Day 5904 (03/03/2026)

I was up fairly early, to do some work and go to the gym, again.

Then home for brunch with my wife. 

 

Day 5903 (02/03/2026)

A busy day, took my wife to work, so I had her car, so went to the gym at lunchtime.  It actually felt good to be going to the gym again, as I had been busy, so it had been a while.   

Then back home to do a few things, and to pick my wife up. 

We finished off the cheesy tuna pasta, then I was online with the University. 

Day 5901 & 5902 (28/02 & 01/03/2026)

Had a few things to do in the office in the morning, then we had brunch.  

Then we got ready and left the house to go into Bristol, to try and see some of the Festival Of light exhibitions, stopping on the way for a coffee. 

Then we went to Andrew & Alison's for a family dinner, with great tasty food , as always. 

Sunday, and it's March already. 

I saw my parents for breakfast, then home to do some work, and then made a nice paella from scratch, which was actually quite nice. 

With a tortilla and some garlic bread. 

It was really quite nice. 

Day 5900 (27/02/2026)

Had a few things to do in the morning, then we got ready and went to Bristol, to meet up with Sam to see a show.  But before the show we had a drink and some vey tasty little plate dishes at Bristol Bar + Block, which was really nice.  

We had the Steak Churrasco (Chimichurri sliced rump steak, Pico de Gallo salsa) - Garlic + Chilli King Prawns, with Sourdough bloomer - Italian Spicy Sausage + Mozzarella Arancini, with Tomato salsa, Grana Padano, rocket -  Salt + Pepper Squid, with Truffle mayo -  Chicken + Red Pepper Skewers, with Pico de Gallo salsa - Asian Crispy Beef - & Hand-Cut Halloumi Fries.

We must go back for a full meal as these little plates were so tasty. 

Then off to the Old Vic to see Mike Wozniak, who was brilliant. What a show, what a delivery, he had everyone laughing from start to finish but it would be hard to point to a single joke. Shame out seats were at the top, so quite uncomfortable but a great evening out.

Then home in quite bad rain and with parts of the M5 closed. 

Day 5899 (26/02/2026)

A day with no work but busy on my website, which was nice to catch-up with a few updates etc. 

When my wife came home from work we finished the chilli con carne.

And had some cheesy tuna pasta in the evening. 

Day 5898 (25/02/2026)

Busy a work and also my stomach muscles have just about returned to normal, so it obviously wasn't anything too serious. 

My wife made a tasty tomato & red pepper stew in the evening. 

Day 5897 (24/02/2026)

We had a nice brunch but I was really busy in the office with work.

In the evening we had some nice fish & chips shop chips with the leftover roast chicken and some beans.  

Day 5896 (23/02/2026)

Back to work in the office. Not going to the gym this week as I seem to have hurt a stomach muscle when I was away the previous week, hopefully its nothing too serious and not an actual hernia.   

Had a nice jacket potato with leftover chilli con carne for an early dinner, before doing an online session for the Uni. 

Day 5894 & 5895 (21 & 22/02/2026)

It was nice to sleep and wake up back in my own bed. I had a few things to do in the office first thing, then had a nice brunch, then returned the car to my parents.

Then in the evening I made a nice beef chili con carne, as Thomas was having his leftover Chinese.    

Also did a few nacho's. 

It was really tasty. 

I saw my parents for breakfast on Sunday, then home to do some work, and then made a tasty roast chicken dinner, with a vegi option for Thomas. 

Vey nice, with a chilled bottle of Prosecco.
