Post Comment Love 2-4 July

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. If you were here last week it was great to have you along, if you’re new here this week we’re pleased you’re here.

I’m struggling to believe it’s July already, this year seems to be flying past - though like last year it has its moments. Here we’re looking ahead to the delayed step 4 of the lockdown lifting, though have a few weeks to go yet. Not that you’d really know it as in our local supermarket and on our local high street mask wearing is a much less compliant. I’m cautious and while I am looking forward to the guidance relaxing, and to life having a more normal approach, the thing I struggle with is how to be ok restrictions one day, and still ok with less the next day. The already trumpeted “personal responsibility” is likely to be widely interpreted, I guess we’ll just have to wait and see, and hope for the best.

My photo this week is of my first hydrangea flower, which in the last week has developed even further. It’s still on the green tinge side, so I’ll be watching to see how it turns white.

I’m going to be terribly British this week and talk about the weather. Just as my shopping started to reflect the warm weather, the weather got its own back and took a turn for the worse. My freezer is now full of foods that could be barbecued, and so I’m ready for when the weather returns. Now just as we’re planning those colder weather type meals, there’s talk of a heatwave coming back. I’m ready either way!

I’ve even bought myself a small desk fan for my home office. I know from experience to buy in advance - leaving it too long could mean disappointment. One good thing about the warm weather has been a steady stream of home grown strawberries, which have supplemented those we’ve bought. Happy days!

After a fantastic week off followed by a whistle stop tour of the country catching up with family, and their 2020 antics which we hadn’t been able to catch up with until now, it was back to work on Monday and straight into three days of all day meetings. So alongside the mountain of emails somehow it feels like I’m paying for that week off. It was great to see my family some of whom I’d not seen since 2019, because of Covid and to meet my great niece who I’d not met before - she’s six months old already.

My photo this week is one from the Lakeland Motor Museum which provided plenty of nostalgia and packed a lot into a small space. There was far more than cars there, as these Smurfs demonstrate. I know we used to collect them, and I’m sure a few made it onto the dashboard of our parent’s cars, or we tried to get them there in any case. If you’re up in the Lake District it’s definitely worth a visit, especially if the weather is more typical of the Lakes.
