Shopping and sandwiches












My lunchtime walk takes in the shops around Bargate, East Street, Above Bar Street and Lower West Quay. I walk right past all of them except HMV. To finish I lie in the sun in Mayflower Park and nibble a sandwich.

Beaulieu









Beaulieu is an ancient village about 8 minutes drive from me. Nice old cottages, ponys and donkeys wandering the streets at will. It looks picturesque but the residents have no privacy at all, their paradise is overrun by tourists all summer long. I picked a weekday evening about 8:30pm to visit with my camera.

The forest





Took a walk in deep in the forest last night. It was heavy dusk as I made my way back to the car park. I've walked here in the dark when I miscalculated the time - not to be recommended. It gets darker than one can imagine.

Racing home



I walked for an hour along the beach to watch the evening sky then leapt aboard the mighty rocket and blasted home, chasing the setting sun.
