Good Morning Monday

Good morning everyone from sunny Malaga ?Himself has just gone out for his walk. We went for our STROLL at 8pm again last night. He laughs at my pace and asks me if I’m a geisha?

We found if we carried on along the looped back road it widened out into one of those super wide pavements either side of a very wide (no traffic) tarmaced road. You know the sort I mean in Spain! One that doesn’t really ‘go’ anywhere but has kept the workmen busy for a few months setting it all up. It ended with some bollards at a brick wall! Anyway it’s perfect for walking these days as it afforded fantastic social distancing. This will be my evening walk of choice for some time as I felt safe. Masks were worn by some and not others - pretty much 50:50.

Congratulations Pantglas ??. It’s good Mr.P can still make you laugh. Same here! I think a long and happy marriage thrives due to laughter.

I did manage to p.m. BlueSapphire yesterday. She’s had a wobbly time bless but hopes to be back amongst us when she’s feeling a bit stronger.

Morning Blue ? !

Hope Monday is good to us all. Keep safe everyone that’s the main thing. x

Morning everyone from sunny Kent.

I think it's a bit warmer than yesterday. We had to put the fire on about 5.
Sad news yesterday, the first person I knew personally has died of COVID.
Himself will be working on our garden today. He starting back doing his jobs for others tomorrow whilst observing distancing. No cosy cups of tea in the conservatory.
Have a good day, wishing strength to all those with ills and troubles.

Good morning Mick and everyone from a beautiful morning in Cheshire. I'm just checking in for now as I've been up since 5.00 for a supermarket delivery at 6.00 and now I'm bushed! What a palaver getting everything wiped and away, but goodness knows what time the delivery man had to be at work to get to me so early this morning. They are wonderful.

Have the best day you can. for all.

Morning all from a very murky Leicestershire.

Our garden bin is being emptied today!! Troubke is, we have lots of potato tubs waiting to refill it!! And it will be a month before it is done again.

Congratulations pantglas, whatever you are celebrating- enjoy your day.

I will clean the bathrooms today. And video call DD2 and her girls

Fish pie for dinner and I'm making some cauliflower and broccoli soup as I over bought veg!

Enjoy your days as well as you can.

Goodmorning Mick and all x

It is brightening up here in S E Essex.

Nothing planned for today, DD has lots of "craft" projects to start with the 5 yr old so I shall be on baby cuddling duty.

We facetimed one of our ASs yesterday and he showed us that his youngest was now crawling (yes, I cried). Lockdown is beginning to feel like a punishment, I know it is for the benefit of us all, but boy is it hard!!!!

Congratulations The Pantglas's whatever you are celebrating ?

Keep safe and well folks ?

Good morning everyone from a cloudy but dry Inverness. Better weather is on the way again I think ?
Enjoy your Bucks Fizz Pantglas what a lovely way to start the week !
Had a lovely FaceTime chat with DS in Switzerland yesterday, he’d managed to get his haircut last week and was really pleased about that. Still working from home though
Nothing different planned for me today , just an online exercise class , a walk , a potter in the garden and a rest !
Hope everyone finds something to enjoy today and take care especially if you need to go out ?

Looks like it will be a nice day in Oxfordshire
Way to go Pantglas and congratulations
Puzzler61 it is usually a mouse chase that wakes us up but then he gets bored and I end up having to catch it!
Have a good day everyone and best wishes to all

Happy Anniversary Pantglas2 ?
Good morning everyone from sunny West Yorkshire.
Thank you for your kind words yesterday. I really appreciated them, I caught up at bedtime and read through the thread. I went to sleep smiling.
Big cat is eating her breakfast biscuits and I have made a big pot of coffee to take back to bed. I must do some housework at some point or I fear I might be condemned as my mother used to say.
I am getting very fat as well. Time to diet when the cheese and chocolate have been eaten up I think.
Stay safe everyone and special thoughts for all those ill or troubled ?

Good morning everyone from a bright Essex by the sea.
Congratulations Pantglas and MrP ?.
Another day in lockdown land. Some housework, ironing and cooking may be done.
DH has a conference call at 12.30 with his work 'team'. There may be some news about returning to work.
We started watching a series on Net...x last night called The Stranger, looks very promising.
Have the best day you can and stay safe everyone xx

We were woken by our cat ? romping around with one of DH’s practice golf balls. They roll well on a hard floor but they don’t ‘arf make a clatter.
Garden weeding is on my list for today’s jobs. They’re gathering pace popping up everywhere between the shrubs.

DH is doing a short drive to the supermarket and then the chemist for a couple who are shielding. They were a name on a list “who needed help” and they’ve now become our new friends.
No cooking required today - I’ve ordered a delivery from Côte Braserie and we’ll be having confit duck breasts, green beans, creamy spinach and mash,
No celebration as such - but it’s a treat as it’ll be only the 2nd night I’ve not cooked since lockdown. Really looking forward to it.
I hope people who post on gn and have illness or worries start the weak feeling better/lighter.
Take care of yourselves ?

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire. It is really foggy out there this morning.
I have a busy day ahead, I must go to the factory and make some deliveries and then go on to a shift from 2 - 10 at my ‘new’ job. I thrive on being busy. I am hoping that when we get a review of the lockdown next weekend we will at least be able to see our grandchildren. I would put on a spacesuit if it meant I could pick my little treasure up and squeeze him and sniff him. You all know what I mean???
Have a lovely day and stay safe everyone.xx

Happy Anniversary Pantglas2

Nankate May I ask which Spanish course you are doing as I’m thinking of learning. Thank you.

Grey overhead today here in West Berkshire but I think a warm week is on the way .

1950s housewife day today , strip the beds , clean my front step and do a boil wash .

The Daily Bake ( 2020 style ) will be cheese scones made with some spelt flour and blueberry muffins made with fresh blueberries. All performed whilst listening to my latest audible book by Ann Cleeves .
No surprise that there is weight gain going on here too .

On the subject of murder and divorce this ‘ funny ‘ sent from my friend in Oz made me laugh ?

Have a good day everyone.

Happy Anniversary Pantglas and Mr P. ??

Good Morning everyone from Severnside. It’s a dry one and the clouds have spots of brightness.

Not sure what to do today so will probably potter.
I had a bit of a gloomy time late Saturday until yesterday evening when DD and I FaceTimed. She kept changing her looks and making me laugh. She knows what I need.

Have a good day all ?

Good morning All from Worcs. It’s dry and bright and a bit breezy from my bedroom window. Pantglas, Congrats. to you and Mr P, whatever you’re celebrating. I’ll imagine my up of mint tea is a glass of bubbly too. Cheers! ??

What a wonderful picture you paint Pantglas. Is it your Wedding Anniversary or do you often lead the high life and drink Bucks Fizz in bed ? ?? Congratulaions.

Morning Mick and All.

The sun is peaking through in South Bucks today.

Your meal planning sounds good Mick.

Not sure of my plans yet today except to do my short daily Spanish lesson which I am loving. DS has also started the same course as me.

Morning all from a dry and bright north Wales where it’s promising a glorious day?

I’m lolling abed with.....wait for it....not the chamberpot but a flute......of Buck’s Fizz ?!

Himself is rather fetchingly dressed in shorts to show off his tan and apart from the lack of hair and a few scars from his numerous ops, he hasn’t changed a bit! He still laughs me into bed and the word Divorce has never entered my head......Murder? Many times and the only question has been, which weapon is nearest!

I know lots of you have ongoing challenges but for today I’d like to share my champers ? with you all and put a ? on your lovely faces! X
