Jane you are welcome at any time of day.

Good morning from a grey and wet Telford in Shropshire. I don’t join in this thread very often because it is often late afternoon before I log on.

Dora what a lovely treat for you after your course of radiotherapy. I’m sure you will have a wonderful time.

Hello Susan56 also in Shropshire, I don’t think there are many of us on here. I’m glad your daughter got good news and baking will surely brighten a wet and dull day.

Hi from wet windy wild south Somerset.. no sign of the sheep and lambs in the surrounding fields... expect they have sensibly found shelter under the hedges ...
snuggling down today... not venturing out ... the ford over the stream down the lane will be raging over the lane and trying to wash small cars away ...

Good morning, everyone.
It's grey, cold and breezy here this morning with some drizzle thrown in for good measure.
Good news about your daughter, Susan. You must feel very relieved.
Dora, I hope you enjoy your weekend, and to anyone else going away, too.
I wish a speedy recovery to those of you feeling under the weather.
Hope the therapy session is not too painful for you, Annie. You are brave.

Blowing a gale here on South Glam coast and the rain is lashing down. DS has a ridge tile blown off.
Still in bed, came home from hospital yesterday evening. Have been given various equipment to help with mobility, good old NHS.
So good to hear people's good news Susan ?
Have a good day everyone, love hearing about all your activities and antics. A big Cwtch to everyone feeling poorly.

Good Morning All from a grey, miserable South East London - but no wind (well not outside the house!!) grin
Going to Sainsburys this morning.
Meeting up with friends this evening for a quiz and supper at the local golf club. Looking forward to it as it's always a really fun evening. Missed the last one because I had a bad back.
I hope everyone has a good day - and Good Luck Annie I hope your therapy session goes well.

Good morning All x
Miserable dark wet and windy day so as usual I won't be going far.
Thoughts to those of you who are not so grand and good wishes to those who are on the mend. We never know how our day works out when we wake up these days but like Mawbroon, positivity is key to our well-being.

Stay safe if storm Erik should gather momentum.

Dreary wet blowy day in east London. Tennis session at 10 today, mixture of coach and play. I like it as our coach doesn't try to go back to scratch and change your style but looks at tweaks and strategy instead. Looks like we're excused taxi duty after school tonight but DD may change her mind if the weather gets worse.

Good morning all from a rain lashed Aberdeenshire, and there's a howling gale too. No firm plans for anything today except to stay inside and keep cosy.
Have a good day everyone.

NanKate Fri 08-Feb-19 09:16:26

I will be thinking about you today Annie. Keep at it, easy to say hard to do.

Mary do you think your itching is to do with the cold weather ? I am lathered up on arms and legs with Sudocreme for my itching. Can you take an antihistamine tablet tonight or will that mess up your others tabs ?

Anniebach Fri 08-Feb-19 08:56:05

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Have therapy again today, dreading it.

Hope everyone has a good day x

Nanabanana1 Fri 08-Feb-19 08:45:11

Morning all from a wet and very windy Torbay, will walk the dog between showers then baking birthday cake for grandson for tomorrow he’ll be 16, don’t know where the times gone!!
Hope you all have a good day.

Morning all from a wet and windy County Durham.
After 2 days resting in bed I am now convinced my tummy pain is muscle strain from last week's Pilates class. At least a little rest and gentle exercise should mend it. Haven't a clue about the fluctuating temperature though. It has all really made me stop and think about all those on GN who suffer from the most painful conditions on an almost daily basis. How hard that must be.
We're off to Robin Hoods Bay for a mini cottage break today. It will be no long walking hikes for me though.
Wow Marydoll. How fortunate you saved your kitchen in time.
Have a lovely day everyone and keep safe.

MawBroon Fri 08-Feb-19 08:39:22

Good morning all, from a blustery corner of N Bucks.
On doctors orders to “take it easy” today ( do I ever do anything else?) after yesterday cortisone injection.
So another cup of tea in bed with a clear conscience.
Supper with friends this evening and watching “Roma” at theirs on Netflix.
Wishing you all a pleasant day and “Gute Besserung” as they say in Germany to any who are poorly.

teaforone Fri 08-Feb-19 08:35:01

Good morning all. Feel in need of exercise this morning so will walk into local village instead of getting the car out of the garage. So glad Susan to hear your good news. It is such a worry waiting for the results of tests and I hope dragonfly that you have a better night tonight. Dd is waiting for results of tests so I am very restless.

Geryfelin Fri 08-Feb-19 08:23:29

Good morning everyone, and how nice to hear about good news and fun days ahead, and an ordinary day for some. It is wet and windy here. I’m headed to my voluntary work this morning then some housework this afternoon. Lots of tidying to do. New gd due on Monday, exciting!

Grammaretto Fri 08-Feb-19 08:19:20

Morning all from the Scottish Borders. It looks wild and windy outside. Yoga today and then must catch up on housework.
I'm very happy for you Susan that was such good news.
We saw Mary Queen of Scots last night but were disappointed. They got the scenery and weather right but the characters were not well developed.
Have a good weekend everyone.

ninathenana Fri 08-Feb-19 08:18:43

Good morning everyone.

Wet and windy in Kent too. Usual Friday food shop and coffee out. No treatment needed at the eye clinic yesterday, yeah !
Glad to hear the good news Susan enjoy your break Dora

Greyduster Fri 08-Feb-19 08:14:59

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. Cold and grey in South Yorkshire, but dry at the moment. I have some cleaning to do this morning and then we are going shopping, with lunch thrown in (I think that’s a bribe - I hate shopping!). Have a good day, folks!

Marydoll Fri 08-Feb-19 08:13:51

Good morning Mick and all. It is blowing a hoolie here in Glasgow.
DH has offered to do the supermarket shopping, I'm happy to let him! grin

I have woken up with an itchy rash, even my hands are itchy! It's driving me mad!!!
A pottering about day today after a frightening episode yesterday. I was toasting coconut yesterday when the it went on fire, I didn't realise how hot my new grill is. It was quite frightening, as the grill fan was blowing the flames into the kitchen. By the time DH faffed about with the fire extinguiser, I had put it out, but it was really scary.?.
I had visions of my new kitchen being destroyed.

Susan, I'm glad your news was better than expected, enjoy your baking with your wee granddaughter.

I hope all those who are feeling under the weather, improve soon.

Sallyann51 Fri 08-Feb-19 08:11:10

Good morning all,
Wet and windy here in Surrey. Still in bed at the moment.
Off to table tennis later this morning, always enjoyable, such a lovely crowd of people.
This afternoon will be spent getting ready for our holidays. We leave on Sunday for Singapore and Cambodia. Really looking forward to it.
Hope Friday is kind to you all

cornergran Fri 08-Feb-19 08:11:00

Morning Mick, morning All from a very windy and wet corner of Somerset. Admin this morning then a food shop if the rain has eased. Hope Friday is kind to everyone.

dragonfly46 Fri 08-Feb-19 08:10:07

Good morning all - beginning to rain in Leicestershire. Very little sleep last night but will go and see Mum today.

Wonderful news susan how relieved you must be. Have fun with roly poly baby kitty and best wishes to all the poorly grannies.

Brunette10 Fri 08-Feb-19 08:06:02

Good Morning to all and to those who follow. It's very windy and wet here too in Fife today but expected. No plans really today but I'm quite glad I don't like going out in weather like this. DD still suffering from the sick bug sad. Tare care everyone esp those heading out.

Pittcity Fri 08-Feb-19 08:03:53

Good morning from a wet and windy Colchester. Still in bed as DH has a cough which disturbed our sleep.
