Hello my lovelies,
It's Friday and I will show you what I've been doing in the past week and what has made me smile. Of course a postcard is always the first thing in my blog:
It comes from Russia (St Petersburg) from Natalia. I love this card as I love books and reading. This would be me, surrounded by books!
The stamps are the standard Russian stamps, but they are quite pretty I think.
I'm reading Precipice (Robert Harris) on my Kindle and I'm nearing the end. My audiobook that I have recently finished is Take No Farewell by Robert Goddard.
Then I listened to The Unquiet Bones by Mel Starr, about a surgeon in medieval times. He gets involved in a murder case and turns into a sleuth. I enjoyed it.
I have also finished A Study in Scarlet, by sir Conan Doyle. It is the first Sherlock Holmes story where Watson joins him and they solve a mystery together. This one is partly set in the USA and the Mormons feature in it. It is narrated by Stephen Fry. I love his voice. It is such an 'English' voice, perfect for this book.
What have I been doing since last Friday? We had a fellowship lunch at a house near me.
I walked over with my contribution. It was a 'bring-and-share' meal. I had made meatballs.
As you can see below the table was full of nice things to eat.
The man who built this cave house is a Scottish carpenter and don't you just love that window! It's like a Hobbit house:
That's me rummaging in my bag.
The rest of the week has been uneventful. On Tuesday's blog you will have seen that I've had a haircut. Yesterday I've had a massage (I treat myself every now and then). I also had another dentist appointment, so I felt I deserved that massage.
Of course I will try to find some funnies to put at the end.
In the meantime I wish you all a lovely weekend,
Lisca

That's a beautiful postcard. I agree the stamps are pretty, too.
I haven't heard of a single book you are reading/listening to, but I DO KNOW who Stephen Fry is.
That was a great spread and would work well for T Tuesday, too!
Love the cat/printer Venn diagram. I agree that even expensive wine is now cheaper than gasoline. I'd also like to know the story behind the fish. That second cat looks like a Devon Rex. You found some really cute ones this week,. dear Lisca.
A lovely postcard. I too would be happy in a room full of books.
Your bring and share lunch looks lovely., and I do love the 'hobbit' window.
Plenty to smile at inyour funnies this week.

Nice funnies today Lisca. How are you like Precipice? I am 3/4 of the way through Robert Goddard's This Is the Night They Come for You and wow, it's great. I'm reading it on my kindle. Thanks for recommending it. That's me in the postcard too. :) Hope you have a lovely weekend. hugs-Erika
You asked: "Great that you were able to meet up with your 'no photos' friends again. I know you do this every year. Do you meet at the same place every time?"
Actually we meet every two months at various homes. It used to be every month, but we couldn't get everyone together at the same time each month. Four of us try to take a trip at least once a year, though.
I just read two books yesterday and started a third (Ingo took me to Graff, the most dangerous plce (bookstore)).
I should advise him to drink, not drive, but he has 40km one way to/fro work.... Crazy times..
I too love the postcard, such lovely colours as well. The fuddle 'food huddle' looks fab and the hobbit window is stunning. I hope you have a lovely weekend and week ahead.
Hugs
