New Forest - litter picking week
Here we are doing our bit to keep the New Forest tidy. Most of the rubbish is thrown out of car windows. We did find an old silencer plus other car bits.
Roy and Sybil's Ruby Wedding
Roy decided to surprise Sybil for their Ruby Wedding. He 'pushed the boat out' and hired Old Ferry House, Lymington, for a week in which to hold various events. We were very pleased to be asked to join them on the Wednesday.
Lunchtime celebrations!
Enjoying the sunshine. It's not wine, but the usual cranberry juice.
Roy and Sybil - the happy couple.

Caravanning in Chichester
I know we haven't been back in UK for long, but we (I) felt the need to get the caravan out and give it a check over. We have only been to Chichester for a quick visit so with a campsite nearby, that is open, off we went.
This is Emsworth on a very cold day. We were doing a multicache which we succeeded in doing despite not deciphering all the clues.
We alerted the Portsmouth Mob to our visit and we were kindly invited around to Joy and Geoff's for an evening meal. We are always assured of a good meal and company.
Joy and you know who!
Chichester Cathedral from St. Richard's Walk.
Spinnaker Tower with a hairy fella in the foreground (couldn't find out who he is), the tower is 170 metres tall (557 feet).
These are my feet in the photo. I am standing on the glass floor!!!
Sue and I were the first up the tower and we had the whole place to ourselves for 5 minutes which was great.
Yours truly with Gosport in the background.
The Isle of Wight ferry coming into Spice Island, Portsmouth.
HMS Warrior in the foreground was the pride of Queen Victoria. HMS Warrior revolutionised warship construction, she was powered by steam and sail, she was the largest and fastest ship of her day. Spot the two aircraft carriers behind her.
Geocaching on Hayling Island. Another cold day.
Bosham from across the harbour. Watch out where you park your car here. A road and some of the parking is covered by the sea at high tide.
A short walk from the campsite on our last day. We were waiting for the awning to dry.
