Good Morning Everyone,
Its another grey but wet start here in Brackley the wind seems to have dropped though.
Small shop, and a day in watching cycling on TV, and just general things.

Good morning all from a grey Devon, sun is trying to break through, so cold this morning again, I've had the heating on to take the chill off. Day at home but whether it's housework or gardening depends on the weather

Morning all from a murky South Notts. An easy day today, just pottering. I may do a little gardening if it's not too wet. Hope all is well with everyone.

Morning from Wiltshire. Grey. Cool. Am off to my women’s study group. Bible based but always interesting philosophical talk. Then into Bath to get some Dylon for my linen clothes. The shops that sell these are becoming rare as hens teeth, I go to the Guildhall market. Then home to Escape To The country. My secret me time. All 45 minutes of it. Sorta boring but have a strange cold that never seems to get it together but sort of dwindles on leaving me sore throaty and headachy for a while. I need to apologise to other half when he gets home. I was ratty.

Maple if you haven’t been to Cragside, I can thoroughly recommend it! Hope your weather improves.

Good morning,
It’s chucking it down here in Northumberland this morning, which will curtail our plans for getting out and about unfortunately, perhaps a visit to a castle might be on the agenda!
It was glorious on Monday when we went to Alnwick gardens, which are absolutely stunning. Yesterday was cooler but dry so we were able to get out and about a bit. The scenery around here is stunning.
Hope you all enjoy your day, whatever the weather.

Good morning all - drizzling in Leicestershire but undaunted we are off to the George in Stamford to meet friends for the start of my birthday weekend. Off to London and Brighton on Friday to see the DGG.

I hope your scan goes well Marydoll and you get some answers today. You have been poorly long enough!

Urmstongran Wed 12-Jun-19 09:17:54

P.s. meant to say hope your scan test today goes well Marydoll and your medical team can start to work out why you’re feeling rotten.

And X posts with yours oldgaijin hope your duvet day sees you feeling more your old self later. Chemotherapy sounds a nasty necessary. My sister used to say it was like fighting poison with poison (she is super well now thankfully & I hope you will be soon). x

Good morning everyone from sunny Malaga. It’s gorgeous (again). Fuengirola was a delight yesterday (thank you GG13 for asking) - wine, tapas and strolling about all afternoon. Came home, had our curry then out for (more) drinks with half a dozen friends. I had coke after one glass of wine as when I added up what I’d had all day (oh dear) I thought it best.

Such a warm evening. I had a dress on with short sleeves and it was after midnight when we set off home but we all said how still and mild it was. One of the ladies used her fan for a while!

Sorry to here about the awful weather in the U.K. we shall have to bring some sunshine back when we return next Wednesday.

Hello to you vena in Bristol. Welcome to this friendly thread if you are a newbie.

Hope this Wednesday is good to us all, whether we have plans or none. x

Good morning from a dreich, grey Aberdeenshire...flaming June? Huh!
Chemo went OK yesterday but am really tired and washed out this morning...the mutt too as he had a play day with a doggie chum and I think he overdid it, so we are both having a duvet day.
Have a good day everyone.

Good morning from east London, cloudy with rain threatened for later. Playing tennis at 9.30 so hope we won’t get disrupted. School pickup later then onto GD’s gymnastics. Have a good day

Good morning from a grey but dry Colchester. I'm sure it will rain at some point today.
Walking into town for a bit of shopping and weekly coffee meetup.

harrigran Wed 12-Jun-19 08:38:31

Good morning, heavy rain and wind overnight and still raining.
My hairdresser is coming this morning. Perhaps we will go out for lunch if the weather improves.

aggie Wed 12-Jun-19 08:35:29

Hello to all from a dull SE Surrey.
Yesterday was hot and I caught the sun a bit on my cheeks despite PS20. Another 2lbs weight loss yet I had mushroom/spinach omelette and strawbs n cream for dinner yesterday. Oh 'eck, I see rain just started spitting but the + is no need to water pots.
Sunningdale this morning with OH to meet friends for coffee so it'll be a dress and heels as he'll be suited n booted.
I saved a bee this morning which had got stuck behind the shutters. Picked it up and put it outside - that's my good deed for the day. grin
I hope everyone has a drier better day than of late and the sun shines for those GNs on holiday.

Harris27 Wed 12-Jun-19 08:11:30

Good morning all from a dull Rainey northeast. Are we ever going to get out summer? Off to work at 11 got roofer coming as kitchen roof leaking more money! Hey ho enjoy Wednesday all x

Sprout Wed 12-Jun-19 08:04:01

Morning Mick and all. Sun is trying very hard to get up and shine. Still wet everywhere though. Shopping arriving today then out to see a good friend. Have a good everyone

Greyduster Wed 12-Jun-19 07:57:34

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. It is grey and overcast in South Yorkshire, but it isn’t raining. Yet. I had optimistically thought I might get some laundry done because they forecast a dry morning, but it doesn’t look very laundry friendly. And it is so blooming cold! DH has a dental appointment this morning for a troublesome tooth. Have a good day folks.

gillybob Wed 12-Jun-19 07:49:50

Good morning from a grey and wet NE coast where the sea and the sky seemed to have joined up .

School runs then straight to “that place” for another thrilling day.

Have a good Wednesday everyone. x

Nannytopsy Wed 12-Jun-19 07:49:27

Morning all from Leicester. It had stopped raining when I first woke, but normal service has been resumed.
I have two colleagues visiting for lunch tomorrow, so I need to clear up the mess we have made sorting out photographs. I have got used to the "ready-for-viewing" look, most unlike my usual chaos!

EllanVannin Wed 12-Jun-19 07:48:49

Good morning All x
I don't think it's stopped raining for a week ! It's been relentless. Soggy, wet and not so warm either. Miserable !

Workmen have just turned up to do outside work in preparation for central heating. Thank goodness it won't involve indoors ---yet, because I can't be doing with any disruption before the arrival of my family from Oz.
8 months wait and they come digging now !! Grrrrrr.

D and I are off to M&S at some point today and I need some other bits from Asda too.

Must shower and dress now in case the workmen knock.
Hope everyone has an uncomplicated day.

Esther1 Wed 12-Jun-19 07:48:05

Good Morning everyone from a cloudy Surrey. Coffee and a gym class this morning with my best friend - nothing virtuous about this, it’s all about the chat and coffee. Car in for MOT, always a bit of trepidation here in case it fails expensively and miserably, and housework - I actually enjoy housework, I like the feeling of getting some order into my chaotic life. Have a nice day everyone.

Marydoll Wed 12-Jun-19 07:45:19

Good morning all from a cloudy Glasgow, but we we are not expecting rain.

Spent all day yesterday washing and drying DS1's family holiday washing. I drew the line at ironing it. grin.

I'm off to have my CT coronary angiogram today. I was offered a last minute cancellation and had said "Yes" before the lady even finished talking. Otherwise it would have been mid July before I got it.
Hopefully I will get some answers today, as why I'm so unwell. Fingers crossed.

There is a driving range close by and I am sending DH off to it to keep him busy and stop him worrying.

Have a good day all and I hope it stops raining for all the grans down south! smile

ninathenana Wed 12-Jun-19 07:37:08

Morning all.

Grey but dry in Kent. Rain is forecast but they have not been very accurate lately.
I have hospital appointment at 4.45 which means rush hour traffic adding half hour or more in each direction.
KFC for dinner blush as I won't be cooking.
Have a good day.

Brunette10 Wed 12-Jun-19 07:30:02

Good Morning all from a dullish Fife, rain forecast. What a pain!. Have DGS's today for their usual midweek visit. Will busy ourselves outside until we have to come in if/when the rain appears. Hope everyone has a good Wednesday.
