Day 5544 (07/03/2025)

A busy morning, with work, then off out for the evening.

Day 5543 (06/03/2025)

No gym today, just more work. We had a nice Chinese in the evening.  

Day 5542 (05/03/2025)

Another day at work, with some yoghurt & fruit, followed by more Uni reports to mark.

Back in the gym in the afternoon, with aching arms.   

In the evening I made a quick but tasty salmon pasta.

Day 5541 (04/03/2025)

We had a nice brunch.

My wife's flowers are starting to come out and are look good.  

More Uni marking, then off to the gym again. 

We had some tasty leftover pork sandwiches for lunch and in the evening we had some tasty pancakes & fruit.  

Day 5540 (03/03/2025)

 Back to work, cracking on with the Uni reports, and back to my yoghurt, fruit & granola.

I went off to the gym when my wife came home after lunch. 

Because I have been busy with work I've not been to the gym for about 3 months, so I'm starting off easy but it was still knackering.

Then back home for a late lunch and more work. We had some nice pasta in the evening. 

Day 5538 & 5539 (01 & 02/03/2025)

It's March already, and still frosty out of a morning.

We had a lovely brunch. 

Then I cracked reviewing more really (mostly) awful University research reports, then in the even I threw a few things together and we shared a pizza. 

After several years of complaining of how awful The Brits had become, I officially became so old I refused to put it on, saying it would be rubbish, with no-one we knew on it anyway, and they would all behaving badly. Reading the reviews we had a lucky escape.  

Sunday I had to defrost my wife's car, then I went to see my parents for breakfast, then home to mark  even more University research reports.

I did a lovely roast pork for Sunday dinner.

With a very nice bottle of fizz :-)

Day 5537 (28/02/2025)

A frosty start to day. I managed to crack on with few University report reviews during the day.

Had a lovely smoked herring sandwich for lunch, but it meant we were to full for dinner.

 

Day 5536 (27/02/2025)

I started the day with some nice yoghurt & fruit.

 

Then busy in the office marking University papers, which went OK but I have loads to do. In the evening I had some lovely jacket potatoes with the leftover bolognaise. 

Day 5535 (26/02/2025)

Another day, and I started a new diet regime, hoping this works out. Had a tasty pie & mash in the evening.

Day 5534 (25/02/2025)

Had a lie-in and a nice brunch.

Then off to catch-up with Dave about Locate over a hot-chocolate at Costa, then home to do some work.  Had a nice pizza in the evening. 

Day 5533 (24/02/2025)

Back to work, catching up after being away in Preston last week. 

We had some leftover kedgeree for a late lunch.  

Then I was online in the evening. 

 

Day 5531 & 5532 (22 & 23/02/2025)

It's the weekend and I had a bit of a lie-in, then up to take Thomas to the train station, as he was visiting a friend in Manchester. Then we had a relaxing morning and a nice brunch.

In the evening we wert up to Bristol to see family, and they opened a 30 year old Magnum of Lafite Rothschild, which they had originally been given as a gift and was supposedly worth around £7.5k, so I probably drank about £1.5k of red wine, which was OK but probably lost on me, as we normally have a nice bottle of Pinot or Kylie.

Then we had some lovely food.

All very tasty & lovely. 

Sunday I saw my parents for breakfast, then home to do some work and then make a nice dinner, with some nice but simple goats cheese & sun-dried tomato bruschetta, with balsamic vinegar for starters. 

Then I made a very tasty beef spaghetti bolognaise.  

With some leftover chocolate tart from the night before.
