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.”

It’s a bit of a stinker, my nose is making a serious effort to increase water flow in the harbour, and my body has told my brain, in no uncertain terms, that it is going to bed, which is where I am now. I still have every intention of going for a walk in theContinue reading “1628 – I have cold”

Since we joined the Gosport Camera Club I have been using my Nikon a lot more. To be honest I’m not massively impressed with the results. Let me make something clear; I am not blaming the camera for my dissatisfaction, it is entirely down to my lack of skill with the camera, and that IContinue reading “1627 – The Nikon question again”

The picture was taken yesterday, it bears no relation to today’s post. A while ago, we took delivery of a new set of garden furniture. We were only able to assemble it today. It came in three rather big & heavy boxes. Initially, we thought we were lucky that to assemble the furniture would onlyContinue reading “1626 – A nut, a bolt & deleted expletives”
