Cold day, overcast, 6c with a chilly 20 to 30mph ESE wind, not much to photograph in #Hythe although the Daffodils were a small splash of colour by the Military Canal 😊 #photography #ukweather #stormhour #kent #EastCoastKin

A dry, chilly day at #Greatstone which is a definite bonus and quite sunny although the skies are becoming milky this afternoon. generating a slight sun halo 🌞 #photography #ukweather #stormhour #kent #EastCoastKin #sunhalo

Just read 'Empire of the Sun' by JG Ballard. His unique Sci-fi books relating to microcosms of moral decadence & societal breakdown make sense to me now after reading of his childhood experience of detainment in Japanese internment camps. Great book should have won the Booker Prize 👍 📚💙 #booksky

An interesting #sunset at #Greatstone with another large shower incoming 😊 #photography #ukweather #stormhour #kent #EastCoastKin

It's been a showery afternoon with an pretty active thunderstorm to the north of #Greatstone rumbling away right now. 🌩️ #photography #ukweather #stormhour #kent #EastCoastKin

First hint of #sunrise this morning looking east from the darkness of the early dog walk at #Greatstone. A distant singing Skylark was a pleasant reminder that spring is just round the corner. Have a good day 😊 #photography #ukweather #stormhour #kent #EastCoastKin 🌿🦉

Just a touch bored with the constant rain of late at #Greatstone so got the art stuff out and began to doodle, the result, a pencil drawing of Smallhythe Place, Tenterden and a pen and wash of Fairfield House in New Romney. Neither that great but had fun doing them. #Art #Watercolour #Pen #Pencil

Having read Uncle Tom's Cabin at the start of the year I have also now finished the excellent Harriet Breecher Stowe Biography by Kenneth Allsop. I can tell you the original owner of the book probably read it on a red London bus in the early 1970s by all the bookmark bus tickets in it 😊 📚💙

Dull often wet sums up the last few days, haven't been outside of even hardly out of bed as both myself and my wife have had Flu for the first time in over 30 years (you start to catch everything going when you have young grandchildren) 🤧 #photography #ukweather #stormhour #kent #EastCoastKin
