February 2024 round up
What I have read I felt like I had a slow start to reading in February – and I definitely did a lot of listening to old favourites. But then I must have read a lot as I ended … Continue reading

February is almost over, though it seems to have dragged rather, despite being the shortest month. I’m always desperate for January and February to be over and spring to start, but inevitably March ends up being barely any warmer or … Continue reading

To prove I do get things written/posted eventually this week we’ll have some of the fanfic I’ve been talking about for the past nine months and a review of a TV episode from December. Cunningham and Petrov: Bill and Allie’s … Continue reading

Turns out that I was right to guess that I wouldn’t write anything last week! Who’d have guessed? Stef has returned to the far end of the UK (blow!) so I can’t use her as an excuse this week. I … Continue reading
Monday #565
After a spotty January in terms of posting, I don’t think there will be anything this week either as Stef will be up visiting me. I have read all the suggestions for future content though, and have taken them on … Continue reading
February 2023 round up
Being a short month February has ended already! What I have read I have been reading like mad this month which is great for my reading goal, but as I have been devouring a series I have read before (a … Continue reading

I find myself slightly less baffled by the passage of time, as I know that February is a short month and have been willing it to be over. Before we know it, it’ll be March! The crocuses (croci?) are out … Continue reading
February 2022 round up
February has passed by pretty pretty quickly, even for the shortest month of the year. We are now into March, when the days definitely start to get longer, a little warmer, and hopefully a lot less windy! March is also … Continue reading

It is almost March now which means the clocks will be going forward, and spring starts! February seems to have gone by very quickly, even for the shortest month of the year. But beyond that, I hope that March brings … Continue reading

It is back to just me writing this week, and although I was able to come up with two posts fairly easily it has taken me until 11.30pm on Monday night to write this. If I’m lucky I’ll get it … Continue reading

As with every week I consult my online calendar to see what I have lined up to write, or at least what rough ideas I could choose. Sometimes (like this week) it is done with mild anxiety as I am … Continue reading
Monday #462
I’m a little bit late again this week, but it’s still Monday at least. I’ve made plans with Stef to watch more Malory Towers this week so that I can get back to reviewing series two, but in the mean … Continue reading

Unfortunately my laptop has gone and died on me this week. I think it’s the harddrive as it’s making funny noises and won’t boot up properly. I’ve booked it in for a repair today, so I will hopefully have it … Continue reading

We ended up with at least a foot of snow falling in the first few days of last week, snow that’s hung around all week due to the low temperatures. It is supposed to be warm today – up to … Continue reading

As with every year it seems, February’s weather is worse than the previous winter months put together. So far we’ve had nothing but rain and snow, and we’re still in full lockdown until the start of March at least. Still, … Continue reading

I was going to say ‘we’re at the end of January’ but I now realise it will be the start of February when this is published. It has probably been a miserable month for a lot of us; cold and … Continue reading
