Post Comment Love 11-13 February

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.

We spent the weekend in Norfolk visiting my parents, and while the weather wasn’t great - it’s February after all - we did manage to get out and about a bit. A visit to my all time favourite Norfolk town, Holt for a short bracing wander around the shops and a meal out Saturday evening. Then on Sunday we made a visit to the farm shop where dad bought me some daffodils. By Tuesday they were fully out, spreading their cheer.

We headed over to Canary Wharf in the week and while we were there had dinner in Seoul Bird which serves Korean Fried Chicken, and it was so tasty. A bit greasy for me to eat too much, and of course we over ordered but what was really good was the supply of take out boxes and bags available for people just like us, and there were quite a few that we saw too. We made good use of it the next day for lunch, which as you’ll know from previous posts, home lunches can be more challenging than evening meals, though we’re getting much better - and leftovers is becoming quite a lunch staple.

This week I’m sharing a photo of my mug because we had a bit of a tea bag crisis here this week. Somehow - probably through drinking too much tea - we were down to our last tea bag. Shocking news for a working day that needed to resolved pretty quickly, and was with a quick trip to our local M&S. It made my team mates laugh, but we have got into a habit of drinking perhaps more tea than usual, so it’s easy to see how it happened.

Post Comment Love 28-30 January

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 has been one of the greyest weeks I think I can remember, and it really does affect your mood doesn’t it? Even MOH didn’t manage to make it out on his bike because it was just “too grey” - he’s hoping to make up for that with sun today. It’s been a week of getting things done, deliveries received and I think our post might be returning to more normal levels. I’m still waiting on delivery that I ordered over Christmas, and I’m hoping it’ll arrive soon. We went out for Sunday lunch in our local pub, and while it was busier than we expected, it was ok. It was good to be out if I’m honest, and a roast dinner cooked by someone else is always good.

My work hours are becoming the most sensible they have been for a while, and I hope I’m not tempting fate by saying that! It’s meant that evenings have felt more relaxed than they have been, and I’ve spent some of that time editing old photos. And I’ve found some gems, like this one from our trip to Portugal back in 2019. I’ll share more shortly but this was part-way through a day’s walk, where we looked around what was a monastery. Well we looked around the grounds and admired the tiling, I remember there were two large dogs at one point, which weren’t really the friendly sort. But it was worth it for the tiles, and thankfully MOH fancied himself as a bit of a dog whisperer, so I was able to sneak back past.
