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.

First week in June, 2025

 Monday it was off to Reddish Vale park where I'd not been for a while, but had heard there was a Little Egret there the day before!.

I was lucky that it was still there, I'd met Nicky Irwin photographing the Cygnets on the lower mill pond and she said the Egret was still on the upper mill pond!.


Preening.

Only the one Cormorant on the day.


Heron on top mill pond, is that a terrapin there too/.

Yes, there it is on one of their favourite perches.

Another one lower down the pond.

The young cygnets are doing well and feeding themselves, eating their greens!



Where's Mum and Dad gone?

Then it was off to the nest for the afternoon nap.


Squirrels everywhere!.

Tuesday it was off to The Bridge View Café to meet with my friend Jean, the car park was full of goslings!.

Luckily I always carry plenty of bird food in my car

Today Friday, whilst in Morrison's saw this, that's one heck of a difference in price and its just as good.


Trimmed the large shrub in the back garden this week and while I was doing that Alfie was playing out in his pen, when I was finished and looked round there was Alfie looking out, perhaps he was only watching me rather trying to escape!. 
They are great escape artists, will have to watch that in future!. 

This week I also changed my side table from this 

 To this with an offcut from my headboard, looks better even if I say so myself.

Finished this jigsaw this week as well, it was quite difficult with all those colours.

Going to the bridge Cafe tomorrow where you can get it for free!.

So a good week so far and got a message from the bed people that my bed is arriving on the 10th and not as stated when ordered 22nd so that's good as well.
Another great buy this week is this small bit of technology, it's a mp3 for ones car and at 128Gig will hold all my CD collection

£11.97 from Amazon!, now I can listen to my collection in my car as well as at home in my jukebox.

If you really want to get stoned, 
drink wet cement!.
