Morning Mick. Maw I'm so glad your holiday has gone well.

North Leicestershire is fairly bright but that is as far as I can go waetherwise.

We have the wondrous Wolfie again today - I just hope his teeth have come through and he is in a better mood.

Morning Mick and all. Up early again sleep seems to evade me but when you get older we need less sleep so I am told. Quiet day today shopping being delivered later a general tidy up that's about my lot. Back to coast on Sunday. Hope everyone is doing OK and the day is not to stressful

Good Morning everyone.

It’s dry and the sky is looking cheerful on Severnside.

I’m sorry you didn’t get better news gillybob. You and Mr g must have felt so frustrated on leaving the consultant. Please look after your back.

I’m running a few errands this morning, some for me and one for someone else. Later this afternoon I will watch Downton Abbey. I never watched it before and now I wish I had.
Thinking of you all and hope you all have have a good day ?

Good morning Mick and all from the Scottish Borders. I hope it continues dry as I intend to be outdoors today.
Your holiday sounds wonderful Maw
Have a happy Friday everyone.

Good morning all.Another early riser here thanks to Miss Matilda.Not sure what the weather is doing as haven’t looked outside yet.We are meeting a friend and her little boy this morning then have to deliver Matilda to preschool at lunchtime.
Have a good day everyone,hope Wolfie is in a better mood for you kitty and safe travels home Maw.

Forgot to say happy Friday gilly??

Good morning; have woken up to clear blue skies here in Northampton, and the forecast is good for the weekend.

It was good to be back at rugby last night, even though we lost our friendly by a narrow margin. Great atmosphere and weather, red wine, and I stole a few (lot) of DD's chips....

Have to be out early as I have an appointment at the bank at 9.30am. Then a coffee and shopping. Picking up younger DGD from school this afternoon. She wants to make flapjacks.

Lovely pictures MawB. Glad you have had a good holiday; safe journey home.

Hope Friday is kind to all.

Morning. Kick, morning All from a bright corner of Somerset. You sound really uplifted maw, so pleased your holiday has gone well, safe trip home. Off early to audiology with Mr C then a look round a DIY shed which is closing and apparently has a ‘not to be missed’ sale . Hope Friday is kind to everyone.

Morning Mick Kitty and All.

Lovely bright sunny day here in South Bucks.

Session with the hairdresser today.

Hope Wolfie’s gnashers behave themselves Kitty.

Hope you are feeling better today Mary.

The photos are great Maw?

Good morning Mick & all. Dry, bright start in Nottingham. Shops & bank this morning, kitchen a building site, will do ironing in lounge.
Hope your back is feeling a bit better Gillybob & your DH has a better night.
Love your photos Mawb glad you had a lovely holiday.
Hope you’re feeling a bit better Marydoll
It’s Friday Gillybob

Have a good day everyone ?

Morning all from a murky looking Andalusia although yesterday started the same way and it did brighten up after breakfast - here’s hoping for more of the same today!

Went to my Amigas de Casa meeting yesterday where we were given a demo on needle felting and made bookmarks, small landscapes or key rings. So easy and quite therapeutic actually!

Nothing planned today so will dip into GN and live vicariously on whatever you’re all up to - hope it’s nice stuff for all.

Morning all. It's atypical Autumn day here in Glasgow. I love those kind of days.

Maw, your holidays sounds wonderful. I have many happy memories of travelling around Bavaria and parts of Austria on trains. It was my great student adventure.

I've been up since the crack of dawn, as I couldn't sleep.
I've made ham hough soup, plum crumble for grumpy Mr MDoll, (not that he deserves it!) and stripped the bed. I'm now off to strip the bed in the spare room, as DGD has pointed out that there is a mark on the throw and I need to wash it! It was probably she, who made the mark in the first place.

I will do a little baking, sultana cake and Mars Bar cake for the family who will descend tomorrow, as is their habit.
I'm shattered already.
I don't plan to go out at all today, still feeling pretty yukky.
I don't know whether it's the antibiotics or the cellulitis or a combination of both.
Thank you all for your kind wishes. Like all things, it will pass!

Have a good day all and Gilly, it's Friday!

Good morning from a sunny NE, wall to wall blue sky.
Nothing planned for today but should do housework as we are out tomorrow.
Thinking of you gilly.

Good morning from east London, bright and sunny and will hopefully warm up like yesterday. DP has advised we can start moving back into the kitchen but haven’t got a clue where the builders are drilling/sanding at the moment. My excuse to exit will be to go to the library to pick up the ‘book club’ book and pick up a prescription and maybe even a lottery ticket... School pickup to taxi GD to her dad for the weekend. For a change, I’m playing tennis this evening; it used to be a regular event for me until I retired and discovered day-time playing. Hope your day brings you what you want.

Meant to say, loved your photos Maw; took me back to my visits to a friend who lived in the Alsace region, the autumn colours and Christmas markets and the fantastic walking. (but then she married a bloke from Essex).

Good morning from cooler north east. Finishing my first week back at work can’t believe how quick this year has gone am I getting old? Ha ha have a lovely Friday all especially gillybob!

Good morning all from sunny SE Essex

Lovely photos Maw.

It's our wedding anniversary today, and yes we did get married on Friday 13th!!!!

Busy day, but going out for dinner in Leigh-on-Sea this evening.

Good morning Annie x

Happy Friday gillybob x

Thank goodness it’s Friday ! Good morning from the NE coast where the sky is blue and we have promises of a lovely day ahead.

I don’t have to leave the house until about 8.55 today as picking some parts up on my way in to “that place” and they won’t be ready until 9am . DH had a slightly better night last night and was only up about 4 times instead of his usual 10 or more . Not so much pacing around either. My bleedin’ back is driving me nuts though and I can’t seem to get comfortable. I’m actually better standing up . I have tried to do all my core stability stretches but not helping much at the minute. It’s so annoying as I have loads I need to do .

Anyhoo ..... thank you for sharing your holiday snaps MawB they are beautiful. Everything looks so “chocolate box” and those horses are gorgeous. Hope you have had a lovely time.

The Tour of Britain passed by not far from us Michael and there was a bit of a “carry on” as when they passed through one of the Northumberland villages the gate at the level crossings for the East coast main line closed and half the cyclists made it through and half didn’t . Obviously they had to hold the ones who had made it through back until the level crossing opened again, which meant they had to cancel some of the timings and effectively restart. Oh dear, they factored in all sorts of road closures and rolling road blocks but forgot about the level crossings !

Sorry to hear your little Wolfie’s teeth are giving him trouble Kitty poor lamb. Our little Evie’s teeth have just popped through without much trouble.

I hope you are feeling a little better Marydoll you sound like you have had a very productive morning already which puts me to shame .

I hope all of those feeling poorly, feel better soon and those on holiday continue to have the best of times.

I’m off to “that place” soon but will be clock watching ready to make a bolt for the door. My son is going to valet my little car for me later (he’s on a half day and loves cleaning cars ) so it will look as good as new when he’s finished as he is VERY thorough and has every car cleaning lotion and potion known to man. Then I’m taking my dad for his usual 2nd shop of the week.

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and good wishes for DH, you really are the loveliest of people xx

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

A late good morning everyone from Malaga (we ARE an hour ahead - oh dear). Slept like a log and what do I find?

Only Marydoll up and about baking (baking!!) at silly o’clock after having prepped the evening meal - where DO you get your energy from woman! Maw already travelling (probably on her second train of the day already!) posting such great photos - I adored the ponies in the cobbled square. gillybob off to a suppliers before another busy day and the rest of you ironing, going out to the bank, running errands and setting out to audiology appointments.

My name is Urmstongran and I am a sloth.

Hopefully Friday will be good to us all (it’s gorgeous down here on the coast again Pantglas1) whether we have plans or (like lazy me) none.

Actually I am going out to dinner with a really nice couple tonight ... but that just displays further my laziness ... no cooking today! x
