It was the Cancer Research 2012 Harrogate Race for Life this morning. Going on 3,000 ladies of all ages taking to the Stray to walk, jog, or run to raise money and awareness. I salute you! You can see the other photos I took via photo.eutony.net/2012-race-for-life
Well, that’s it. My last photo in the project was duly taken on Tuesday, making a grand total of 366. I’ve decided to carry on, although I might not be quite so strict about the rules now – we’ll see! Some top level statistics: 366 Photos taken 100% taken by me – i.e. I composed […]
Unbelievably I’m in the last week of my 365 project. While I haven’t reached a final conclusion, it’s hard to imagine stopping taking a photo every day – I certainly haven’t run out of inspiration. The opposite really; there are still masses of types of photos I want to take, and there is significant room […]
I love getting comments on my site, and getting some discussions going. I know I have a couple of friends who read this ‘blog (or who did, anyway), and I have also had several “out of the blue” comments and e-mails to certain posts. I am still very sorry that these historic comments are currently […]
Just to do it formally – the RSS feed for my blog has moved, following the switch to WordPress. Please point your favourite reader at the new feed.
Well, few weeks actually. My Mum had a stroke 3 weeks ago, and while she is making a reasonable recovery, still can’t speak (and may never again), and has limited movement down her right side. With her being so far away, it makes it difficult. The younger boy had Chickenpox before Easter, followed by a […]
Well, that’s it – I decided to go for it. You’re only young once (and for me that was some time ago). My site is now run by WordPress. I haven’t got the theme entirely to my liking – the archive pages and individual post views aren’t great, my twitter feed has vanished off the […]
Finally made it climbing again yesterday – first time since September (and I felt it!). Rather over-did it on the bouldering at the start, and so had all but run out of arm when I moved onto some pitches, but I did manage 4 ascents, ranging from 5 to a 6a (which I was chuffed […]
Well. No. 2 is now well and truly walking. He still stumbles and lands on his rump, but now toddling around is his preferred means of locomotion. He is a complete climber as well. He always has been that way inclined, but now he can climb up onto the sofa and the futon. These aren’t […]
Can’t believe I haven’t blogged about this before! One of the things I came across a few years back were six word stories. The story goes that Ernest Hemmingway was once challenged to write a complete story in 6 words, and he came up with the following: For sale: baby shoes, never worn. He apparantly […]
