This was a circular walk with a purpose. The first of which was to pay a visit to the Gosport Shed. I want to join The Shed, but if I am honest, I’m not sure what I am going to be doing here. They have a wide range of activities from woodworking through to theirContinue reading “1847 – A circular walk”

1809 – I like to know.
When i was doing RAYNET, several years ago now, I particularly enjoyed being involved in events such as the New Forest Marathon or the various 10KM runs. As part of my role at those events, I would be asked to count the number of runners that passed my post. In order to do that withContinue reading “1809 – I like to know.”
1682 – A quick trip in to town
I took a weekend stroll in to town today. There was one of the special markets on, which was nice to see. My walk was at around 0900, so stalls were still being set up, so I hope they had a busy day – there was certainly the weather for it. I was pleased toContinue reading “1682 – A quick trip in to town”
138/366 Street Photography Now
I took this picture in 2010 in London. It was a from-the-hip grab shot as I was walking along Oxford Street. I just pressed the button as I walked past her. Undoubtedly an attractive girl, looking worried on phone against a poster of attractive people. I do hope she was OK. It is, in myContinue reading “138/366 Street Photography Now”
137/366 Out for a walk
Yesterday, I wrote about being out of my comfort zone. I want to continue that for a bit (no more video at the moment, that was a practice). The forecasters were pretty much right, it had been raining all morning and was due to stop between 11-12, which it did. I wanted a change toContinue reading “137/366 Out for a walk”
135/366 Is it Monday?
I went to put some rubbish in the bin, and then put the bin out ready for the bin men, except it’s Saturday, and the bins aren’t emptied until Monday. I’ve had that “Is it Monday today” feeling all day, which in a way is a good thing, because when I accept that it isn’tContinue reading “135/366 Is it Monday?”
133/366 The iPhone12
I’m not sure, but I think this house is the vicarage for the Trinity Church. It backs on to the part of the Gosport Ramparts. OK, so, I confess. I have upgraded. My provider offered to pay off the remainder of my contract if I upgraded. I was keen to, I must admit. My mainContinue reading “133/366 The iPhone12”
132/366 The Gosport Society & Books
The Normandie & the Gosport Ferries caught with a long exposure. The Gosport Society have released a commemorating booklet, celebrating its first fifty years. It has been very active in preserving the heritage of Gosport. The value of the society was proven necessary in respect of the tower blocks that were built in Gosport (here’sContinue reading “132/366 The Gosport Society & Books”
131/366 Tuesday Morning & Rain
The Methodist Church on Stokes Road. I took a slightly different route to normal. It was quite pleasant to do that. The red streak bottom left is a car going past, left to right so I caught the tail lights. I wanted to talk about the rain. I took some rubbish out to the bin,Continue reading “131/366 Tuesday Morning & Rain”
128/366 Tier 4 & A walk
It’s not so much that this is a diary, it isn’t really. It’s my meanderings, which you are kind enough to read. But there are times, moments I suppose of history, which are worth marking. The last and biggest for me was being in Berlin in November 1989, when the wall came down. I’m notContinue reading “128/366 Tier 4 & A walk”
