Good Morning Everyone,
Its dry but its cloudy this morning this in Brackley.
Looks like the weather forecast is changing to a more bearable temperature this week.
Usual day for me bits of housework, then watch TV.

Good morning Viet...oh! sorry, got a bit carried away there ??
Anyway...grey sky and not a breath of air here in Godalming.
17° and yellow thunderstorm warning...?
My morning run ended near Waitrose so I bought milk for sustenance as I'm forgoing bread for the time being. No duck treats.
All chores done so the day is free.
I may go into Petersfield for a mooch and call in on a friend.
Here's hoping everyone has an interesting week lined up and the weather stays fair ?
Take care ????

Good morning from east London, grey skies today, just hope the rain holds off til mid afternoon so I can play tennis at lunchtime. Otherwise it will just be cleaning and avoiding the builders. It must also be getting to DP as he’s suggested a short break when we drop DS back at uni next month and is not opposed to my suggestion of a few days up north sometime soon. Have a good day.

Good morning Michael, Annie and all.
Woken up this morning by ''the great British workmen'' digging up our road.
I think/ hope, that they are going to resurface it. There have been potholes for months, after the extensive building around here, and our road was used as a cut through by the heavy lorries. Weeks ago, someone came and marked the holes ( as if you couldn't see them), and I had thought that by the time they came to repair them, the marks would all have worn away. It would also be nice, if the repair is done properly and not just a porridge type mess, rammed into the holes.
Anyway, it is nice to think that something is being done.
It is going to be nice today, sunshine outside and blue skies with fluffy clouds.
Have a good day one and all.

Good morning everyone,

A little overcast in Brittany, picked some blue hydrangea and lavender from the garden this morning for a vase for DH because it's our anniversary.

Our crew crossed the channel overnight and should be with us by 11.30am for a holiday. We're off to Binic for a celebratory picnic this afternoon, even if it's raining!

I hope everyone enjoys their day xx

Morning! A bit late today but I can see brightness and even sunshine here in Leicester. Another visit to the tip is planned plus a bit of shopping. Have a good day everyone.

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. The sun is shining and the curtains are out on the line. Brownie points for me!
We braved the weather to listen to a German choir who were very happyclappy . Another Fringe concert tonight. All this culture!wink

I hope this cold/wet front moves away before our hols next week. I'm tired of saying "aren't we glad we aren't in a tent"

Have a lovely day everyone whether it's 40c or 40f.

Buongiorno from a very hot Italy. Apparently it's supposed to be hotter than yesterday! A cleaning day today, getting ready for ferragosto on Thursday. Just hope it's a bit cooler as we are having friends coming for lunch. Yesterday I was sweating making tomato chutney. Husband just cleaned the pan for me as it burnt on the bottom!! Temperature just now!

Forgot to say have a great day whatever your plans!

Good Morning All x
Cloudy, breezy and cool----for a change ! Of course I've got a jumper on and it looks as though it'll be staying on all week, well not the same one but various changes of jumpers !

Another of " those phone-calls " at 08.30, picked up receiver straight away and it immediately gave me the duff number ( voicemail ) of Scottish Power so it looks as though I'm on their list of annoying calls. Frustrating because I couldn't tell them to bog off.

Not sure if D's off today, if so she'll be calling in, especially if she thinks I've been baking----which I have and usually do at weekends.
Making my shopping list for tomorrow so that I don't forget anything. We'd be very rich if we didn't eat !

Some hoovering to do but not much else.

Enjoy the day everyone whatever you do.

Morning everyone. Sunny and cloudy. Shall I hang out the washing. Hope you all have a good day.

Morning all, sunshine & showers in Devon. I've already been out & done my errands, luckily it was fine. Just had a rain shower so it looks like a day for housework.

Need to get out in the garden but not sure if I'll be able too.

Have a good day every-one

Good morning,
Quite a bit cooler today. Cloudy but dry.
Just got back from coffee morning. Popping out again later this pm but not for long.
In the meantime, not a lot planned, may just read my book. ?

Another of " those phone-calls " at 08.30
Ellan; Simply hook an answering M/c to your phone! I now let all calls ring through to mine; if it's one of "those" calls it soon rings off; if you recognise a genuine caller, pick up handpiece and "Voila" smile
