Unusual Sunday

It's my MIL's birthday today so one of my SIL's is having a get together this afternoon which MIL will love. I'm not so good in crowds even though I've known them all for many years so I'm always a little nervous.

Hope your DH only hits the targets

It's called a hangover Bags - no, don't ask..........

Oh dear Gally Hope you haven't been the Tiger who came to tea and drunk all the wine in the fridge
Cold and sunny here, just going to collect the eggs and then have a cooked breakfast. Try it Gally

He will, baubles. He's on his way to being a Master Bowman. Hope your MiL party goes well. You were fine in the GN crowd at gally's

gally, . Cooked breakfast sounds like a good idea. I'm going to ask anyway.... not leftovers from last Wednesday by any chance?

DD1's birthday today - feel very blessed to have been her mum for the past 32 years.... a family lunch out in Stafford with DSiL, DGD and Mr A.

How lovely, Janeain - I couldn't think of a nicer way to spend a Sunday.

Thank you butter

The sun is shining!

I'm going to do something I've never done before: watch catch-up T.V. in the morning!

We were going to have a family day out to Thorpe Park today with picnic and all but my eldest daughter is sick and not feeling up to the drive or day walking around so we called it off yesterday PM.. the younger grands were disappointed but we'll rearrange it for two weeks before they close for the Winter.. so its putting the garden to bed for the Winter for me today at least its a beautiful one..

off to see my dniece with my dsister. tea at a garden centre and evening meal in a hostelry. DD taking her advanced driving test today-hope she passes! DH off to Southend to do some DIY on the beach hut- lovely weather, he may have got the best bargain.

Glorious day here today. Yesterday DH and I caught the train from our village to the station just before Gally's village, and walked back along the Coastal Path to the nearest little town, catching the bus back home. Will go for another wander about today...maybe just through the trees on the outskirts of here. The colour is too good to miss.

I am about to leave the forum for an hour and a quarter, as I have to listen to The Archer's Omnibus on line. I normally listen to it on my TV at home, whilst surfing, but Juragran's TV does not get Radio 4. I will be back......

Gorgeous morning here too! Decorator here for an early start and soon the colour will be going up on our new room. Washing on, line out ready, off to walk to the shop to collect the Sunday paper.

Hope the sun is shining on you all

Sun is shining here. DS will be here later to walk with me through the woods to the hidden Walled Garden (a lovely peaceful place) after which we will walk a couple of hundred yards further and meet up with DD2 and family for a Sunday lunch out.

Nothing unusual about my day, I am doing what I do every Sunday, visiting the DGC. Today though I am expecting eldest to say to me "do you know Grandma, I am going to see Disney on ice on Saturday" I know she is I bought the tickets and gave up a weekend away to look after GD2 because their Daddy is at star camp that weekend

anneandgraham Robert Browning, Pippa's song

"THE year's at the spring,
And day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven;
The hill-side's dew-pearl'd;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn;
God's in His heaven—
All's right with the world!

Catch up on the washing. Came back from Birmingham to find that I'm working mon tue we'd thurs next week.

Elegran That was my Dad's favourite poem - he wrote it in my autograph book when I was about 8. I had it inscribed on the back of the service sheet at his funeral. I am having a really bad day and that has cheered me up a bit

gally,

Gally lots of ((hugs))

Oh dear, Bags, while I hate to rain on your DH's parade, but the battle was a wee while ago and he might have missed the action.
PS I think we won about 2-nil but I understand there is to be a rematch at Flodden? Not sure what the odds are though

No anneandg it was Robert Browning:

The year’s at the spring,
And day’s at the morn;
Morning’s at seven; The hill-side’s dew-pearled;
The lark’s on the wing;
The snail’s on the thorn;
God’s in His heaven— All’s right with the world!
