Post Comment Love 17 - 19 January

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.

My cold is still lingering, and making itself most unwelcome so it’s been another easy going week here as I aim to get rid of it. The only outings have been the essential sort, such as the dentist checkup booked many months in advance - that was fun trying not to cough, though I think we both escaped unscathed. This weekend I’m off to my very local Quilt Show in Newark, so I really want to be well for that - and to avoid any other germs that will most likely also be present.

My photo this week is one of the pretty frosty ice formations from our skylights - so delicate, and so pretty, but also so very cold! Thankfully though these appear to have subsided for the time being - let’s hope they don’t make a hasty return.

Have a good week!

Post Comment Love 10 - 12 January

Happy New Year and welcome to the first #PoCoLo of 2025 - 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.

And well, hello there! It’s been a slow start to the year here - partly as Christmas was both relaxing and at times a bit hectic, where we managed to see all the family, exchange presents and eat probably more than we should but also with plenty of down time too.

But also partly as just after the new year I managed to catch one of the many illnesses that appear to be doing the rounds, and a week later I still have the most rasping cough which I’d be very happy for it to go now please! I’m sure it’s not helped by the super cold temperatures (but no snow) here but that gives me the perfect excuse to cosy up indoors.

This week’s photo is one I snapped on Christmas Day as we walked home full of Christmas lunch, it was a cheery sight and a really good waymarker which we hadn’t spotted before.

Post Comment Love 13 - 15 December

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.

Our Christmas preparations are continuing, and gift buyer has come along leaps and bounds. We’ve also had a trip to London and bought some mince pies from Fortnum and Mason, saw the fabulous ‘Monet and The Thames’ exhibition at the Courtauld Gallery, and a bit more excitement besides.

Storm Darragh arrived with all the force they said it would, and it seems taking a particular fondness to our garden table and chairs, which it unceremoniously upended and dumped on the grass. We were lucky it was the grass and not the patio as I’m not sure the patio would have been so forgiving to the table top. Needless to say it’s now in the garage and secured more safely, what’s better is we didn’t get soaked moving it there.

Anyway, this is the last PoCoLo of 2024 - we’ll be back on Friday 12 January 2025.

Thank you for supporting our linky and our respective blogs this year, and I hope you have a joyous and restful time celebrating the Christmas period with your families, friends and loved ones.

See you in 2025!
