I’ll tell you about the photograph towards the bottom of this post. Today, was one of those signpost days that most people experience – I retired. I went to work this morning, but it really wasn’t a normal day. I had a chat with my boss, and wished him goodbye. I had already had similarContinue reading “1840 – It’s that day”

1824 – A lovely Sunday
I’m cheating a little bit, this looks like I went for a walk today. I didn’t. Instead we had a really pleasant day in. Breakfast was cereals and a Banana. The cereals are on trial from Aldis and not my normal fayre. But it turns out these are quite acceptable. We had a lunch toContinue reading “1824 – A lovely Sunday”
1817 – I bought a book (what a surprise)!
With Elayne away, in London & the house jobs done, I have time to do what I want. Only snag is – what do I want to do? I thought i might go over to Portsmouth, get on the next bus to depart and take it to the end, wherever that might be (Probably Fareham,Continue reading “1817 – I bought a book (what a surprise)!”
1810 – A Delightful Day
We went to Marwell. I have been before. but it was several years ago. The zoo is easy to get to, less than 20 miles from home. It wasn’t on the plan. but the first thing we did even before checking in was go to the cafeteria and have breakfast. As it happens, it wasContinue reading “1810 – A Delightful Day”
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.”
1739 – Hmm, Frustrating!
In Yesterday’s The Week ahead, I wrote about being a bit excited at the prospect of going to the car rally on Stokes Bay. We went around midday, we didn’t go earlier as we were expecting a delivery. We left for the rally as soon as it arrived. Well, I have to confess, that IContinue reading “1739 – Hmm, Frustrating!”
1738 – The Week Ahead & Creative Writing.
I think the first think that I want to commit to is doing more than two Facebook Posts this week. You might get them later in the day, but I am determined to do this. There won’t be an early walk on Monday. It’s a Bank Holiday, so I get the chance of a bitContinue reading “1738 – The Week Ahead & Creative Writing.”
130/366 The Story of Art
The earth mound between me and Trinity Church are part of the Gosport ramparts built in the 1800’s. Taken on Saturday out on a walk. So, I finished the Story of Art last night. I started reading it in October, so it’s taken me a fair bit of time to get through it. I haveContinue reading “130/366 The Story of Art”
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”
127/366 The Holiday
OK, so really, the picture bears no relationship with tonight’s post. We are sat watching a film, the main stars are Kate Winslett and Cameron Diaz. It’s one of the Christmassy films, you know exactly how it’s going to work out, but you still watch it. It’’s entertaining. I didn’t go fora walk this morning,Continue reading “127/366 The Holiday”
