Welcome 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. 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.
It’s a bank holiday here, so this week the linky will remain open until 11pm on Monday.
Yesterday we finally had what I call proper rain here in South London, the first since mid-June, and it was glorious and much needed. I’m glad it stopped though, but I’m also hoping it’s not such a stranger for the foreseeable. I’m hoping that it will be like a well-behaved guest and know when to arrive and depart causing the minimum of fuss - well I can hope, can’t I?
In other news, the new coffee machine arrived ahead of schedule - so that was good news too. The troublesome toe continues, and yesterday I headed off to our local hospital for an x-ray, and the doctor’s prescribed another batch of antibiotics. The same ones as before, as it has improved with that but it’s still not where it should be - they agree with me that it’s not right, so it’s a case of understanding more about what’s going on and why it’s taking such resistance to being fixed. Hopefully the x-ray results will help shed some light on what’s going on.
It’s also noticeable that there’s a shift in seasons taking place, sunset is now nearing to 8.30pm (if we’re lucky) than 9.30pm and we’ve had some glorious sunsets in the garden, though we’re needing to add garden light to the patio table to prolong the evenings, and enjoy the calm and twinkling of the lights strung across the garden. For how much longer though, I’m not sure - hopefully for at least another month, if we’re lucky.
