Yarmouth: fronts
Wednesday 21st of March 2018
A month ago, Zoe and I needed a break: work was stressing me out, and Zoe was having to take on all the housework duties. Since Emily was only 4 months old at the time, we didn’t want to go far, so settled on Great Yarmouth, since it’s only a short drive from where we live. February is not exactly tourist season, what with the freezing wind and frequent gloomy wet weather, but the chance to relax …

The sea and the sun
Saturday 27th of January 2018
My parents are staying at our house while the purchase of their new house grinds along. I don’t get on well with them and have been feeling stressed lately, so Zoe and I took Em out for breakfast at the Lighthouse Café in Lowestoft, then for a walk along the seafront.

The forecast yesterday threatened rain but fortunately it was one of those glori…

I ended up going twice, but the first was a bit of a let-down as the weather was dull and grey. Fortunately the second time was more successful, with lovely low winter sun for the majority of the outing. Fuji X-E1, XF 60/2.4, XF 35/1.4 and XF 14/2.8 beach path over pebbl…

Lowestoft town centre, December
Friday 30th of December 2016
It feels a lot less than two years since a previous “winter sun” post, my goodness how time flies. These are all from a couple of days ago when I visited town to arrange a new pair of glasses, since I lost one of the lenses in my old pair and besides, I suspected my eyesight had got worse (confirmed). New pair won’t arrive for up to two weeks though, as I wanted the lenses that help when working…
