Post Comment Love 8-10 January

Well Happy New Year, and welcome back to #PoCoLo - I hope you had a lovely Christmas, were able to take a break and recharge a little, ready for whatever the new year brings. So far here in London, it’s been a continuation of 2020, but on the plus side, surely things can only get better. For me, Christmas was a time to completely switch off, which wasn’t my plan, but it’s what happened.

It’s good to welcome you back to our friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any post published in the last week. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked and share some of that love.

As I said I had plans to catch up with my blog to do list over Christmas, but after a very full on last week of work, thankfully culminating in a very well received staff event which almost broke me, my plans didn’t happen and I didn’t pick my laptop up the whole time. Instead I immersed myself in crafts, which had been much neglected the past few months.

Going back to work on Tuesday, albeit in the same seat where I’d eaten Christmas Dinner I felt refreshed. But with the return to lockdown, the week hasn’t been quite how I imagined - and I’m sure it hasn’t been for many of you either. But we will get through it, and hopefully we’ll be closer to the thriving end of the scale for at least some of the time.

We have made a couple of changes to our linky, and some that I also need to note - my plans to catch up reading your posts didn’t happen, but are still very much my intention - we’re asking you to show more love to the posts linked up. It’s a small change but one hopefully we will all benefit from.

Welcome to this week’s #PoCoLo - a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any post published in the last week. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked and share some of that love.

It’s been great to hear of the breakthrough news this week on the Covid-19 vaccines, less so of the rising cases in London, and the very real likelihood that we will move into Tier 3 at the next review date next week. On the whole we’re not going out much, but it is the small businesses and hospitality industry that I really feel for. It’s been a tough year all round for so many people and there’s still some way to go I’m sure yet.

It’s been another quiet week on my blog, which means it’s been busy elsewhere and I’m looking forward to a break over Christmas. This week is our last #PoCoLo of the year, we’re taking a break over Christmas and will be back, hopefully raring to go, on Friday 8 January 2021.

Thank you for joining Suzanne and I this year, it’s been a year like no other, but it’s been great to have you with us. Have a great Christmas and New Year, and enjoy whatever you do, whoever you celebrate with and let’s hope 2021 is better behaved than 2020.

In case you’re wondering about my photo this week, it’s a photo accident that I love, which happens more often than I think!

Welcome to this week’s #PoCoLo - a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any post published in the last week. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked and share some of that love.

This week I’ve started to dip a toe into the festive season, most of it all work related with some preparation for an event before the end of the year. I think it must have rubbed off though as I think this weekend we’ll put some Christmas decorations up. It’s early for us, but as others have already said, this year everything’s different.

I’m sticking with my Portuguese theme and my photo is one from a wander around Lisbon in July last year. We also have a restaurant near us with this name, and it’s one I’m missing visiting. It has the hugest steaks, and I’d better stop there or else I’ll be missing it even more. It’s a small restaurant at the best of times, so I’m not sure quite how many people they can cater for, but I’m pretty sure it’ll be popular.
