This afternoon I watched the last three matches of this year’s Six Nations rugby competition, between Scotland and Italy, between France and Wales, and finally, between England and Ireland.
Before then I published https://derrickjknight.com/2023/03/18/droll-tales-13/
Then converted the following Classic Edit posts to Blocks:
This evening we all dined on Jackie’s flavoursome penne Bolognese sprinkled with Parmesan cheese and accompanied by tender runner beans, with which she drank Hoegaarden and I drank more of the Nero di Troia.
You are on a mission! That meal sounds delicious. I’ll be dining on roast chicken and gravy with roasted baby potatoes and a crisp salad. I shall be enjoying a Diagolo Douro alongside 🙂
Thanks very much, Dale. A good meal 🙂
Both of them! 🙂
🙂
That sounds a lot like real work, Derrick. Hope you are pleased with the results.
Largely, yes, Pat. Thanks very much
More good work done! I admire the time, energy, and creativity you’ve been putting in!
Your meal sounds yummy!
‘Tis a cold day here…so we made homemade chili with a variety of beans, peppers, onions, tomatoes, garlic, etc!
(((HUGS))) 🙂 (Smiley Face!)
Thanks very much, Carolyn X
That was one more game than I managed. I admire your staying power.
Thanks very much, Tootlepedal
The top photo is so beautiful, Derrick! ❤️
One reason I love the 6 nations is when it ends it’s usually goodbye winter. Just would be nice if my team decided to turn up….
Despite the cards, England redeemed themselves yesterday. Thanks very much, Gary
I don’t use block, don’t know how it’s done.
Never mind, Arlene. I went to it when they kept telling us the Classic would go. Thanks very much
Good on you, Derrick for getting through all the backlog. Rugby is a subject that I dare not comment on with my lack of knowledge. I can yell out in support when needed an important attribute some could say.
Thanks very much, Suzanne. Your yelling in support makes me smile
You’re doing extremely well to convert all of those posts to block format. They must bring back some memories.
Very perceptive, John. Yes, they do bring back memories. Thanks very much
It sounds like a good day of getting things done, followed by an excellent dinner.
Thanks very much, Merril
You’re still hard at work I see.
I won’t get to the end 🙂
Sure you will.
As I said to my dentist recently, when he was offering me a choice of treatment, “It depends how long I’ve got” 🙂
It is good that you are busy and learning something new and dealing with the challenges.
Thank you very much, Lakshmi
What is the advantage of converting a classic to a block? I have never taken to the block editor.
It enables he images to be put into galleries and be enlarged by the viewer. Thanks for asking, Andrew
Good for you for persevering, Derrick. It will be worth it in the end when you can site back and say – I did it! – and enjoy the rewards of your hard work.
Thank you so much, Eugi
You’re welcome, Derrick.
Enjoyed reading The Three Scrubbers post. Elizabeth is certainly a jewel among siblings. Also liked seeing the signed photographs.
Thank you very much, Laurie
I’m happily still a “classic.” If they take it away, they may have to take ME away. ;-0 xo
Thanks very much, Pamela X
Always enjoyable to look back on your past posts.
Oh, the joys of moving into a ‘used’ house!
When we moved here it was my late brother (16 years older) and my sister-in-law who came to help with the scrubbing. I stayed behind at our old (modern) house to do a final clean before handing over to the new owners.
I was mortified to see how much deep cleaning was required at our new (older) house. So disappointing.
The deep cleaning was the same here – as you see, Sue. Thank you very much
That is a lot of ongoing work doing the conversions, Derrick. A labor of love! Your dinner sounds delicious again, as Jackie’s cooking always does.
Thank you very much, Lavinia
Lavinia’s correct! I am profoundly impressed at your ongoing conversion works.
Thank you so much, Sheree
A tedious job! I really admire your consistency!
Thank you very much, Ribana
