Ponderings

Walking back from the train station at the end of a working day is very likely going to become my pondering time.  Ideas for my writing and my blog posts no doubt.  That is as long as I am not getting drowned in the rain or distracted by a bird or some other wildlife.  Today, I [...]

Lazy Day

It has been a bit of a lazy Sunday, not much happening.  Did go for a walk to Crowthorne and back, which was about the extent of my energy.  I think the last week has caught up with me a bit, but I am re-charging for the week ahead hopefully :0)
I have done a bit [...]

Rhodes – Greece

It didn’t take me long, to track down the internet cafe in Rhodes, Greece, right next door to the Hotel Cosmopolitan, where I am staying for the week.  Flight over was different, they ran out of meals and there was chaos as everyone had to raid the snack cart – I had chips and chocolates [...]
