Mainly Pic Spam.

Gosh - it's nearly a week since Valentine's Day, and I have a picture I took then that I posted in photo_scavenger but forgot to post here.

So starting with that one; S2C got me a card and a chocolate heart - I hadn't got him anything similar, but I had the day off work so I took him to The Hawthorn for lunch. I really should have taken a picture of my creole cod with stir fried vegetables as it was very pretty - but I didn't...

However I did take a picture outside the pub that shows that spring is trying to arrive already...( Read more... )

Actually, after lunch I took him to one of his favourite places - the local computer shop. Because, while in spring a young man's fancy turns to thoughts of love, those of a middle-aged man turn to thoughts of ultra-books and similar. Where he actually found a new computer desk that he really likes! After using a rather wobbly white metal one for the past twelve or thirteen years. This one is black metal and glass, more stylish, more stable, and fits in with the rest of the room much better.

And now for a few I took yesterday, just because it was a lovely day. It was actually cold enough overnight to require de-icing of the car to go to work - but very quickly it became bright and sunny, and although the temperature never did get above about 8 -9C there was no wind to speak of, everything was still; so it felt warmer as we are used to an almost permanent chill factor all winter!

I took one especially for photo-scavenger - the theme this week is 'time' - I'll let you guess which one!

( Quite a few pictures of a nice day... )

Today was a much greyer day, and windy. But at least yesterday reminded us that spring could well be on the way.
