Day 4139 (30/04/2021)

A fairly quiet and relaxed day in the office. I'm looking forward to a the bank holiday weekend and relaxing a bit. 




Day 4138 (29/04/2021)

Another day in the office hopefully work should be a bit easier over the next few months, with us all doing a bit less. In the afternoon I went for my second jab. 



Hopefully my wife will be feeling better soon and will have the second jab and then life may return to normal soon.




Day 4137 (28/04/2021)

Another day in the office, waiting for the weekend. 




Day 4136 (27/04/2021)

Had a very nice breakfast :-)







Day 4135 (26/04/2021)

The start of another week but still not feeling great.






 

Day 4133 & 4134 (24 & 25/04/2021)

It's the weekend, with a bit of time to relax. I tidied the garden a bit more, slowly it's getting back in shape for the summer. 



In the evening I made my first risotto in the evening. 





It was a mushroom risotto with salmon, prawns & scallops, which was quite impressive. 





On Sunday, as the weather was nice I thought I would do something different from the usual roast. I did some pesto coated chicken thighs, with new potatoes and some roasted vegetables, which was very tasty.










Day 4132 (23/04/2021)

Another day in the office but thankfully the week is ending, as I have felt quite run down and under the weather all week. I think I really need a few days away with my wife to unwind & relax.



Day 4131 (22/04/2021)

Another day in the office & on zoom.


In the afternoon we did some Covid tests for Children of the 90's, which involved supplying quite a bit of blood :-(

 


It was all rather too much for my squeamish wife. 


Had some nice vegi wraps in the evening.

Back to work in the office, with lots to do.



Day 4129 (20/04/2021)

It was going to be just another busy day in the office and on zoom but shortly after our cleaner arrived she was taken ill and we had to call an ambulance for her.


Thankfully she is OK but I took the day off and spent time with my family as it had been an upsetting incident.




Day 4128 (19/04/2021)

Another day in the office & on zoom.

Then on Sunday I did some very tasty pan fried pork chops.

Day 4114 (05/04/2021)

Easter Bank Holiday, with a relaxing day at home. I had a few bits to do in the office then started clearing the garden for the summer.




Had some cheese and biscuits and far too much port in the evening :-)






Day 4112 & 4113 (03 & 04/04/2021)

It's the weekend and I had a really busy Saturday, which started with a Costa drink & breakfast wrap as we had to pop-out to post some things. I had loads of work to do during the day and in the evening I made a nice meat balls with linguine and a caprice salad & olive bread, with a nice bottle of Kyle wine.






In ended up working through the night, so I was exhausted but it was nice to have caught up a bit. 

I made some nice smoked salmon and scrambled eggs on bagels for breakfast.


Then I cut the grass and realised that my lawn had not survived the winter :-(



Then did a slow cooked shoulder of lamb, which was very nice.
