Post Comment Love 6 - 8 October

Hello there, and welcome back to this week’s #PoCoLo - a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any blog post published in the last week, posts which are older will be removed from the linky. 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, comment 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’ve joined us.

I’ve spent most of the week trying to get back into our relatively new routine following an extended weekend away. We’ve spent time getting things more straight finally getting the pigeon shelves which used to be in our porch on the wall in our new plant room (it’s a grand name for a room with all the heating and water gubbings in!). Getting the shelves on the wall has made such a difference though, as it’s a space I also use for drying washing and one which space will become more in demand as the weather turns.

We’ve collected some long awaited furniture for MOH’s man cave, which in turn has freed up some units which I intend to use in the cloakroom by the front door (an actual room for coats and such like, not the downstairs loo - which confuses people!). And then yesterday we popped down to Grand Designs Live at the NEC in Birmingham - it was our first time visiting the Birmingham show and we saw some new things, and some very lovely things as well as things which we’d seen in London back in May, so a mixed day.

My photo this week is another from our visit to Hidcote in the Cotswolds. I was quite taken with this most likely antique, and if not vintage terrarium displayed in one of the fireplaces. I know that if I had anything similar (though definitely more vintage than antique) MOH would be itching to give it a rub down and a new coat of paint!

Anyway, have a good week - and thanks for being here every week.

After a very wet meander down to Devon, and a stay in a lodge on the lake just outside Cirencester we headed back home once again via the Cotswolds, this time stopping in a pub in Burford. It’s certainly a very pretty part of the country with plenty more to explore. In our short break we managed to cram in a day’s walking around the Cotswold Lakes, visits to National Trust gardens at both Killerton and Hidcote, and a walk along the seafront at Dawlish, Shaldon and Torquay, and had a great time catching up with family too.

Post Comment Love 22 - 24 September

We’re off gallivanting again this week and have spent a few nights in the Cotswolds, close to Cirencester. It’s a part of the world I’ve not been to before, but it’s one I suspect we may return to. We booked a lodge on the edge of a lake and it was pretty fancy, and very picturesque - even in the torrential rain, which we arrived in. Boy, did it rain!

Luckily though the weather improved and we’ve been out and about exploring from our doorstep, which is where I took the photo I’m sharing this week. Weeds covered in morning dew growing out of a crevice in a wall, they’ve never looked so pretty…
