Post Comment Love 22 - 24 November

Hello there, and welcome back to this week’s #PoCoLo - a relaxed, friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any blog 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, comment and share some of that love.

Please don’t link up posts which are older as they will be removed from the linky, and if older posts are linked then please don’t feel that it’s necessary to comment on those. 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.

No doubt if you’re in the UK you’ll have seen pictures of or experienced the snow this week. We went to bed on Monday with it sleeting thinking that it was probably too wet for the snow to settle, waking up on Tuesday to realise we were wrong! And while it’s pretty, I was glad that I didn’t need to go out at all.

I saw a post on social media that said they preferred the second day of snow, and I wholeheartedly agree - the sun returns, it’s melted a little and the roads are clearer. But also, with the sun there’s also the sunrise and sunset. Sunsets are more my thing than sunrises, not least because I’m a night owl but also because we have far fewer windows on the front of our house - though it’s glorious to have the sunrise in our bathroom!

And so this week’s photo is the day 2 sunset looking across the gardens, and our neighbours Christmas lights, which have also appeared this week - and while it’s too early for me to decorate (or even think too much about Christmas), I’m definitely not sad about their lights!

Have a good week.

This week there’s been more ‘firsts’ - I’ve finally been inside the next village’s village shop leaving with some local eggs and cooking apples; we’ve made our first (but not last) visit to the Newark Civil War Centre to discover more about Newark’s fascinating history, topping that off with lunch in a newly refurbished and reopened pub with great burgers. Then as the sun was out we headed up to Farndon and walked along the River Trent and around Farndon ponds - again something new to us. It was great to be out exploring in the sun, especially as the forecast ahead doesn’t look quite so bright.

I’ve also got a new sign which arrived this week from eBay. It looks vintage, but isn’t and that’s ok - it’s destined for the garage gym, which is also home to MOH’s dartboard. I think it’ll look great there, though I don’t expect it will make us a fortune!

Have a great week.

It’s been a busy week here which has involved at least a couple of lunches out, a bonfire and some fireworks in the next village, a visit to the pub with neighbours and a new yoga class! It’s been nice to get out though, we tried a new place for lunch which we could get the bus to and the charcuterie was excellent. Getting the bus back was ok in the end but it was very late arriving, and both of us thought it might not actually show up at all - but it did, eventually!

We had a family lunch to celebrate my youngest niece’s recent engagement and rushed back to meet up with neighbours for a visit to the bonfire and a few fireworks in the next village over, which ended up with an enjoyable and impromptu visit to the pub, before a dark walk back home - and it was nice to have company on that walk too.

Then to top it off - and for balance (literally!) I booked myself into the relatively new Monday lunchtime yoga class - unbelievably my first ever yoga class, but thanks to Yoga with Adriene online I didn’t show myself up, hardly at all anyway.

Have a great week.
