The Chequers, Potterhamworth

Celebrating Gladys' birthday today by going to the restaurant at The Chequers, Potterhamworth. I think we've booked a Xmas Lunch so it won't be Lincs sausages today. Perhaps a visit to Heighington Fair in the afternoon.

Where's the recession? Not in Lincoln

Well there's a recession, so they tell us.

Been going on for a couple of years - deep & entrenched.

But Where does this beast exist? Not on the streets of Lincoln.....as far as I can see. We've just experienced our first few weeks in the city and its vibrant and busy. There are some serious shoppers here.

Nocton Church in the twilight

Just as the sun was going down we shot some pics of the Church........2009.

I thought Nocton was a modern place.......

I thought Nocton was a modern little place to live, so why do the electrics keep going off? Can anyone explain. The UK is not a banana republic nor a third world country. So, why the interruptions to power?

Harmonica for Xmas

I've just put in a request to have an Harmonica for Xmas. Don't really know why. I've never been musical other than singing in the shower. Anyway - here goes - it'll be all blues and soul around Nocton this Christmas.

Lincoln Xmas Market, 2009

I'm thrilled.

Arrangements are in hand for a night out at Lincoln Xmas Market.

We're meeting with friends and touring the environs of Bailgate to savour some mulled wine and perhaps more. Never been to a proper Xmas market before although my wife has been to several on the Continent. She recommends Prague although very cold in December.

Wonder how the 2 cities compare?

Can't remember......

Did I take this shot yesterday near Mablethorpe or last year in Marienbad? Well, I may as well claim that it's Mablethorpe which will give it a little local flavour. Could have been anywhere, anytime by anyone.

Good things......

Good things can start anytime, so I'm starting this blog today. Perhaps my notes will turn out to be rather good not like the weather which is a little "Decemberish" if you know what I mean. Things have turned in the last few days from being temperate, moderate and well-behaved to much colder and harsh. The frosty coat on the car took minutes to clear yesterday and now its cloudy-over, grey and mushy blue.

Been to the Doctors at Metheringham this morning. They wanted some blood so being a generous one I gave them 4 phials. Lovely little Practice housed in a Nissan hut equivalent - but everyone smiles even the receptionists.
