# At the old house doing some packing, sorting out old rubbish, and re-plastering a wall that got damp a while back and started to crumble.

It's weird being back, it just doesn't feel like home any more. It's still ours but it just doesn't feel like it's ours. It's almost like entering a dead relative's house knowing that you have to clear out the remnants of their life but it's our lives that have moved on and our things that we are choosing whether to keep or not.

We have to be here, and will have to come back a number of times yet, but I can't help but feel I'd rather just lock the door, not look back and never return.

# Over the past few days or so I've binge watched the whole of seasons 1 & 2 of Cobra Kai and absolutely loved it. I was surprised at how well written it was (while still having its share of 80's cheese) and the depth it builds as the episodes roll by.

The show makes no apology for calling on the original movie and is actually all the better for doing so, it really takes you back to being a kid.

I must confess to welling up slightly with the references to Mr Miyagi and I that's testament to both the impact of the original movies and how well the series has built on them Can't wait for season 3 next year.
