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.

Second week in July,2025.

 Monday the 7th of July it was off down the Vale, it was very warm so didn't stay too long.

This site of pebbles on the right is usually full of water, but has you can see it's dried up with the hot weather.

Watched this young heron hunting along the bank on the other side of the top mill pond, I thought I might get a picture of it with a fish in it's beak  



But like me it was out of lucky!.

Amazing, that the Little Egret is still around on the top mill pond.

Plenty of mallard babies about.


Mum giving them a few lessons on what's good to eat.


Here are a few Mallards that are a bit older.

Plenty of Terrapins on the top mill pond.

A few smaller ones on the lower pond.

From the other side of the pond.

Floral display on a friends bench on the lower mill pond, always fresh flowers there.

Black headed gull on the lower pond, not many of these about.

Then it was off to Morrisons for lunch with Chris the Singer.

Back home I thought the new electric bed deserved some new bedding so here's what it looks like now!.
Teal blue the colour!.


The computer stand I tarted up earlier was so nice so decided to go a bit further.


That's the top done as well.

That's it now as I've used all the materials up, waste not want not!.
Tuesday at the Bridge View café, they don't usually open on Tuesday's but they had a DO on so we were invited too!.
Learned this crowd come three times a year for their meetings, they must like it hey!.

Thursday 
It was off to the Bridge View café again and it was full again, there again I think it's because my mate Christopher was singing. 


There was another crowd booked in at the back but there was no reaction from them and I thought perhaps like me they were deaf, but when they were leaving quite a few told Christopher that they had really enjoyed it. I think artists like a bit of inter-action when they are performing as well.
My gang always give him a good slapping  clapping 😇 he's really good though, pop down to the Bridge View café to see him any Thursday.

Last night Friday I noticed the moon was quite lower down and a nice reddish colour, perhaps deflecting all the fires around with the hot weather!.

This is the joke section isn't it.

What's this government thinking trusting the French, with 700 million already paid out and the boats are still coming!, and the French fishing boats too.
