Welcome to my new Blog



Welcome to my Blog.
My Blog is mostly about my hobbies, ie Model boats, Cross Stitch, Gardening, Days out and about, Lego Technics and Photography you might recognize the hat rather than me. My models and other hobbies can be found in the Tabs at the top below the header picture.
There will also be entries of days out with my camera, weather permitting of course.

Friday 26 April 2019

The past week, 26.4.2019.

Went to the funeral of friend Mary on Tuesday, on Wednesday took Pepe for his six weekly wash and trim which I'm sure he felt better after the hot weather we have been having, then it was back to Manchester to meet friends Jean and her lovely daughter Jaquie at the Windmill carvery.
This week also heard of a friend I've only ever known as Little Jimmy and that he had passed away at home and had been found sat in a chair with his glasses on his knees, which sounds that he had passed away peacefully, I hope so anyway!.
This is the post put on Facebook by the park Warden Daryll.
On Friday, I was invited to go to The Notcotts Garden Centre for lunch with Jean and Jaquie again, I'd not known that you could take Dogs in there,  you have to walk right though the centre to the back and the seating area is outside the back of the cafe undercover and fortunately it was a warm day.
I'd been to the Vale first thing and had a stroll round in the sun
As you can see the Chinese Swan goose can hardly keep his eyes open in the warm sunshine.
  

The Grebe still busy keeping his mate fed.

Plenty of terrapins enjoying the sunshine as well  

The common Gull seems to be settled in at the Vale.

Today Friday went to Daisy Nook and was told where I could see the Jay I'd been tipped off about
Though it was cold and drizzling I  finally got these pictures which I was delighted with as they are quite a shy bird.





So all in all a good week.

I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists somewhere else in the universe is that none of it has bothered to contact us!.

If God had wanted us to go metric he would have appointed 10 apostles wouldn't he?.

The trouble with being punctual is that people think you have nothing else to do.
