Steel City


Later today I will be home
My second home
I will be in Sheffield
I’m staying in the Leopold Hotel which as I recall used to be offices and before that a school
Rooms are cheap, thanks to Covid.
And as well as rooms I’ve booked a table in a local cafe and a bar and another at a cafe for breakfast.
Each table a meet with friends
Happy days

    So self indulgent and so deserving too.

  12. To my mind, "Leopold Hotel" is the title of an atmospheric period movie, perhaps revolving around a murder, with at least one decadently jaded young baroness. Enjoy your time in a new atmosphere, preferably murder-less.

  13. That would make a nice, cozy townhouse for me.

    Have a delightful time with good friend, well-remembered places, and - as always - good food!
    By the time you get back home, it will only be a day or two until your new sofa arrives. :)

    Hugs!

  18. I'm sure you'll have a great time, John!

    When I read the title I thought you were taking a trip to Pittsburgh, but of course that won't be happening. Lol.

  23. I went to eat at a restaurant yesterday for the first time in 9 months for my birthday. Sister and I sat on patio table away from overhead fans even tho it was over 100 degrees. Being both Phoenicians, we were ok in the heat. It was exhilarating to dress up and be out and about...I've been in pjs and house dress far too long.

  25. You're quite the social secretary, keeping it all going. You remind me of my mother, who was the "glue" of all her friends.
