Six weeks on from the leak under the bath and we still only have half a kitchen ceiling so will be glad when that is finally sorted and repainted!
Hope you get your tickets Sar53

Good morning from the Shropshire borders where it is another dry day.
Day two of new window fitting today.They didn’t get as much done as we thought yesterday,looks like it will be a four day job ?I am going to my daughters today to do school runs so leaving DH in charge then I will bring DGD back for her Thursday sleepover.
Welsh class last night went well,glad my husband is a fluent welsh speaker so he can help with my pronunciation.I am looking forward to the next class.
Still have a swollen eye?cold compresses are helping gilly.Will give it another day then will call the opticians.
Hoping you are feeling better Mary and Dragonfly and gilly hope you both had a better/comfortable night.x
Thinking of all with illness and worries especially Ellan and her family?

Good morning everyone from a cold but dry morning in Inverness
I’m off to the gym later then a quick trip to the shops for a few things. Hopefully there’s not been too much stockpiling being done and most things are still available!
Good luck Sar53 with the Genesis tickets !
Hope everyone has a good day today especially those with worries

Good morning from east London, grey miserable morning outside. Couple of hours tennis today then choir tonight. May have to go grocery shopping in between. My GD wants to dress as her own fictional character for WBD who she says she has written a book about. Offered to help with her costume last night but she said it only needed a pair of knickers on her head; I suspect there’s a link to Captain Underpants. Have a good day.

Buggerations

Nicely put Kittylester wink

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire. Cold but dry out there this morning.
Good luck with the genesis tickets Sar I dread to think how much they will cost!
Normal work day for me today.
DH is dreading either of us catching the virus as he is off on a trip of a lifetime to the US in two weeks. He has ‘banned’ me from going to the gym (not that I am complaining ?) we work on our own and never see anyone so we don’t really have those issues. I really feel for him and have even made him some hand sanitizer as all the shops have run out!
Best wishes to all.

Good Morning from a bright and frosty Fife. Off to hairdresser today. Can't believe that's a month since I was there. DGS1 won't manage to dress up today for World Book Day, he is still poorly. To be honest I don't think he was that fussed anyway, not really the dressing up type. A little bit of shopping then cooking to finish off my day today. Thinking of all not feeling that great today. Take care.

Good morning all from a dry North Leicestershire.

The decorator is coming this morning!

Thinking of everyone with buggerations of any sort.

Good Morning everyone from a light and dry Severnside.

I am crafting today and looking forward to that.

When my daughter was at school I used to like to see what the children all came as on WBD NanKate and enjoyed making costumes for her for that day and the summer fayre. As old as she is she still likes dressing up.
I also like to see children’s artwork.

Hope you all have the best day day possible ?

Good morning everyone from a very grey, miserable looking Essex by the sea.
On the dot of 9 I am going to try and get tickets for my 2 daughters and I to see Genesis at the 02 in November. Wish me luck.
I have a parcel being delivered between 8.30 and 11. 30 so can't go out till it arrives.
I hope all those with worries or illness have a good day.
Have a lovely day everyone.

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. A frosty start by the look of the hills. U3A walk along the coast today to a place I've never been.

Hope everyone has a good day especially thinking of those with anxiety and pain.

Morning Mick and All.

Think it’s going to be wet all day in West Sussex.

DGSs managed to spin bedtime out by half an hour last night will try to get them started earlier tonight.

As it is World Book Day one is going to school as a Roman Gladiator and the other as Fing a dog I think from a David Walliams book.

Good morning Mick and everyone. Yes, dawn is breaking and it's so nice after the dark winter mornings. It's white with frost at rooftop level and it's a clear sky in Cheshire. No wind or rain! Hurrah! Hope the sports are able to go ahead Mick. I know how much you enjoy it, but this virus has hit them hard.

I'm off to painting this morning. Hope to finish my painting of St Mark's! I think the original took less time. Lunch with a friend, then hair to be tamed at hairdresser's. This evening I have a meeting of the charity I support.

Sending warm wishes to all our poorly or sad good morning friends. Hope things are improving for Gilly and OH. Also get well wishes to Marydoll and Dragonfly.

Have a good day everyone.

Good Morning Everyone,
Another twilight start this morning, looks frosty out but dry in Brackley.
Today will be on the buses again to my usual destinations, have a couple of coffees and eats plus shop.
Hoping that sporting fixtures I watch on TV go ahead this weekend in Italy and France.
