Spring Is Here

Spring appears to have arrived early this year and bum-ble bees are already out & about.

Moon Halo

As viewed from the relative safety of my famed west-facing front garden at Folkestone and taken on a Go Pro. A moon halo is caused by moonlight being refracted by ice needles that makes up thin cirrostratus cloud.

Meanwhile At Mars . . .

 

As another Rover probe has just landed on the Red Planet.

V.I.N.CENT & B.O.B

Ebay has come good with these collectable figures from the movie The Black Hole.

(I could have photoshopped out the stands but didn't have time for that).

I am Superman

 

After years of scouring the interweb, I finally have my very own Iron Giant figure and it is putting a huge grin on my face.

Happy 7th Birthday

 

To my very own Prince of Darkness, Jet.

"Well, that's another nice mess you've gotten me into!".

 

Had a mess about with the snow before it all go away.

Snow & An Abandoned Railway

 

It may have stopped snowing for now here at Folkestone, but it is still freezing cold.

Snow Day

 

Finally, for the first time in 8 years it has snowed properly here at Folkestone. I measured the snow depth during a break in the snow and it came to 2 inches (5 cms) or 1/4 of an Action Man.

Covid Folkestone

Walked through a near-deserted town centre to pick up a "click and collect" item from a ship and I took these photos on my Samsung S9+ for personal historical reference. First time I've been into the town centre since before Christmas and it was like something out of "28 Days Later".
