Learning to take pictures with different settings.

  • Week 325 – May 30th – Goring by Sea

    After record breaking temperatures for May earlier in the week, we decided to take a trip to the coast at Goring by Sea and enjoy a relaxing day. 

    For the first time we were able to park in the car park and in this day and age, it’s rare, as the car park is free. 

    It wasn’t over packed, but several people went into the sea. 

    Had a lovely late lunch at The Sea Lane Cafe.  

    A couple of pictures from the day.

  • Week 325 – May 29th – First Rose

    We think it’s looking good and many more to come and, on my dad’s, rose too.

  • Week 325 – May 25th – Greenwich

    With a weather breaking record for the hottest day in May ever (34C.8 at Kew Gardens), plus the hottest bank holiday day for any time of the year in England, we went up to Greenwich and had a walk and sit around down by the River Thames and in the park too.

    Annoying that you can only park for 4 hours in Greenwich Park and no reduction in the parking cost for being a bank holiday which used to be the case for parking in the past. 

    Once again, the cost-of-living coming home to hit.

  • Week 323 – May 15th – Blooming

    Not been the easiest year for the gardening, due to the weather and Claire’s dad, but were slowly getting there and two of the old favourites are blooming well again. 

    Hope you enjoy the pictures?

  • Week 322- May 5th – Regent Park – Part 1

    Went up to London today and walked from Charing Cross station to Regent Park. 

    Never been before, didn’t realise that the park was so big and had roads going through it. Had nice, pleasant fun day with Claire. 

    Visited the Queen Elizabeth Garden.
