I've not been on here for a while. We've been away in warmer climes and, to be honest, the creative juices dried up for a while. Anyway, hopefully, they have returned. Recently, we visited Maldon on the Blackwater Estuary, in Essex in UK.It has been a port since Saxon times and is now the home of several Thames barges that ferried goods around the Kent and Essex coasts and into the Port of London via the Thames. The mast of one of these barges can be seen in the background. The Jolly Sailor is a 17th century century inn on Hythe Quay literally right on the quayside. Unsurprisingly it is renowned for it's fish.

Christmas is approaching. Way too fast for my liking. I have so many things to do and too little time in which to do them. So this will be my last post for a while though I hope to find time to view and comment on your images. Meanwhile I hope you all have have fantastic Christmas and a happy and healthy new year.
