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”

9/365 The Pumpkin Fairy
We have a pumpkin growing in the garden. We’ve had some marrows in the past that got to a reasonable size. I wonder how big this will get? It is always interesting to follow the progress of these things. I had to do a little bit of scrabbling around to get a picture. I wentContinue reading “9/365 The Pumpkin Fairy”
8/365 The Morning Ferries
IT looks like they’re going to collide doesn’t it? They aren’t. It’s a very well coordinated dance. The captains of the Gosport Ferries are very skilful. They know exactly where and how to direct their ships. The Harbour Spirit here is just being lined up to continue the crossing as soo as the Mon StContinue reading “8/365 The Morning Ferries”
7/365 Butterflies Again
You might get two photo’s tonight. I had lunch in the garden, There were three or four whites. Of course I was rushing because of work so didn’t do a Big Butterfly Count. When I finished, There were still a couple of whites flitting around time to do a count. My reward was to findContinue reading “7/365 Butterflies Again”
6/365 A Rainy Day
It’s a thing that I don’t go for walk if it’s raining. Of course, I would expect your response to be “Well, wear a rain coat then”. I have a threshold – sometimes there is just water in the air, in which case I do walk, on the hope that it doesn’t get worse. IfContinue reading “6/365 A Rainy Day”
