Today I have been (will be) mainly

So, today I have been for a walk with grandson and we came home on a BUS (big, huge adventure for a boy that never uses public transport). Later we had another walk to the river and searched for mini-beasts.
We picked (and he ate) strawberries.
We bottled the elderflower cordial we made earlier - grandson held the funnel, a very important job.
We played with Duplo (his favourite toy at the moment).
We watched 2 Choir Boys Sing The Meow Song about six times throughout the day!
We read countless stories and drew countless pictures and also prepared and ate several meals.
And now my little cherub is tucked up in bed and I am about to flop and do NOTHING for the rest of the evening.

Yes, a proud moment.

I have found out that you only get the last screensave you saved to the clipboard (via a button marked Prt Sc) so I just have the last one of the actual capping, which is quite good. However, I had a brainwave and pasted that into Openoffice and saved it, then managed to get a couple more where he is sitting in the crowd (miles away) , and filing out at the close of the ceremony (rather blurred), pasting and saving each of those.

Ah - thought so - a proud moment for parents and grandparents alike.

Sorry Elegran - don't know how screensaves work.

It really is such a special day, but the cost of official photo's is somewhere in the region of £80-£90 I remember; ridiculously expensive, but I must admit I do buy them.

YES that was him, GA.

I took several screensaves, I can paste the last one into OpenOffice, but I can't find the earlier ones. Can anyone help? Have they been overwritten by the later ones?

Going by your description - and the fact that he was indeed very near the end I do believe I may have spotted your grandson Elegran. His name was A.B.?

Well, not quite last but damn near it, but saw him at last, and I did a screensave, so with any luck I will have a photo.

Can't access the video

Still waiting! I did see him file in at the start! Can't see his parents in the audience either. Don't dare leave my seat or I will miss him.

Did you see him yet Elegran?

I think he is going to be right at the end. I might go and make cup of coffee.

Thanks all for good wishes; grandson is much better and mother in law - no change.

Elegran - that's such a treat, being able to watch the ceremony and feel a part of it. Vivat academia!
Good luck to all who are having medical interventions and happy eating to 'ladies who lunch'.
Ash you must be very excited.

Today I will be mainly entertaining my grandson, who is slightly more boisterous now that he's feeling better, although he's still unwell enough to be wanting lots of cuddles. Like kitty I will need to flop by the time he's in bed.

Just sitting down at the pooter to watch online as my grandson graduates ( here He is the long thin one with a ponytail, getting a BMus 2/1)

Sorry to hear that, Teetime. All my golf balls used to go round corners, but it was incompetence, not physiology!. Hope you get some relief from it soon.

Oh dear I hope all the poorly ones are having a better day today. .

Today I am off to the osteopath at last given in - the sciatica during the night is driving me mad and all my golf balls are going round corners so I deduce from that that my back is out of alignment again. - hope its not too painful - used to kill me the last sessions I had a few years ago - bottle of Prosecco on ice for after!!!

grannya I hope your lovely mil recovers quickly, and your dgs is responding well to the drugs.

Today I'm mooching round the local 'posh' shop with my friend and then she wants egg and chips in our favourite Turkish café. I will just have a coffee and pinch her chips!

Hope it's not too tedious, Greyduster and GA, let's hope this is just a temporary setback for your MiL.
I'll be having a with a friend this morning and then picking up another friend to go out to lunch. If the weather holds, I hope to get out in the garden later on.

Thank you, ash; very kind.

Good luck with all that Greyduster, and best wishes to your DH for a good outcome here.

Today I will be mainly spending the day at the hospital with DH where he sees a surgeon about repairing his inguinal hernia. It will take us the best part of two hours to get there, we will be there, by the sound of it, about two and a half, and two hours to get back, so a long day.

Sorry to hear about your DMiL ga and really hope she will recover soon - also your little GS.

Today I will mostly be ensuring everything is organised and in place for when my DD and brand new GD come home - either this evening or tomorrow.

Hope everyone is feeling, and doing, better today ga.

Today I will mainly be going to Sainsbury's, unpacking and putting away all with 2year old DGD. Then I'll need a lie down in a darkened room!

I hope your beloved MIL gets better soon ga, and that the little one is back to his normal bouncy self very quickly

Best wishes to you and yours ga, hope everyone gets well soon
