1. Happy (re)new(ed) laptop!

   1. Thank you. How we miss them when they’re not working!

2. I’m rather taken by the shop sign. Laptop back? Restored? Happy?

   1. It’s back with a second new screen. Happy? More happy, certainly, but I’ll let you know for sure when I find out how long this one lasts. I am half-scared to close the lid which is not ideal on a laptop.

      1. Aaagh. Bring back the quill pen, all is forgiven.

3. Uncle Billy looks fun, but the saddest thing- those Lindt Easter bunnies. This Easter our lovely friend Marie gave us 2 just like this. She couldn’t go back to her family in Harrogate and we were in some ways a substitute. I miss her so much!
   And yes, I’m blogging again, whenever you can get there.

   1. Oh, I’m sorry Jo, but glad to have reminded you of a nice thing she did. She was a sweetie.

      It’s lovely to have you back – we’ve missed you. I’m adding a link to your new blog for anyone who happens to see this: Still RestlessJo. I’ll be over for a good look round when I get a moment.

      1. No hurry darlin! I’m off out walking 🤗💕

         1. Just as I like to imagine you.

            1. 🤣💕

4. No denying that the Lindt bunnies are golden. That golden light is pretty special and I also have a fondness for European store signs. We just don’t have those at all.

   1. The Czech Republic seems a weird place to have to get your laptop repaired!

      1. Exactly my thought when I was told, ‘They all go there’.

         1. 😲

   2. I like all branding, done well. I have a couple of golden buildings to share at some stage.

5. Great collection of golds – I especially like the sign. 🙂

   1. The sign seems to be the favourite and I was unsure about sharing that one because of the quality of the shot. Just shows not to worry too much!

6. Welcome back!

   1. Thanks, Eliza.

7. It’s so good to have you back! I sure hope this is the end of your computer troubles. This is a fine assortment of golds, and I must say that Uncle Billy is hilarious. He must pull in some good crowds.

   1. Thank you! I am still catching up a bit. If only I could think it would be! On second thoughts, it’s probably better to outlive your equipment. As I do not buy things just to have the next new thing, my previous model is really old by today’s standards. It works fine – at its own speed – for some things, but does not give an enjoyable all-round experience and can’t be updated to the latest software. I can easily forgive the older one that, but have a harder time forgiving this. The plus point is that I do appreciate the enjoyment of using this one now it is working.

      1. Old by today’s standards, works fine at its own speed, doesn’t give an enjoyable all-round experience, and cannot be updated? Now who do I know who fits that description? Oh, yes: me. Thanks for the laugh.

         1. I beg to differ! You epitomise an enjoyable all-round experience for me.

            1. Thanks! You are kind indeed!
