Day 3115 (11/07/2018)

Another nice day, with me slowly getting back into work.

Day 3114 (10/07/2018)

Tuesday and a nice breakfast to start the day.

I planted the cherry tomato & chilli plants.

I went to a pensioners meeting in the evening but turned down the chance for a nice chilli & lots of cakes and had a tomato & cucumber sandwich sat in the garden before going out and took a box of fruit with me.

Day 3113 (09/07/2018)

Getting better, so started work early, not that it was much cooler.

Got some work done but still loads to catch-up on.

Obviously impressed by my growing herbs, my wife has bought some more plants, cheery tomato & chilli.
 

Day 3111 & 3112 (07 & 08/07/2018)

The weekend is here and I'm starting to feel a bit better.

We had a nice healthy-ish breakfast, with pancakes & fruit.

A quick look at my daily intake of antibiotics and multi-vitamins and cod liver oil things, which I'm remembering to take everyday, so hopefully I will be healthier than ever.

Then it was just about time for the football and England won, which seemed unreel from the norm.

In the evening I did a nice Jamie Oliver salmon dinner, with a few dded ingredients but it was very tasty.

I tweeted about it and even got a Like from the man himself.

Then I did a Jamie Oliver cream-less strawberry ice-cream which wasn't as successful as it ended up a bit like a half-melted sorbet but it was refreshing on a hot evening.

 

 

Sunday was a bit different as we were going out in the evening, so no time for a full Sunday Roast and a bottle of wine :-( so I did quite a nice sausage casserole thing (well it was a posh ready meal my mum bought but didn't want)

Then we went to see Chris Ramsey at Yeovil, which was very funny.

Day 3110 (06/07/2018)

Still not feeling great.

Still watering the garden in the cool of the evening. Impressed with how this little rose has come on over the last couple f months, as it was just about dead when I replanted it.

Day 3109 (05/07/2018)

Another hot day and another day of not feeling great. Hopefully the antibiotics will kick-in soon.

Had a rather short haircut for the summer, so at least my head is a bit cooler.

Day 3108 (04/07/2018)

I was still feeling rough, so decided to go to the Doctors in the afternoon and now I'm on antibiotics :-(

Hopefully I will be better in a few days but I shall be keeping up the diet and being good with no more biscuits & cakes.

Day 3107 (03/07/2018)

Had a nice breakfast, with poached eggs on mashed avocado on toast.

Back on the beans on toast, it only looks a lot as i finished off some soda bread with it. OK I also finished off the cheese & tomato from the Mexican but I hadn't had anything since breakfast. 

It was quite a result with the football as England actually won on penalties. Thomas watched it with friends in Bristol.

Day 3106 (02/07/2018)

Back to work but still feel under the weather :-(

Finished the Mexican tonight but will be back on the beans on toast tomorrow.

Day 3104 & 3105 (30/06 & 01/07/2018)

I woke up felling a bit better, still with a cough & cold but a bit more refreshed, and had a nice breakfast.

Yesterday I only had a bowl of cereals and an ice-lolly (for my throat) but am not starving. As it's the weekend I a off my diet, well for the main meal anyway but I will try to stay off of the cake & biscuits.

We went off to Bridgwater in the afternoon and then I made a Mexican in the evening.

On Sunday it was time for a new Kylie photo on the calendar.

I got a new pump from eBay for my wife's solar water feature, that seems to work better than the old one.

I did a roast pork with my attempt at a Jamie Oliver potato al forno, not quite how he made it but tasty.

Day 3103 (29/06/2018)

Woke up feeling like crap and spent the day not feeling much better.

Hopefully it kick-started my diet, new life style.

Day 3102 (28/06/2018)

Golly it's been hot this week but cooler than New York, so we are not suffering that much but is probably why I have been waking early.

Also still keeping up my diet but really feeling under the weather at the moment :-(

Day 3101 (27/06/2018)

Another hot day, with work to do. Our new washing machine arrived.

Then I went off to an interesting meeting about some future work which I meant I had to wear long trousers for the first time in around a month.

Then back to work, with my shorts back on :-)

Day 3100 (26/06/2018)

It was an early start with the window cleaner and then the old washing was collected, then time to go back to work in the office.

I am currently trying to live healthy for a change, well during the week, not weekends. So I'm not having lunch or and more cakes etc but having lots of fruit and having beans on toast every night.

Although my wife & Thomas ordered a pizza :-(

Day 3099 (25/06/2018)

It's back to work, in the heat with lots to catch-up with.

The new grass is nice and healthy, after my Dad watered it whilst we were away but my gardener has said it is now too hot to cut it, even though it is really long. But I had to walk on it to cut the rose bush back a little, as it was so heavy it was leaning over nearly on to the grass.

In the evening I watered the grass whilst they watched Love Island.

Day 3098 (24/06/2018)

It was nice to be back in my own bed but slightly jet lagged. I got up early to get some supplies from Tesco's, with some flowers for my wife.

And stuff for a nice breakfast.

In the evening we went to see my Mum & Dad for a few hours.

Day 3097 (23/06/2018)

It was a very early start as we were being picked up at 4:15am for our flight but unfortunately I wasn't feeling well, which may have been why I was feeling so exhausted.

We were the row behind the kids on the way back and as it was so early there was a lot less wine this time :-) 

 

 
Getting thru security back into the UK was surprisingly easy, in fact as easy as it was 4 years ago, so I hope that thing are now settled on that front. 

Then it was the coach back to the car park and a drive home.

   

Day 3096 (22/06/2018)

Our last full day in New York, so we decided to have a dinner brunch and ended up at The Westway diner, where Jerry Seinfeld & Larry David had discussed making a show, which eventually became Seinfeld.

The food was quite nice.

I wasn't feeling great, so had a chill-out day, whilst everyone else went our exploring.

In the evening we went for a Mexican.

We then went back to the hotel, whilst Lee went out to see a show.
