Good Morning Thursday

Good morning all , there is a very pretty sky this morning , pale blue with pink washed clouds
I planted some sweet pea seeds in pots yesterday and am going to shove some in the border for comparison , hoping the slugs don’t get them or the crows !

Good morning all from a sunny, but damp Glasgow.
Mick, I know you love your bus journeys, but I think the time has come to stay safe at home and be sensible. We don't want anything to happen to you.

I have also been wondering How Megs and her husband are.

The wedding fiasco continues. There is still no definitive info from the venue. This is a large group with prestigious hotels, but so far nothing from them.
We have cancelled the make up artist, nails etc. My future DIL, has volunteered to step in. My son has a keeper there. . She has remained quietly in the background, but has been amazing in the last few weeks.
The plan is that DD will get married very quietly with just us and followed by a meal. Things are changing so fast that weddings may be banned in the next week.

We have a panic on. DD was to pick up her dress on Saturday, instead of the following week. Last night she got a message from the bridal boutique asking
her to pick it up this morning, the owner thinks she will be closing in 24 hours!?
There is no way DD will be able to do that, so DH and I will have to go for it. I will stay in the car, while DH goes in for it. Thankfully it is only 15 minutes away and the place has its own private car park.

I had a call from the cardiac unit yesterday saying that my cardiac appointment will now be a telephone consultation.
The doctor was asking how I was occupying myself, as they were concerned about people missing social interaction.
I told her I had GN, not to worry.

My plan for today is to continue playing with my new steamer, nothing was safe from atatck! I was like a child with a new toy. This is what I am reduced to!
My kitchen was gleaming yesterday, for all of five minutes, until DH appeared and left a trail of disaster!?

I never read instructions, much to my regret yesterday. The pressure in the steamer increased so much, it blew the lid of. . A bit dangerous, as I never realised what a powerful beast it was!!! . A lesson learned there!

Thinking of all with worries and ill health, so many sad posts on GN from people who have no-one or despite their own ill health, are caring for seriously ill partners. I salute you, all!
My thoughts are especially with Dragonfly.?

Keep safe everyone.

Good morning everyone.
Rain over night in Kent, now just gloomy.
My telephone appointment with GP didn't happen yesterday and when I tried to call they were permanently engaged. Eye clinic at the hospital this morning. I've checked that clinic is still happening. Looking on the bright side, parking might be a bit easier.
Take care everyone. Mick I admire your 'carry on' attitude but be careful.

Goodmorning Mick and all x

I have been awake since 2.30am, it's been raining through the night and now very grey (matching my mood).

After my trip out down the end of my road yesterday, that's it for the next 12 weeks (at least).

Thinking of megs36 , Gillybob you are an absolute hero.

Urmstongran good morning and our other Goodmorningers abroad.

Marydoll I hope you are well

Mick please be careful.

Take care folks and keep safe

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. The sun is shining through my dirty windows. I will need to be cleaning today.
Sad that even more people are getting anxious over school closures and money worries.
Tesco is offering us oldies a special hour from tomorrow.
I don't know when we'll see our DGC again but we were treated to a virtual concert by DGS who plays the piano brilliantly.
I love to hear there's less pollution already and that there are no new cases of cv in China.
Have as good a day as you can.

Good morning all from grey N Bucks.
Well, soon there will not be much left to say we are doing!
I have a Waitrose delivery due this morning ???? (Putting the flags out) and will drop off a baby present to a friend whose son and DIL drove over to visit from Germany at the weekend to show off their 6 month old first baby to the family - well that was the plan.
When they will be able to go home is anybody’s guess and the big family gathering my friend had organised is of course cancelled. My friend will be thrilled to have them to stay but of course they shouldn’t really have set off in the first place. However, things are changing so quickly from day to day, nobody quite realised. It is a lesson to those of us who think we can just go on as before as long as we wash our hands ☹️?
Wishing you all continued good health, thinking especially of MOMB, Megs, Marydoll, Gillybob and all with their personal mountain to climb, and for us all, as pleasant a day as conditions permit.

Good morning Mick
Please take care when you are out and about, spacing and all that.

I’m cross that I missed the narrow window of opportunity to cut the lawn yesterday, went out in the afternoon and it was cold a raining in the wind, then it rained...... let’s hope we soon get some consistently good weather.

DH went out for his first walk since his illness ( 3 weeks) didn’t go far, but he was exhausted afterwards, he’s going stir crazy though, heaven knows what he will be like after 12 weeks! But if was hot and sunny he’d sit in the garden all day and not feel confined, odd isn’t it?

Have a good day everybody, I know that in these Coronavirus times, some still have ordinary health burdens and will be under even more pressure, so all my best wishes and to everybody , stay safe.

Good morning everyone from a bright and dry Inverness , even the sun looks like it’s showing up today ?
Nothing planned for me today, I’ll be keeping busy at home starting all those jobs I’ve been putting off for ages.
mumofmadboys hope the day goes as well as expected
Please take care everyone in these worrying times ?

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire. Day looks good out there and it’s not too cold out.
‘Working’ from home today do I will get started on the garden weeding. DD said she will come and help me.
Our radio station is doing a piece where you can offer or ask for help with shopping etc. It is really nice to hear.
Gilly. I have been thinking about you all night (sounds a bit odd saying that!) but I was. I do hope you can find some light at the end of this tunnel.
Please take care Mick don’t touch your face at all until you have washed your hands.❤️

Even with all that is going on please try and have the best day possible and take my big smile and pass it on

Good Morning everyone from a grey Oxfordshire
Hulahoop bit late but hope you had a good birthday yesterday
Thinking of you Megs36
Went to B and Q last night and got 2 rolls of lining wallpaper and dropped off a parcel of colouring pencils, craft stuff, glue, old socks to make sock puppets etc to our DD to help keep the little ones occupied next week.
Best wishes to all

Good Morning everyone from a slightly misty and wet Severnside.

Went to the bank yesterday and everyone did the big gap.

Plan to stay home today and do some housework and tidying.

Take care all of you and have the best day you can ?

Good morning Mick and everyone. It's a bit gloomy here in Cheshire just when we need some sunshine. Perhaps it will clear later. One of my neighbours goes to work very early and with the bleeps of his remote I wake and that's it, I have to get up. I've already had my cuppa.

Mick please take care when out and about.

No painting class today so a walk in the woods later. Still wondering whether to keep my hair appointment tomorrow. I know the salon owner has made changes to seating and everyone must wash hands on arrival. Perhaps a good haircut will be my last trip out for the duration.

Got in the garden yesterday and mostly swept up leaves from the woods and scattered them back in the woods. I may mop the garden today. It's a long paved path with beds on either side and so as not have the man come to jetwash it, I have a notion to mop it.

Stay safe and exercise caution if going out. Special good wishes to all with sickness or worries. The list got a rather long in recent days. Warm welcome to new GM friends.

Good morning Mick. Greetings from a grey E Kent.
My usual Thursday Spanish classes have been cancelled as most of the students are, like me, in an advanced state of decrepitude. Our tutor, bless her, is organising internet live streaming classes or whatever it’s called. I’m feeling quite excited. Nice to have something positive while “self immolating”

Good morning all! Awake early as going to a friend's funeral. Have to set off at 7 am. Take care everyone and keep well.
