We were binging a boxset again last night, the same box set as I wrote about last week. This was the end of Season 7. Only one more season to go before the series ends. Annoyingly, we were so engrossed in it that by the time we finished I looked at my watch and itContinue reading “1231 – Missed a posting”

1230 – Maps
The Ordnance Survey produce some wonderful maps. I have Ancient Britain, Roman Britain and the Great Adventure Map. I even have very localised roll-up maps customised for me by the Ordnance Survey. What I would like is a customised map that shows only some very specific features, namely prehistoric features and churches (mainly because theyContinue reading “1230 – Maps”
1229 – Video & Decisions
I, I, I’m not going to show you (meant to show hesitation) the just under two minutes of video I shot very quickly and almost completely unprepared, in that I had given a bit of thought to the topic, even that I am not going to talk about. Eventually, i hope to do a videoContinue reading “1229 – Video & Decisions”
1227 – I have this book…
It’s called Prehistoric Dorset by John Gale. I bought the book quite a while ago, but like a lot of reference books, it has mostly lain unread. Until this evening that is. I was determined that I would start going through the book and identify the parts of the county it discusses. I need toContinue reading “1227 – I have this book…”
1226 – Left it too late.
I came upstairs to be on the computer to do this post. I wanted to write a post about a frustration that I feel that I can’t find posts that I would like to find on YouTube. One response to that would be; if you can’t find what it is you want then the obviousContinue reading “1226 – Left it too late.”
1225 – And so we go back to Zero!
I had an alternate title to this evening’s post “Well, I messed that up”. Actually what I messed up was really trivial, but I found it personally intensely annoying. I forgot to do a post last night. Elayne and I were in serious binge-watch mode, bringing the current binge-watch to a truly gripping climax. WeContinue reading “1225 – And so we go back to Zero!”
1224 – A Tad Shocked
Yes, I am a bit. I was doing some research into what was on the Internet regarding UFO’s purely out of interest for my book you understand only to find that a person in the 1960’s no less was suggesting exactly what I wanted to make one of the key features of my book. NowContinue reading “1224 – A Tad Shocked”
1223 – UFO’S
Obviously, this is not unidentified, but it is a flying object and that will do for the time being. One of my all time favourite films is Close Encounters of the Third Kind. When we experience First Contact, this is the way I hope it will be. Now, the danger here is that i amContinue reading “1223 – UFO’S”
1222 Dorset v. Hampshire
Arundel Castle from the train. Arundel isn’t in either Hampshire or Dorset, so why have I posted it? Well, it was the first photo from the selection that appealed to me, and I don’t think I’ve used it before. I have to be honest with you, I pretty much can barely wait to get toContinue reading “1222 Dorset v. Hampshire”
1221 – Ideas for things
I get an idea for something, go at it and then realise that it is all too complex and so it slowly fades away, but never completely. Some things get incorporated into my “interest list”, which means that I am likely to return to it, say a couple of times a year. For a fewContinue reading “1221 – Ideas for things”
