I’m going to have a g&t on the balcony and admire the sunset, then watch “Montalbano.” Then a nice early night with some short stories by Graham Greene.
To think in my teenage years, twenties and even thirties I thought it was really sad to be in on a Saturday night!

Greyduster, where does the wind go in the evening? It's blown here all day, now it's gone.
DH and are are settled on the sofa watching BGT. I'm also practicing some Tunisian crochet stitches.

Last night I went to a barn dance and danced until midnight. In between we sat outside drinking wine.

This is not the norm for me so it made a love change!

Lovely

We’ve been out for a curry. Walked home and instead of passing the Spanish bar beneath our apartment we called in for a nightcap! Sometimes it seems rude not to.

All credit to you BlueSapphire for finding the positives in life whilst navigating them on your own. Bet your husband would have been proud of you this evening. x

Off to Google 'Tunisian crochet' - not that my eyes would be up to doing it but I shall certainly try. smile

Cold and very, very wet here. Nothing much on television, or on the recorder. So might watch a bit of GOTH. ( we are only on series 4) I don't feel like knitting, so may go to bed early and finish reading my book. It has rained here, on and off since Tuesday. Everything is sodden. Oh for some warm sun

Its been a very wet and miserable day. Already in my pj's about to watch monty don and then catch up with wednesdays final episide of virtue, that is if i can work out how to do it. No alcohol so far.

I have been cold this afternoon so I have lit my wood burner. DH fetched fish and chips, so I am now warm and full. Might continue with Summer of Rockets.

I’ve just said goodnight to my three grandchildren who ( we hope!) are settling down in our holiday house, and I’m having a glass of wine in anticipation of a nice supper cooked by my daughters and sons in law. Then some of us are going to play Scrabble.

In bed all day unfortunately recovering from evening with friends (CFS). Just been watching Summer of Rockets too. Sudden violence. Hand in front of Eyes time. Good though.

Sitting here watching Gardeners' World. Moving piece about a WW2 veteran in The Peace Orchard of Coventry which he helped set up in memory of his fallen comrades.

Monty Don's dog is looking a bit floppy tonight. Drugged by the camera crew?

joannapiano Fri 07-Jun-19 21:05:45

We’re watching France v South Korea in the women’s football World Cup, on BBC. France are three goals up and seem to be very good. Still a bit rainy here and cat and rabbit snoring on the rug in the conservatory.

Sar53 Fri 07-Jun-19 21:11:24

We are also watching the football. DH has a nasty cold and not feeling too good. It's been a wet miserable day. Hope the weekend is better.

merlotgran Fri 07-Jun-19 21:20:31

Also watching GW with a large wine then we'll catch up with Summer of Rockets on iPlayer.

tanith Fri 07-Jun-19 21:29:49

Nothing on tv so was going to continue with GOT only to find out it’s no longer available on NOW tv only series 8 is there I could cry I’m halfway through season 7 buggeration ???.

MiniMoon Fri 07-Jun-19 22:13:20

In fed up of feeling cold. It's wet and windy here. Had the heating on for an hour. Been watching another episode of Good Omens on Amazon prime video. Finished my Tunisian crochet phone cosy. It just needs a button now.

Anniebach Fri 07-Jun-19 22:17:48

Playing Killer Sudoku, again

suziewoozie Fri 07-Jun-19 22:20:09

I’ve just had coffee and chocolates and am now going to watch Montalbano on catch up. I expect the weather there is warmer

Mamissimo Sat 08-Jun-19 02:11:54

I’ve been eating freshly steamed lobster on the dock in Boothbay, Maine, USA

Hampshirehog Sat 08-Jun-19 10:00:43

That sounds lovely Mamissimo! I've planned a BBQ with the family as it's my birthday today but the weather doesn't look good so I think my DH may be cooking outside while we eat inside!
