  • Covid-19 Lockdown

    A collection of images, some taken for the U3A Photography Group (theme: Isolation), some taken for a seven-day twitter challenge others not. Enjoy … I expect to add a few more over the next few weeks, unless miraculously we’re allowed freedom of movement again and I can get out to photograph outside the garden. Here…

  • Framed …

    During Covid-Lockdown, the Cardiff U3A Photography Group has been prompting us to post an image to Flickr on a theme. One theme was Framed, but I rather liked all of these, so thought I’d share them all with your here …

  • The father of the bride speech …

    Good afternoon everyone – family and friends. For those of you that don’t know me my name is David and I am the very proud father of this beautiful bride. I’m also pleased to be able to introduce Jenny my wife, and Jan – Ross’ mother – who took on the role of honorary elves…

  • A new look for the garden

    I bet you thought this blog had disappeared … it hasn’t. Remember – I had a chat with Martin about using it to put up family videos that we could then effectively archive and share privately. So … with a wedding, visitors from Australia and Christmas in the New Forest to look forward to, I…

  • A Jubilee Street Party

    Just a short post to hold a couple of videos from the Street Party held in our road on June 4th. This is the third such event in my memory, and indicates I feel that we have quite a vibrant sense of community. Melbourne Road, Street Party, 4 June 2012 – videoclip . Melbourne Road,…

  • A Ruby Wedding – 18th March 2012

    What a wonderful day! Not only was the weather set fair but the New House Country Hotel was prepared and tables were laid for the wonderful meal to follow. The invitation was 12:30 for 13:00 and everyone we knew was coming made it for the start-time. It was really wonderful of you all to make…

  • Christmas 2011

    A selection of videos from Christmas Day when Ruth and Ross joined us. The “make love to the camera” is a reference to a photo I once took of Jenny in Southwold when some workmen walking behind her shouted out that message to the two of us. “Make love to the camera” Happy Christmas from…
