Post Comment Love 5 - 7 June

Hello there, 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.

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.

It was my birthday last week and we headed into Newark to try a new to us steak restaurant which we’d heard good things about. I do love a good steak, so my birthday celebrations almost always involve steak in some way - and it was great to find a fantastic steakhouse so close to home, which is not only closer, but also better value than a trip down to London.

We got there early to check out the pub downstairs, which we’d also not made it along to until then. That too got the thumbs up from us, and I especially loved the decor with the walls full of murals, this one was my view for our pre-dinner drink. I love the orchid on the fireplace too!

Have a great week.

Well in shocking news it didn’t rain on the bank holiday, and the forecasts were correct. It was hot, record breakingly hot. We spent the weekend hosting family, and being in the garden using the barbecue was absolutely fabulous. It was warm but not uncomfortably so, that came as the bank holiday drew on and the following day, which was unbearably warm even indoors.

And then came the storm, which I’m sure at some point included hailstones. It rumbled on for a bit, the new road through the village seemed to foam a bit at its first introduction to heavy rain, but thankfully the gutters were able to deal with the deluge.

It’s a strange old world though isn’t it, today as I write this it’s 10 degrees cooler than it has been - and yet, that temperature is what we’d usually refer to as hot!

Have a great week.

MY ROSES ARE MAKING THE MOST OF THE WARMER WEATHER THOUGH

It’s another bank holiday weekend here in the UK, so the linky will stay open until Monday evening so there’s more time to link up - and if the weather forecast is correct, it’s going to be a scorcher.

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.

There’s been a lot more gardening, and with MOH on what he’s calling ‘light duties’ the grass cutting has fallen to me. It’s been a long time since I last cut the grass, in fact it was before MOH and I got together. But I have now cut the grass twice and apparently I’ve passed my ‘beginner’s grass cutting’ qualification. I think this meant that I was allowed to progress to strimming the edges, though had I known then maybe I’d have failed on purpose!

So it seems appropriate for my picture this week to be our garden wheelie bin full of mostly grass, and approximately the third that isn’t grass is weeds that were growing in the grass and needed to be weeded out before any grass cutting could take place.

Have a great week, and don’t forget the sunscreen.
