Breakfast at Billie's The best breakfast in Brighton can be found in Billie's cafe. It's too big to eat for one person, well for me at least, so we usually ask for two plates and an extra egg! It consists

Went for a walk on the South Downs this afternoon. It was beautifully sunny when we set out but as you can see from the photograph the weather was very changeable. At one point we got caught in a heavy

Hove Snow a Rare Sight I took this photograph a year ago and wrote . . . This was the scene from my window this morning. Yep. It was snowing! A wintry wonderland cityscape right on my doorstep. It started

Most of my steps today were from running around after my two grandchildren. It's always a busy time. Here's a picture of a farm we built together We also went down to the beach and the walked to the coffee

It was a horrible dank and misty day today although it was a lot warmer than it has been recently. So I thought I'd post a petty summer flower photography I took last year in contrast My steps today were

Note To Self - Get Knitting One of the things I love about Steemit is how it has made me look more closely at the world and consider things I haven't considered in a long time. When I was out and about

Still Going Strong 100 Years On Finally a picture that didn't need a monomad filter! I shot this photo this weekend when I was taking pics of the local buildings. These steps are part of the Brunswick

I walked into town today to run some errands. Walking home into the wind it was bitterly cold. I was surprised it wasn't snowing. I was also surprised to see this olive tree growing next to someone's front

Most Bizarre Game Ever When I want to get away from the Steem Monsters bots dominating the Silver or Gold Leagues I'll start to play a Level 1 account in the hope that there won't be any there. This afternoon

Red Now But For How Long? 😁 In response to a post of ideas of things to photograph other than flowers, I decided to post this piece of unfinished art and it's story. I've posted a few of my finished

Most of my steps today were from walking to my friend's house and back. She lives in the Brighton side of town and I live in the Hove end so it's a decent walk. The weather was pretty gross though. Grey
