I’m not comfortable in my office chair. After my clumsy efforts to change the gas cylinder that didn’t work, but looks like it may have weakened the mount, and I don’t want to have a repeat of the end of the last chair when it gave away, and I went over backwards. My mission todayContinue reading “1264 – A Great Adventure”

Don’t worry, I’m not getting all emotional or anything. We are watching an Australian TV show, The Heart Guy (called Doctor Doctor in Australia, which might be down under, or up over depending on how you view the universe). Anyhow, at one point someone said something, so significant that I can’t remember what it was.Continue reading “1263 – Where are we from?”

It’s my office chair. The gas cylinder has gone. So the seat is at maximum depression, which means it is too low. I looked up to see if it was possible to just change the cylinder rather than pay out for a new chair. As usual, YouTube made it look very easy. Cylinders appear toContinue reading “1262 – So, I had this problem…”

My brain is conflicted this evening. I am unable to focus enough to be able to do justice to the blog. So, my apologies only a count-sustainer post this evening.

After the excitement of Exbury yesterday, today, I tried to do as little as possible. I don’t know if my back is easier – by a small amount. It’ll just be a matter of time. I have been having problems with my office chair, the gas cylinder has gone, and it is way too low.Continue reading “1260 – A day of not doing a lot”

Not only have I never been to Exbury Gardens, before today I had never heard of it. We wanted do something other than just got to the shops, we can do that any time. We wanted to just get out for a bit. Elayne found the place, it looked interesting, so we thought we’’d giveContinue reading “1259 – Exbury”

I’ve suddenly realised that it’s bit late, and that apart from writing about the sudden episode of very uncomfortable back ache that I’ve developed, I can’t think any topic for tonights post. So, we could be heading for another brief post. I don’t know how I did it, certainly not an incorrect lift. But theContinue reading “1258 – After last night…”

Another B&W picture tonight, this one is of the Abbey at Romsey. There is a lot of history there. But the purpose of tonights post isn’t talk about that. It occurs to me that recently, a lot of my posts have been placeholders, to keep the internal count in WordPress going. That means that theContinue reading “1257 – Are these posts cheating?”

After commenting last night that I hadn’t done mono for a while and using one last night I thought we might as well have a bit of a run of them. I thought the lines in this one were quite interesting and I liked the clouds, so why not? Sorry that this one is goingContinue reading “1256 – The Bridge in Mono”

I have used the colour version of this picture before. I think because I haven’t been quite as prolific with my camera recently for some reason I haven’t thought about black & white imagery until this evening for quite some time. Then, as I say this evening I suddenly thought I haven’t made a b&WContinue reading “1255 – Black & White”
