  • Week 260 – February 28th – Not what you want to see

    We had gone to get a coffee and got back into the car, Claire said what’s that pointing at the car front window.

    I got out of the car and it looked even worse, something had caused a massive crack on the screen.

    You don’t want it to happen at any time, but we are selling the car next Tuesday.

    A massive crack on the window and were meant to be selling the car next Tuesday.

    Once we got back home, I posted on the Auto glass website and was advised someone would call back by 1pm.

    Of course no call, so I was then able to find a number to contact them and after speaking with a very helpful person, the earliest it could be done was Tuesday morning, the same day as picking up the new car.

    I rang the car seller and of course the sales person wasn’t available, not surprising with the new car registration out tomorrow, so sent an email.

    Let see what they say.

  • Week 260 – February 24th – Pot of gold

    With warm temperature and a lot of rain, manage to capture a rainbow.

    Is there a pot of gold at the end of it?

  • Week 259 – February 23rd – What a dinner

    Roast
    Great way to the end the day, Pork roast dinner, wonderfully cooked by Claire.

    What a wonderful roast dinner this was tonight. Shame couldn’t put more on the plate.

  • Week 258 – February 15th – What colours

    Another amazing sun rise capture today.

    What a sunrise coloured sky.

    I must admit the picture doesn’t show the full spectacle of the colours.

  • Week 257 – February 9th – Toilet seat

    We had been out during the day and on the way home, we went into Homebase, not realising that it was closing down and had huge sales on.

    We had tried to get a new toilet seat via Next, but both of them had issues with, so were returned.

    There was a 60% saving here on the toilets seats, so decided to get one and some other items as well and made a great saving.

    This was sad to see Homebase closing, as we had used it a lot during the pandemic.

  • Week 256 – February 2nd – Moon and Venus take 2

    With it being such a clear evening sky, was able to get another good picture of the Moon and Venus.

    What do you think?

  • Week 256 – February 2nd – Greenwich – Part 1

    As today was a clear day, we went up to Greenwich Park.

    It does annoy me that parking here on a Sunday is more expensive than any other day.

    They should be encouraging people to be out in the fresh air and enjoying the park.

  • Week 255 – February 1st – Moon and Venus

    This evening I was able to capture a picture of the Moon and Venus.

    Incredible to think how many thousands of miles away they are and we can see them with our own eyes.
