Sunday it was stay in and do the over due house work, washing and ironing.
The moon that night.
Monday it was off to Reddish Vale Park which was very quiet, perhaps everyone was watching the remembrance service on TV there again it might have looked too cold. But I was well wrapped up and had my two minutes silence in the park.
So under the viaduct, looks like they have been doing a bit of pointing here.
But was out of luck on the day and there was only some Mallards well up the river.
So went back to the big boulders and had a sit down on my carrier bag (must get one of those cushions from Amazon) and after a while along came some Goosanders!.
The black and white ones are the males and the ones with rusty heads are the females
Both are very nice in their own way.
So not a bad day really and then off to Morrison's for lunch and a chat with some of the customers.
Today (Tuesday) it was off to Portland Basin and the Bridge View Café, they aren't open on a Tuesday normally but they had a party on so told us we were ok to go as well.
It was a party of retired school teachers, perhaps on their yearly bravery awards event!, they certainly deserve one after years of teaching some of todays kids, though perhaps it wasn't too bad back in the day when they were there, who would want to do it these days!.It was also our mate Peter's birthday and the staff brought out this nice birthday cake, only had a candle for us three, they didn't dare have a full set of candles has it might have set the place on fire!!.
We had all had plenty to eat by then so just had the After Eight Mints and he took the cake home!.
So a good time was had by all, Reddish Vale again tomorrow, weather permitting!.
