Good morning everyone from South Manchester where it’s wet. We had a downpour 10 minutes ago, now the sun is trying to shine but I don’t think it’ll last as the clouds are heavy and grey.

I’ve just waved to a friend I shared a bottle of wine with yesterday. She and another friend are on the station platform opposite going into the city to change trains there as they have tickets for the Centre Court at Wimbledon. She goes whenever she can get tickets. Is it a lottery? I meant to ask her but forgot as I am not a fan.

No plans for us today.

Hello peonyrose nice to welcome a newbie. Mick your band of followers just grows and grows!

A sad reason for moving into a new flat NannyJan53 bet you really feel for your son right now. Nobody gets married to get divorced do they?
?

Hope Friday is good to us all whether we have plans or (like me) none. x

P.s. one morning I will attempt a shorter message - mine are like War & Peace!

Good morning everyone , sunny here in Bristol with a lovely shower of rain in the night, the garden smells lovely and fresh. My daughter is coming today with the wee one for a few days so looking forward to that. Enjoy everyone where ever you are going and whatever you are doing .

Thank you Auntieflo a sad time for the family, especially for my 2 DGD's. I am supporting them all as best I can.

Missed your post Urmston, thank you. They had been married nearly 15 years! He is 43 but you never stop worrying about them do you?

Good morning from Dublin, everyone. It's bright but cloudy here. This morning I am meeting a good friend who lives half the year in Portugal & half here. Really looking forward to the chat & catching up with all her news.
Hope you all enjoy your day.

Morning all , bit cool out , I nipped out to throw the tealeaves round my Hydrangea , and felt a draft round my ankles , so came back in rather Quickly .
The Hydrangea is mine because I chose it and it was rather limp and unattractive last year , the leaves are a strange reddish colour and DD is not keen . It has responded to the tea leave treatment and is covered in huge flower buds

That’s it really !

Good morning from an overcast NE, what's new ?
Slept in this morning, was surprised to find it was 9am when I woke.
My GP rang me yesterday afternoon, I only had my blood test done the day before. I have to return on Monday for more blood tests and will have another gastroscopy within two weeks.
Family are away for the weekend for their annual meet-up with their university friends. DS and DIL both went to UCL, it is where they met. DS is the only one of the group who has children, twenty six years since he graduated my goodness.

Hi-de-hi campers ??
Another sunny day in Godalming...blue sky, fluffy white clouds, 22° and rising.
Usual run this morning but different route as we met at Blackdown which is quite hilly and roughish terrain in parts. Met two young women who were running with weighted vests. ?
I'm not up for that.
Brekkie of spelt porridge with blueberries and 2 glasses of water.
M&S today to return some lovely linen trousers which are falling off me. Luckily I still have the receipt but the downside is that I will invariably shop for food and browse the market in the High St.
Actually, looking out of the window now, I see some grey clouds are looming. Not rain...pleeease ?
Good wishes for a fabulous weekend to all GNers and to those of you who are struggling with worries or health issues...???? take care.

Enjoy every minute of your weekend.
I do hope you have plenty of 'me' time. ?

Good morning everyone and welcome, Peonyrose. I love your user name - they are two of my favourite flowers. ?
Well, I had plans to pop into town for a mooch around, but I'm feeling rather light-headed and headachy at the moment so I think I will stay put.
The phone has been sorted, and it was as I suspected - crossed lines.
Those of you out and about today, have a lovely time. Those feeling not too well, I hope you soon feel brighter.
Take care, all.

Peonyrose I keep meaning to say ‘hello’, but forgetting, so have a bunch of my Bowl of Beauty buds that opened indoors. Welcome.

Morning everyone. Early start with my lovely grandchildren in Ashtead - lots of fun and all before 8 am! Praying for a good journey on the M25 as yesterday was dreadful - back to Essex (warm but very cloudy) and looking forward to. Saturday BBQ with friends. Have a good one everybody xxxx

Strange...my hydrangea has reddish tinged leaves this year too.
Have I watered too much or too little? It's in a very large ceramic pot.
Does it need an ericacious feed?
It was planted into a commercial peaty compost containing some perlite.
