Smorgasbord Blog Magazine – Weekly Round Up – 17th – 23rd October 2022 – Hits 1940, Kiri Te Kanawa, Angels, WWII Royal Navy and Treasure, Poetry, Podcast, Book Reviews, Health and Humour


Welcome to the round up of post you might have missed this week on Smorgasbord.

I hope you have all had a good week…It has been a wild few days here with a long winded thunder storm that raged for several hours followed by torrential rain and high winds. October making its presence felt. Hopefully it will settle down this week and we might get a little sunshine. It would be good if this also applied to the turmoil currently going on around us.

On the home front… we have decided to replace the doors in the kitchen to update and because after the redecoration of the rest of the house, it has made the current doors look shabby. With out decision to put the house on the market next spring we might as well make good use of the time to make the house as appealing as possible.

Welcome to the round up of posts you might have missed this week on Smorgasbord..

I hope your week has gone well. Nothing much to report here but I have managed to get a few hours in the garden as we experience some random Indian Summer moments. I have also made progress with my Elephant tapestry as my intention is to have it finished and framed ready by Christmas. My next book release, a combined poetry and short story collection is also getting closer to being ready for editing.

I have also been giving some thought to how the blog might evolve in the next year and some new features I would like to introduce. As you will see from this week there has been an emphasis on new releases and book reviews and I do want to carry that forward next year with additional opportunities for authors to promote their work.
