Good Morning Friday

Morning Michael, Annie, and all.
Bit dull outside and looks as though there is a bit of a breeze.
DH was up earlier to make tea and empty the dishwasher, so I shall be finding his inspired places to put things that I will be looking for.
As usual, nothing planned, again, just potter on and something turns up.
Mustn't do any more baking, as the tin is full and also the freezer.
At least I will have something on a plate for our family Zoom get together on Sunday. Fancy crockery is on order, so I have said to get extra points a knitted tea cosy is also required ?.
Do I have one? Oh yes!
At our end of the road, we were all out again clapping for the NHS and essential services. Last week, the little lad, across the road, broke his mum's wooden spoon in his enthusiasm.
Had some lovely phone calls yesterday, it is much nicer than emailing.
Will pop back later to see how the Gillybob's are.
To all who have anniversaries, birthdays, or other notable days . Also to those who are self isolating ?
Take care and stay safe one and all.

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Good morning all nice morning again here.

Nothing much to do today so will catch up on my book and maybe make a cake and a walk.

Welcome to all the new posters

Bluesapphire

Take care everyone

Well I wrote a long winded Good Morning about 20 minutes ago and it seems to have blown away in the wind........... probably for the best

So take 2.......Good morning from the NE coast where the sun is trying hard to get out . I have got some washing to hang out yippeee (what a treat) and then I shall have another cup of tea.

So sorry to hear you have swollen face Grammaretto . Is is a tooth do you think? I hope you can get sorted. I’m supposed to be seeing a specialist on 29th April but not sure if it will go ahead. My sinus’s are permanently blocked and very painful and I can’t lie on my left side . The swelling is not as bad as it was but under my eye is very puffy and it throbs terrible .

There was smell of gas in my kitchen yesterday (DH insisted there wasn’t but there most definitely was ) which seems to be coming from one of the burners on my hob . Switched the gas off as a precaution .Not sure what to do really . Can’t do without a hob . When it rains it lashes down !

I clapped for the carers last night too. Lots of noise, ships horns, fireworks ...amazing .

A sad day for you BlueSapphire .Do have that glass of fizz as you remember all of the lovely times you shared.

I’m loving the puzzles Marydoll keep them coming .

Will go back and catch up with this thread in a while. So many lovely and interesting posts to read I’m gonna need another cuppa.

Have a good whatever day it is today everyone .

love Gillybob xx

Marydoll, pleased you got an Iceland slot, I’ve been on Iceland and Tesco, also ‘vulnerable’list but not moving, in fact can’t find the list on Tesco.to tick for us. Tell me the secret!!

Megs, someone told me to go onto Iceland at 12noon.
They start releasing vulnerable slots then .
At 12:10, a number of slots appeared! I couldn't believe my eyes.

Thankyou, Marydoll, will give it a try, believe it or not I was trying in bed at 6.30 !! How sadisthat??

Good morning everyone. Sun has just shone its face here on the river. As usual on a Friday I will take the toilet cassette on my wagon to empty...oh joy. I have not spoken to anyone in a week. I will probably go to the village shop. Out of mushrooms...needed for the pasta later. Later I will work on my quilt. I think I will sit in the cratch and sew...the river birds will come and visit wanting a tasty snack.... Have a lovely day everyone. Remember...there is an end to this so think positive and smile.

Good morning all from a greyish/bright Glasgow where thankfully the wind has dropped to a calmer day.

Went to collect new scripts for both of us yesterday at our local privately owned pharmacy. One person only allowed in with a floor marker to wait for collection. I have used this pharmacy for years and the owner and staff who are so helpful we’re pleased to accept my individually wrapped box of chocolates and a huge thank you from us. Such a lovely bunch of,people, still welcoming all with a cheery hope you are doing ok and take care. All very quiet at our local shops with what few people were out, smiled but keeping a very safe distance from one another.

Grammaretto. No home remedies this time?. It’s essential now to phone your dentist as you may also need antibiotics to ward off infection.

A good day for gardening to keep me busy and plenty fresh air until I run out of energy?. Windows open to air the house too.

A warm welcome to all newbies?
BlueSaphire a very poignant day for you?

Hope everyone has the best day possible doing whatever gets you through the day.

I phoned the Dentist. He's closed but he's there so is posting penicillin to my local chemist who will deliver it! Sounds good.

Sorry you are still suffering Gilly. It's not what you want when you are isolating.

It may be fine to begin with Marydoll but the cabin fever sets in after a while........ DH isn't dressed yet.

Grammaretto, there aren't enough hours in the day for me!
I'm used to being stuck in!!!
I'm so glad you contacted your dentist!

That does sound good Grammaretto. Hope the penicillin does the trick? Stay safe as you plod on through this surreal, life as we know it at the moment.

Marydoll, many thanks, arranged delivery on Sunday.

Receptionist phoned back to say the Chemist isn't answering their phone. They must be busy!!!! Funny that.
She asked if I have anyone who could collect it? Well, when I last went there, a couple of weeks ago, there was a queue for over an hour, outside. I told her I don't know anyone who I could ask to do that for me but if it doesn't arrive by tonight, I may ask.
