It has been a week of having to get on with things despite Helene and I having uncomfortable colds. I can’t remember having a bad cold for over 8 years. It has been worse than when we got covid in 2022. Despite feeling under the weather we still got quite a bit done.
Before our colds hit us we went to Lincoln to see an exhibition of the life and work of the Lincoln architect, Sam Scorer. A fascinating man with an interesting style.
We also went to the Lincoln Collection to see the tapestries of Grayson Perry.
Helene’s Mazda went in for a service locally and sailed through it’s MoT.
As a four year old car it’s getting a bit long in the tooth for my liking and might need changing in a year or so.
The Kia Niro EV had it’s first service after 8,000 miles and as expected there were no issues.
Lets face it – what is there to service on an electric vehicle? Check the running gear and make sure the computer systems are on the latest software.
Whilst the Kia was being serviced in Louth we walked into town, had a wonderful hot chocolate and shared a toasted tea cake then wandered around the church.
The verger was busy cleaning but he took time out to explain the fascinating history of St James’. We were interested in the paper sculptures which were situated around the building. Very cleverly done. Apparently the views from the tower are magnificent however we turned down the invitation because it was so cold and we weren’t feeling great.
Despite our colds we managed to get out on a couple of short walks. I captured a photo of a tree stump with ice crystals that have formed. This month’s u3a photography themes are Fresh Start and Simplicity. I thought the ice crystals might be appropriate for Fresh Start but that’s yet to be decided.
