You will know if you are a regular reader of this blog, or even if yesterday was your first visit (in which case welcome, I do hope you’ve returned for a second visit) then you know that it didn’t go stunningly well; in fact it was empty. I simply couldn’t think of anything to write.Continue reading “1958 – Sometimes, I can be a Numpty.”

I’m kiind of a bit stuck tonight. I’ve just spent the best part of the last hour looking at the screen, and absolutely nothing has come to mind. Also, it’s getting close to midnight so i need to publish this to maintain the count.

On sunday, we paid a visit to Butser Ancient Farm. I’ve been wanting to visit this place for quite a while. As the visit got closer, I wanted to find out what we would be seeing. With a little bit of searching, I found a site map. This was interesting. Going in through the entranceContinue reading “1956 – Butser Ancient Farm”

I apologise for not posting last night. I decided not to do so out of respect for a family situation that I don’t want to talk about here.

I had an error message pop up, and I clicked the wrong button, meaning that I lost the post, and actually it was very close to the end, with only one or two short paragraphs toContinue reading “1952 – Oh Dear!”

Tonight was another competition at the Gosport Camera Club. The last print competition of the season. There’s one more PDI competition after this, then we are in the rundown to the end of season. Elayne and I both put three prints into the competition, I think for us it is a case of put somethingContinue reading “1951 – An Experiment”

Here is something that I have never done before, and I don’t know why. I buy a lot of books that I think may be useful for reference purposes. But, how do I know whether they will be really useful? Obviously, you need to get at least an overview of what the book is about,Continue reading “1950 – Book Mapping”
