15 days – Day 10

Day 10: Thursday 2 April Back at work this morning and a trip into the empty office to get some paperwork. I managed to get quite a bit done with no interruptions until 11:30 then a conference call via Teams. Back home for the afternoon and finish off some of the work started this morning. … Continue reading 15 days – Day 10 →

15 Day – Day 9

Day 9: Wednesday 1st April. No work today as I don’t work Wednesdays. This morning I spent the time printing out some colour photographs. This is unusual for me as I predominantly take black and white images. The images today dated from 2013. I am gradually working through past work creating monochrome portfolios for each … Continue reading 15 Day – Day 9 →

15 days – Day 8

Day 8: Tuesday 31 March. This morning I had to go into the office to get another laptop ready for a home user. The office was freezing.

Day 7: Monday 30th March It was our first day back at work today after our week off. Work laptops were set up, PC's were plugged in and powered on. We were away.

Day 6: Sunday 29th March The realisation that today is the last day of the week-long holiday myself and my family have had initially made me feel a rush of depression. Even though we were all self-isolating, it was nice not to have to think about work things. Tomorrow its “back to work”, my work … Continue reading 15 Days – Day 6 →

15 Days – Day 5

Day 5: Saturday 28th March. Today we look back on a holiday week that we have never seen before – and hopefully will never see again. It has not been unpleasant, but plans were dashed. Today the weather has turned wintery again. There are flashes of sun, but the clouds soon got in the way … Continue reading 15 Days – Day 5 →

15 Days – Day 4

Day 4: Friday 27th March The last day of our holiday and it’s been the strangest break I’ve ever had. We have been blessed with nice weather but reading a book outside today was not on the agenda. It is sunny but cold. The temperature has been dropping all week. We’ve never particularly worried about … Continue reading 15 Days – Day 4 →

15 days – Day 3

Day 3: Thursday 26th March Once again the day was very sunny, but there was a chilly wind from the east which took the warmth away that we had yesterday. Mrs M spent the morning working on her laptop, even though she is on holiday this week. I made us a coffee grabbed a book … Continue reading 15 days – Day 3 →

Portfolio Update

I have just added another three images to the “Recent” section on my profile. As I add three I remove three of the older posts. As all of these images were taken in 2019, once I have run them all through the “Recent” section, the best of them will be put into the Archive gallery … Continue reading Portfolio Update →
