Posts about outings are usually unlocked - click the link to be taken to the write-up of what I've seen (usually with quite a few photos!).

22nd January: A tour of the Wallace Collection, London (locked as it's a long rambling post about all kinds of things ( Read more... )

It's the end of the week and I feel a lot more like myself. I really don't know why I felt so low last week - I suppose it happens to us all, but I've had a sociable week online and some interaction with people in online classes which has really helped.  This morning we had Pilates and Mr Cee joined my Advanced class. My Fitbit says I did 21 ( Read more... )

Mr Cee had today off so we've been busy doing 'stuff' today. We started the day walking down to the local town to pay in the Christmas cheque we got from Mr Cee's parents. The town was deserted at 9am and it was trying very hard to be sunny, but it was -1C/30F so it was cold!  We popped into the supermarket as we were virtually the only people in ( Read more... )

Three weeks of lock down and things are not about to change for a while it seems. Today the weather took a nose dive as far as the temperature was concerned - barely 10C/50F (yesterday it was 24C/75F in our back garden) and the wind is really cold. We didn't wake up until nearly 8am which is really unusual for us and after a late-ish slice of toast ( Read more... )

Because it looked interesting and I've enjoyed other people's answers under the cut though for those not interested - 50 short questions about me and stuff.....

Another weird day. We went out this morning to buy some new goldfish, but some of the places that sell fish only had a few left (presumably there's a LOT of new aquariums in the area LOL), and those that had some had only restocked today, so we couldn't buy them yet as they needed to be in quarantine for a few days. It's not a problem because we ( Read more... )

Yesterday we had 10.5cm of rain (just over 4") in one day. This is more that we should have in the whole of June in my bit of the UK. The railway station underpass between the platforms has been closed as it is flooded (there's a bridge to get to the platforms so it's OK) and part of the railway shut down last night and has been causing problems ( Read more... )

Thank you to everyone who sent good wishes regarding the drippy, sneezy cold that Eldest Cee shared with me. I'm hoping that today is the worst day, so we officially declared a 'duvet day' and watched the ABC Murders reboot with John Malkovich.  Did we enjoy it? Overall I'm going to say no because I do understand artistic licence to change a story ( Read more... )

We had a lovely weekend - Mr Cee went to collect Eldest Cee from the South coast and got there and back in record time as there was nothing on the roads! We've had a sociable Saturday with him, then Sunday morning a friend came round and we exchanged presents and had a catch up.  The rest of the day was spent tidying up the last few things and ( Read more... )
