  3. Our updated business plan and strategic roadmap for 2027 and beyond.

  4. Since our Kelpies outing was foiled, I found myself home too early on such a nice day, so dump my bag, then off for a stroll.

    Now some reading by the old boathouse, to the sound of birds singing in the trees (sound up)

  5. #abandoned #BoatHouse across road from #historic Orca Inn - #AlertBay on #CormorantIsland in #BritishColumbia #Canada 🦅 The Orca Inn was built, owned & run by Chinese Canadians who lived in Alert Bay during the 1930s-1950s. I believe this boathouse was owned by Japanese people who used to live there before WWII. Gov't rounded up & moved Japanese folks to internment camps & seized all their assets/belongings.

  6. Still very fatigued, so again only a short way to the old boathouse, sit below the leafy boughs of an old tree, and read for a while.

    Could do without the electric sparks on abused nervous system & sudden cramps in hands, though, chemo side effects, which are less than conducive to holding my book...

  7. The bus back from the hospital dropped me close to Harrison Park. I'm very tired, rather sore & should probably go home & nap, but it's so nice outside, & I want some time under a shady tree, listening to birdsong. Then home.

  8. Been struggling again today, feels like it's taking longer after each chemo to try & bounce back.

    Heavy, tired, cotton wool in the head feeling, didn't get far, just a short stroll by the old boathouse & sit by the water to get outside for a while.

  10. Nice stroll through Harrison Park and along the canal.

    Paused to rest near the old boathouse, to pace myself and enjoy my book, but that cold wind was *not* conducive to outdoor reading for more than a few chapters.

  12. A few shots of buildings

    Life has perforce kept me fairly local recently, but we’re still able to get out and about within an hour’s travel. I tend towards macro shots, but when I get the chance then I quite like architecture landscapes, particularly HDR shots. Here are a few from the past fortnight.

    Hidecote. A National Trust House and Garden. The summer heatwaves have taken their toll but it remains an enjoyable visit, and decay is after all an intrinsic part of life.Bowood House, in Wiltshire. The Boathouse at Bowood. I liked this mono rendition, which reminded me of a pencil sketch.The Cascade at Bowood, a little restrained after the summer drought.Badminton House.

  13. It's my younger daughter's 10th birthday today. One of her friends has allergies so we bought gluten free and dairy free options. She couldn't come to Laser Quest though as she's recently been hospitalised with breathing difficulties. According to her, their #homeopath, FFS, can't figure out what's wrong.

    And I can't work out if I'm more sad or more angry.

  14. I have until recently been using a pair of #Aftershokz #BoneConduction #headphones for dog walking but the microphone's gone and they don't now hold a good connection. They're also frightfully expensive to replace. Does anyone out there have any recomendations for a cheaper pair?
