

I have every intention of going for a walk, either tomorrow or the next day I very much want to get into town and see what is going on in the high street. It’s really frustrating that I haven’t been able to. I have also been neglecting my history book, I haven’t touched it forContinue reading “1635 – Going for a walk”

Once again, the picture has nothing to do with the subject. Last week, Elayne suggested that we have breakfast out. At the time, it really wasn’t convenient so we decided not to go. But that we would go this week. I reminded Elayne this morning that last week she promised me a breakfast. So weContinue reading “1634 – Breakfast”

We went to a very special party this afternoon, to celebrate VE day. One of of near neighbours had put a lot of effort into getting the arrangements into place to close part of the street for the party, had arranged for tables to be put in plavce. All we had to do was provideContinue reading “1633 – We had a lovely day”

A short post tonight, to keep the automatic counter going. Feeling very tired, so sorry about that.

It’s been just about a week since i last went out for a walk, and apart one very brief foray earlier this week, I haven’t left the house. To be honest, I haven’t felt like leaving the house. But that doesn’t mean that I am not missing my walks around town and seeing what isContinue reading “1631 – Frustrations”

When does it convert from being ill when I get sympathy from the wife to man-flu when I don’t. At the moment I’m still in the Ill phase, but I suspect that won’t last long as I felt a bit better this evening- but I hasten to add I am still wheezing and doing anythingContinue reading “1630 – I’m a bit better”

I’ve been a bit under the weather these last couple of days. I keep on trying to sleep, but fail. I didn’t go to the camera club. I didn’t think they would appreciate my spreading this around. I took a day off work. I messaged my boss on whatsapp, the last time I did thatContinue reading “1629 – Still have a cold.”
