Hello and welcome to my weekly roundup of posts, you may have missed during the week… since closing comments on some older posts that were being targeted by spammers I am also closing comments on new posts after 28 days I cannot believe the difference it has made to spam I’m getting withdrawal symptoms-smile-I have had 3 this week and they weren’t really spamming rather people link dropping although to me they get classed as spam the RV spammers and the others have disappeared I’m sure they will come back and I will repeat the same exercise on the posts they target but for the moment they are gone it’s great…therefore if you wish to comment on an older post please make your comment on a new post and I will pick it up and respond x
Monday Musings.
Welcome to Monday Musings where my muse pinpoints anything exciting or unusual I have read during the last week, or seen or experienced it could be anything…Firstly though I would like to thank everyone for their kind words and encouragement as well as a caution on my venture into jogging…well the update is that I pushed myself too much too soon… I know I was beyond stupid and have been berating myself for being so stupid and am now having to rest up as I tried to work through it and that didn’t work…I am so cross with myself and mad as I really enjoyed it…too much too soon a lesson learnt…
I love A-Z’s but that’s no surprise as I have written a few series plus my current one is an A-Z of countries and their cuisines…This A-Z is my very first A-Z and I am very grateful to Sally for repeating it on Smorgasbord Magazine…Thank you Sally you are a star it is also lovely for me to have a recap on what I wrote a few years ago now…This week the letter O for Olives, Octopus, Onions and more was featured over at Smorgasbord Magazine.
Thursday Thoughts!
I think Thursday Thoughts has taken the place of Saturday Snippets where I go where my thoughts take me or something prompts me…this week there were “The Three Stooges”, Origami, Popcorn and tin cans plus various other topics…and everyone’s favourite a recipe of sorts for Shepherds Pie…
Alzheimer’s and Dementia is subject close to my heart…they are terrible diseases that can strike anyone and sometimes not just the old…however there are steps we can take both dietary and physicaly that can give us a fair chance of not being one of the ever-increasing statistics…
Please if you are like me and want to try and stop this disease from knocking at your door then head over to Smorgabord by clicking the highlighted link below…
Thank you for joining me today as always I look forward to your comments and thank you for your shares…I hope that wherever you are you are having a great Sunday if it is sunny..enjoy and if it’s cold, frosty, foggy or snowing stay warm and stay on your feet if you venture outside…

Shared your roundup on Twitter, Carol. I hope you are having a good Sunday. It is still -6 C here at 9:30am, and we have freezing fog to contend with too!
Best wishes, Pete. x

Thank you, Pete…It doesn’t sound ideal weather time to snuggle up around the fire with a hot drink…I don’t envy you talking Ollie out this time of year x

I prefer it to rain. Blue skies mostly, and crunchy ground underfoot. 🙂 x

It most certainly does sound a tad better than rain , Pete x
