    I saw a strange figure, then another, and then searched for more.

  • Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant

    Tuesday, May 22, 2018

    Three gloriously sunny days in the charming, North Wales village of Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant, to scatter my mum’s ashes and to meet up with many of the extended family.

  • The Itchen Way walk – stage 2

    Tuesday, May 15, 2018

    The second stage of the 4-stage walk along the Itchen Way was 8 or so miles and took a little under 4 hours. Starting at Eastleigh / Bishopstoke, where the first stage finished, and ending at the city of Winchester, it was a lovely, sunny day and a stunningly beautiful walk.
    I saw some large houses with long gardens down to the river; a small herd of alpacas; lots of glittering river water; two attractive bikini-clad girls swimming in the river (a picture would have been inappropriate!). A detour to climb St Catherine’s Hill near Winchester was hard work. Tea and cake in the Winchester Cathedral café was a welcome ending to the walk before catching the train home. A wonderful day.

  • Fire and Fury – Michael Wolff

    Monday, May 14, 2018

    Fire and Fury by Michael Wolff is a gob-smacking account of the shambles in the White House during the first year of the Trump presidency and of the unsuitability of Trump for the position of president. What a monster!

    Highly recommended for anyone interested in American politics.

  • A hazy Worthing

    Tuesday, May 8, 2018

    It was warm but hazy in Worthing today and not the best weather for nice images, but these three came out OK with some help from Photoshop.

    Saturday, May 5, 2018

    Breakfast, then gardening, then feet up with The Times and the Jumbo Crossword, on a hot, sunny day. Perfect.
