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.

Down the Vale for an hour, Friday 27.6.2025.

 Friday it was off down the Vale for an hour before meeting my mate for lunch at Morrison's.

The Coots are still mating and nesting, it must be this hot weather.


These are from an earlier brood, but still uncertain about leaving the nest to go out into that great big world out there. 

The mandarins are still about but un-recognizable without their colourful plumage.


A moorhen strutting it's stuff on the path, must be hungry to come this close. 

Plenty of herons about.


This one had an itch 

The Little Egret was on the path about 12 foot from me, but a cyclist road past and it flew on the back of the pond again, better luck next time.

Canadian geese goslings, getting quite big now.

 Crow enjoying a peanut, seems to have a gammy foot, but managing quite well at the moment.

Today, Monday 30.6.2025, it was too hot to be walking around the Vale or the Gorton ressers so stayed in and did some jobs, then it was off to Morrison's with my mate, but it was too hot for a large meal so it was just a bacon buttie each!.

Back home the front garden is still doing well and looking quite neat.


The red edging for my computer drawer hasn't arrived yet, coming from the suppliers and not Amazon so does take a little longer!, still no hurry, might come up with another idea for the surplus in the mean time.

Well that's June gone again, I hope July is a bit cooler, at least Alfie is enjoying this hot weather...................................................
