We went to the Chairmakers today. It’s a pub just outside Waterlooville. They do a Sunday carvery, and it is a really nice one. Always delicious. Every time I have a carvery, it reminds me of a time in 2011, was working on a contract. It meant being away from home. The hotel I stayedContinue reading “1662 – Carveries”

I have a map of the Browndown area at the waterfront in Stokes Bay. It has a lot of ley lines drawn over it. One problem I have is that it looks like it is a very old map and I am having difficulty relating the old map to today’s terrain. Now, I know itContinue reading “1661 – Ley Lines”

A picture from yesterday morning. I’m off work on Friday, and I would quite like to get into town for a quick look around during normal hours. I’m not at all confident that I will be able to do that. There are a couple of areas that I would quite like to look atin preparationContinue reading “1659 – Friday”

I do like a nice dramatic sky, and there it was this morning. I should have done a facebook post for it, but I ran out of time. Hopefully I’ll be able to do one tomorrow although, Alexa gave us a rain warning from 0500 tomorrow, so whilst my intention is to walk, it doesContinue reading “1658 – Dramatic Sky”

Once you know the context, then the picture tells its own story. For weeks now I have been burbling on about the McDonalds on The High Street. Up until yesterday morning, for a lot of the time, the frontage of the new restaurant has been covered in a high quality screen shielding activity from pryingContinue reading “1657 If I don’t do it, I’ll lose it”

I watched a YouTube a few days ago, it talked something called “Meta-Information”, it’s a bit like meta-data, When you take a photograph with a digital camera, you don’t just get the picture, you get lots of other stuff, the exposure, the details of the camera & the lens, geo-tagging & possibly more. That’s theContinue reading “1656 – Creative Writing”

It was another Camera Club walk today. We returned to Swannick Lakes. The last time we were here was late October, conditions then were very different, being autumnal. Thew whole area was very green. Admittedly, not much wildlife. But what there was, was lovely to see. It was a gentle walk, and really enjoyable. After,Continue reading “1655 – A Sunday Walk”

I’m sorry for the short post this evening, I’ve had a long day and am just really tired. This is just to keep the count going.

I enjoy studying, I have done for a long time. I found Future Learn a few years ago their courses are not too difficult, but it’s definitely a case of the more you put in, the more you get out. I’ve really taken that mantra to heart with this course, and whilst I do thinkContinue reading “1653 – Future Learn: Feature Writing”
