Day 5705 & 5706 (16 & 17/08/2025)

Time for a relaxing weekend, starting with a nice brunch.

This weeks flowers for my wife, along with some tasty donuts for our afternoon tea.

In the evening I did hotdogs for dinner, along with some very nice parmesan and rosemary fries. 

On Sunday I saw my parents for breakfast, then did a few things at home, before making a nice salad for dinner in the evening, along with a very refreshing jug of Pimms.  

I may have given myself a slightly too short hair cut.

Day 5704 (15/08/2025)

Back in the office, with a few things to do. 

In the evening I made a prawn and lobster bisque risotto, which I was inspired to make after seeing it on a menu at a restaurant we couldn't get in to.

It was tasty but not as opulent as I was hoping.  

Day 5703 (14/08/2025)

Thursday I took my wife to work, so I had the car and could go to the gym, which is getting a bit easier.

Looking back at the gym photos, my face (and body are a lot slimer) although, it isn't due to the gym. 

I'm still having a nice relaxing week, and have started thinking about writing again.  Had a nice jacket potato in the evening. 

Day 5702 (13/08/2025)

I had the car and went to the gym. 

We had the leftover prawn & coconut curry for lunch. 

In the evening I made a kebabs, with the leftover lamb (and a vegi / halloumi one for Thomas), which was really tasty but very filling, so I couldn't eat it all. 

Day 5701 (12/08/2025)

We had a nice brunch and a fairly relaxing day. 

In the afternoon we went out to Avery's Garden Centre, had a nice coffee, and shared a cheese scone and a slice of cake, which was nice, they even had Trivial Pursuit cards on the table.

We also bought some rhubarb plants. 

In the evening my wife made some very tasty Mexican fajitas. 

Took some pictures on some of the lights in the gardens.  

 

Day 5700 (11/08/2025)

Back in the office, very relaxed, as little to do, which is great. 

My wife made some meatballs and spaghetti in the evening. 

Day 5698 & 5699 (09 & 10/08/2025)

We were up and getting ready early, to go over to Iron Acton for a day with my wife's family, which was very lovely, with some very lovely food.

We got back quite late, and had a lovely day. 

Sunday I went to see my parents for breakfast, spent some time in the garden, then made a tasty roast lamb joint for dinner in the afternoon.

All very nice, but I couldn't quite finish it.
