You get two for the price of one today. Come 3PM, we’d had breakfast, cleaned the house, put up some more Christmas lights, had lunch and some other bits and pieces and apart from the walk to top up the bird table I hadn’t left the house. I wanted to go for a walk. IContinue reading “121/366 Saturday Walk”

120/366 The Bird Table
A problem is that there is little point having the motion sensor active because it picks up the movement of the leaves. It can’t distinguish between that and a squadron of starlings. Neos will let you define more precise zones for the camera, but like everything have to pay for it. I need to getContinue reading “120/366 The Bird Table”
119/366 Windows & Trains
This window is part of the way along the Gosport High Street. When I go out tomorrow, I’ll have to make a note as to which building it is a part of. That’s only partially important. For me, it’s thinking about who has sat in that window since the building was built. The window looksContinue reading “119/366 Windows & Trains”
118/366 Is there a good photo here?
I know this is not a good photo, so please don’t compliment me if you were even inclined to. But, I am convinced that somewhere around here, there is a good photo waiting to be found. The building is White Lion Walk It’s quite long, I had to resort to Google Maps to measure itContinue reading “118/366 Is there a good photo here?”
117/366 Beamister Lane
OK, so apart from the Vision Express shop, and the electric lighting (could it be gas?) I wonder how close this street is to the way it looked in the 1800’s? I have mentioned Beamister Lane in previous posts. As a man, in the 1800’s walking down this lane was to put your way ofContinue reading “117/366 Beamister Lane”
23/365 Street Photography
We were out for a walk today, following a treasure hunt tour of Gosport, with a series of clues. With a dry run for the WI. We reached the halfway point and had to stop because the car ticket was going to run out. We went back on to the high street o get lunch,Continue reading “23/365 Street Photography”
13/365 A dramatic Sky
Monday I overslept, Tuesday it was rain, this morning even though slightly breezy it was dry and so I was able to get out for a walk. My reward for bothering was a lovely sky over Portsmouth. I love mornings like this. Mind you, I like a clear blue sky as well, but that isContinue reading “13/365 A dramatic Sky”
12/365 The Bird Table Redux
The bird table is at the bottom of the garden, I can’t see it from the office, so I miss out on activity on it. I installed a Neos camera and bought a cheap tablet to watch it. I haven’t quite worked out how to get photo’s from it to my collection – easy withContinue reading “12/365 The Bird Table Redux”
11/365 A meal out
We booked a meal out at a decent steak restaurant. We were celebrating two birthdays and Anniversary which we had saved up over the lockdown. We felt quite safe there. The tables were a good distance apart, and only the one waitress came anywhere near us. No something we will do very often, but itContinue reading “11/365 A meal out”
10/365 The Battle of Fallopia Balschuanica
For today’s tale, it helps if you are familiar with the lexicon of Star Trek, The Next Generation, for today I am relating to you the story of the Battle of Fallopia Balschuanica. Fallopia Balschuanica might sound like the name of a remote stellar system, but in reality it is a garden plant . LikeContinue reading “10/365 The Battle of Fallopia Balschuanica”
