Summer in King’s Lynn

I had little expectation of a bumper weekend’s photography on Saturday morning, when it was bucketing down with rain and there was no sign of a let up by lunch time (standard British summer day in other words!). But when the weather improved it do so with a vengeance, and Sunday morning was perfect for a long walk in the sun.

With the new camera being so powerful, the tough decisions were over which of my as yet undisplayed pictures I was going to give publicity to. One of these pictures was taken in Norwich on Thursday, but otherwise they are all locations that are within walking distance of central King’s Lynn.

I will have some auction items to show you before too long, and if you have yet to do so please like http://www.facebook.com/GreatAuction and or follow http://www.twitter.com/great_auction

Summer is here

Yesterday was a beautiful day in King’s Lynn. After a morning walk (see pictures at the end of this post), I set up outside on my little wooden decking area with cricket on the Radio, and spent virtually the entire day in the open air (for the first time this year it was warm and sunny enough late into the evening that I ate supper sitting outside).

Although rain earlier in the week had spoiled a lot of this round of championship matches  a couple remained interesting to the end. In the game at Lords, Lancashire looked like they might escape with a draw until Ashwell Prince was out playing a dreadful shot. This led to Lancashire being all out with a lead that they could not defend, and it took Middlesex less than five overs to complete the task of knocking off 3o to win. Meanwhile on the other side of the Thames, Graeme Smith’s first century in Surrey colours set them up for a successful chase of 264, which was duly completed with four wickets to spare.
