    Spray!

    Quite strong winds are making the passage into the Ryde terminal for the Hovercraft seen in another picture awkward! There is a lot of spray as it tries to come onshore!

    The risks in Football

    A horrendous injury to the Aldershot Town Goalkeeper has delayed the game v Eastleigh by some 25 x minutes. The player was taken to hospital and has made a full recovery. In a bizarre twist the substitute Goalkeeper was also stretchered off later in the game which saw Aldershot lose 2-0.

  9. After safely guarding the section of railway between Bagshot and Camberley (on the line from Ascot to Aldershot) for almost 50 x years, Signal F337 will be replaced in mid April 2022. F337 appeared in about 1974 when the then new Feltham Area Signalling Centre went fully live.

  11. A beautiful Spring afternoon at the Memorial Ground at Farnham with Farnham Town beating Frimley Green 2-1! The afternoon gets disrupted as a large Bumblebee buzzes into shot, obviously enjoying the sunshine (and perhaps the football too)!

    Diving Save!

    A Combined Counties game between Farnham Town v Walton & Hersham FC at the Memorial Ground in Farnham under the floodlights. The Walton Goalkeeper makes a spectacular diving save to keep Farnham out with the game finishing 3-0 to the visitors.

  13. The "Down Starter" Signal (Semaphore) at Ryde St John's Road Station on the Isle of Wight Island Line shows the route ahead to Shanklin is clear! A wonderful atmospheric shot of Island Line by night!

  14. About 4 x miles of the Solent separate the City of Portsmouth from the Town of Ryde on the Isle of Wight. This is the view across the Solent towards Portsmouth on a beautiful and sunny late Winter/Early Spring day!

  15. A rather bad tempered football match in the Sydenham's Wessex League at Love Lane, in Petersfield (little love shown!) see Petersfield Town draw 1-1 against Ash Utd. It's a cold March night under the floodlights! Petersfield are in red and are known as the "Rams."

    Mustangs v Oxford Blues

    At the Bisley Arena in Surrey (near Brookwood) the Mustangs in black go down to a 9-0 defeat against the Oxford Blues. Inline Hockey is played at Bisley quite frequently on a Sunday, with several games being played between 09:00 and 16:00. A very fast game, like Ice Hockey, but played on Inline/Roller blades as opposed to ice skates!

  17. Flight BA248 from Rio De Janeiro (Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner G-ZBJK) lowers it's landing gear on the final approach to London Heathrow Airport. On approach it flys over Windsor Castle where the "Royal Standard" shows the Queen is in residence. Photo taken from Platform 1 at Windsor & Eton Riverside Railway Station.

    2-0!

    There is more to football than the overpaid and Money recklessness of the English Premier League. Here is Badshot Lea scoring their second goal in their 3-0 victory in the Combined Counties Premier League South clash with Walton & Hersham FC. Real football played by those who want to play for the love of the game and not £100,000 plus per week!

  21. A cold January evening on the Isle of Wight, sees two passengers waiting for the train back to Ryde from Brading on Island Line. As part of major upgrade work on Island Line, Brading Station has been upgraded to have 2 x operational platforms again for the first time since the late 1980s.

  22. The Sun has not long risen and there is a hard frost on the ground at Aldershot Railway Station with Aldershot FC's stadium in the distance. A very thick fog descended and blanked this view out less than 1/2 hour after this picture was taken!
