This morning Alex and I walked from Pine Lake out to Warton Crag. Once we were on the top the wind off the sea was so strong that it was difficult to hold the cameras steady, so rather than continuing onto the coast we came back!

Walking near Branston

For the first time in several weeks, I was able to get out for a couple of miles walking near Branston. The route took me out across the fields. It was a blustery day so it made taking some of the photos difficult as the subjects were moving a lot. However the bursts of bright sun shine made for some interesting shots.

Of course there was coffee. I found a sheltered spot beside some woods for a stop.

Today made using my titanium meths stove, folding handle, steel REI Sierra cup and the lid I made from the bottom of a cake tin.

Milicano instant coffee use the packet to stir in my Sierra cup

Nothing fancy today, instant Milicano coffee stirred with the empty packet.

This is a really compact kit for a brew whilst walking – all the gear I took with me this morning went into my jacket pockets. The ground sheet I sat on is the same off cut that I use in the door of my MSR Hubba backpacking tent.

Sunset from Lincoln station foot bridge

This was the view as I was walking home from fixing an internet issue and sorting a problem with some digital dictation software.

This view point will not be here for much longer as I think the railway foot bridge is going as part of the redevelopment in the area.


Here is another shot from today – which will be used on the Octagon Technology web site later this week.

It was a job for Les from Ideas In2Action, to securely connect one of his CCTV systems to the internet.
