I was playing with the phone, as I was walking around and unintentionally took this picture. It makes me smile. The walk this morning was very pleasant. Nothing much going on. The new road between the cross streets isn’t taking traffic yet, but it can’t be much longer. The bus stop is being worked on,Continue reading “1366 – Sometimes, a picture makes me smile”

So, this idea that I have had to get me back on to facebook on a regular basis, or at least try requires a little bit of thought because I don’t want to just dive right in, as i might miss something. So it will be a little while before I resume as I wantContinue reading “1365 – A little bit of planning”

I think probably about a year ago, I pretty much stopped doing regular posts on Facebook, I lost the facebook mojo, so to speak. A surprisingly humbling number of people have repeatedly told me that they miss my posts, and could I start them again The thing is, I want to start posting again, butContinue reading “1364 – Monday”

The picture is of a vase that was in the pub where we had lunch after the camera club walk. There was something about it, possibly the contrast of the background colour against the unusual choice of flowers. It all fits actually quite well. I started writing this post last night, with the intention ofContinue reading “1363 – Hobbies & Interests”

Ok, it’s not a good picture, but I was walking along side the Cockle pond, looking in the water to see if there were any Jelly Fish (there isn’t) I looked up to find myself only about 15 feet from the Egret. In fact, I got the impression that it was looking at me withContinue reading “1362 – Still Thinking”

I didn’t go for a walk this morning. No particular reason other than I didn’t want to get up. That’s OK, I was happy with that. I did feel a little guilty though. I enjoyed yesterday’s walk. but I had a strange feeling over part of it, feeling that I want to write about someContinue reading “1361 – Thinking while walking”

Is not finished. I reckon it could be another month before it and the new station become operational. What you can’t really see from here is the large amount of groundwork at the other end that needs to be done. Either way, it’s beginning to look as though Gosportians don‘t like it, the main complaintContinue reading “1360 – The New Bus Shelter”

On Sunday we actually managed to get out of Gosport for a few hours. We went to The Thursley Moat, a nature park. There is a lovely walk around the moat, which is really a lake. It’s a haven for Dragonflies, which i love to watch, but they are a difficult subject to to photograph.Continue reading “1359 – We managed to get out”

I knew I had missed a post last night. But it appears that I’d missed two others well – I’m not sure how that happened. I’m sorrry about that – I will make sure to try and do better this week. I’ve promised myself,a ndd kind of to Dave as well that I would atContinue reading “1358 – What happened there?”

I looked out the window this morning and although it wasn’t raining, it was a bit windy and the clouds looked like they wanted to let rip plus the breeze coming in through the window was cold. I just decided to go back to bed. Sorry it’s a short post tonight.
