Post Comment Love 22 - 25 August

Hello there, and welcome 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. It’s a bank holiday weekend here in the UK so the linky will stay open until 11pm on Monday

Please don’t link up posts which are older as they will be removed, and if you see 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 we’re pleased you’ve joined us.

This week we’ve finally made great strides in getting the garage sorted, and by we, I mean the Royal ‘we’ - we’re (and that’s me) almost close to ordering some racking which will help both in the shorter term and longer term to get organised and to finally get things out of boxes. Neither of us can wait.

It was also the week that the air base a few villages along held their Family Day, and once again we benefitted from a spectacular air show above our own house. I was pleased to see the Red Arrows back this year, and especially pleased when I looked at the photos I snapped. There’s a couple of great ones despite the clouds, including the one below.

Have a great week.

My impromptu and unplanned online break has continued, and I’m not sad about it. There’s definitely something about August where things are a bit more relaxed and laissez faire, isn’t there?

We’ve had a bit of a roadtrip this past week though visiting MOH’s family at the weekend and then straight onto Norfolk to visit my parents. It was great to see everyone as always, but both MOH and I think we’ve had two weekends, and so have been shocked to discover it’s actually two days later than we think!

My photo this week is the last of my tomatoes, which I thought looked great together and made for a rather striking photo. They taste pretty good too.

Have a great week.

It’s been another relaxed and easy going week here, both in real life and and on my blog with planned schedules taking a back seat. That said it feels like we’ve still accomplished much. I was at the Festival of Quilts at the NEC in Birmingham last Saturday - and wow! - my first visit, and definitely not my last, but so many amazing quilts!

And while I ponder those and all the posts I’m planning to share, I’ll leave you with this more serene and calm view from our village post box. I’d popped out Monday evening to post an impromptu letter, and couldn’t help but stop and admire - and snap - this view. Even though it looks as if one of the trees may have experienced some damage in the recent winds, it’s still a pretty perfect view isn’t it?

Have a great week.
