A heavy cold, now at its peak, has kept me indoors for the second time today, giving me the opportunity to focus on converting from Classic to Block Edits, and recategorising to Garden the following posts from May 2014, when I appear to have been more able bodied:
After watching this afternoon’s Women’s Six Nations rugby match between France and Wales I published https://derrickjknight.com/2023/04/23/droll-tales-26/
This evening we all dined on Ashley fish and chips, Garner’s pickled onions, and Freshona sliced gherkins with which Jackie drank Hoegaarden and I finished the Côtes du Rhône.
I hope ‘cold’ refers to the weather and not a physical ailment. In either case, your chosen diversions seem just right.
I do have one, Linda. That must be why I was ambiguous. Thanks very much
I wasn’t sure either if you meant you have a cold or it got cold outside. But I hope either way, the condition improves. 🙂
I have one and it is 🙂 Thanks you very much, Merril
Hope you feel better soon!
Getting there
Sometimes the weather is conducive to helping us complete other tasks 🙂
Indeed. Thank you very much, Dale
????
Whichever type of cold it was, I hope you see some improvement soon.
Thank you very much, Liz.
You’re welcome, Derrick.
My dear Derrick, we all were more able bodied in the past (at least those who were born in the last century????)
Sending you a huge hug
Thank you so much, Luisa
You’re more than welcome ????
Poor you! Get better soon. 🙂
Thanks very much, Clare
Hope if it’s cold outside it warms up soon!
Hope if you have a cold, it heals and takes flight away from you soon!
Either way, your indoor time of work and rugby was time well spent!
(((HUGS))) ❤️
Thank you very much Carolyn X
Yes, Derick, I can remember being “able bodied”. It seems like a lifetime ago now.
Thank very much, John
Sorry about the typo, Derrick!
Get better soon!
Thank you very much, Bridget
mmm… the cold weather is catching. Rain on and off here is great for the garden but it’s delayed our driveway repairs now for 3 weeks. New date is April 27th. Hoping for lots of Autumn sun.
The occasional cold and wet day is great for catching up on online demands.
Côtes du Rhône sounds like a German wine. Was it a Rose’ or a full bodied red?
It is a very reliable French red, Chrissy. Thank you very much
sometimes spring colds are worse than one in winter … but take care
Thanks very much, Catherine
You made good use of your enforced confinement.
Thanks very much, Tootlepedal
I tried not to laugh at your ‘Fatal Error’ Derrick, but Frankie knew I was laughing at your misdirected enthusiasm
🙂 Dogs always know. Thanks very much, Ivor
I have a special place in my heart for toads, and loved that photo of the one in your garden.
Thank you very much, Lavinia
WordPress is keeping you engrossed in a daunting enterprise. I have a feeling they should be sued.
If only I had the knowledge and energy for that. Thanks very much, Uma
So sorry that you are not feeling well, Derrick. I will add your name to my prayer list and pray that you are over this cold and feeling back to 100% soon. Meantime, get some good rest!!
Thank you so much, Jan
I hope that cold passes quickly, Derrick. Take care.
Thanks very much, GP
Hope the weather is soon better.
Thanks very much, Andy
You’re welcome.
Gosh, another busy computer day taken up with converting your posts into blocks. I’m sorry about your cold, I hope it gets better soon.
Getting there, Sue. Thanks very much
And the recovering continues..:) Hope you’re feeling better!
Thank you very much, Ribana. I am getting there
Sometimes you just need to take it easy Derrick
Remind me, Sheree 🙂 Thanks very much
