Happy Birthday Ginny have the loveliest day you can ???
Good Morning everyone from Severnside where it’s bright and dry.

Yesterday I was meant to be going on a mystery trip and the mystery was.....it wasn’t going to happen ?

I’m very much looking forward to seeing my DD later and she’s bringing her dog.

Wishing you all well ?

Good morning Mick and All from cloudy Worcs.

It’s warming up again - hearing did not kick in. Should be 24 deg. on Wednesday so summer clothes will be back at the front of my wardrobe.

Settling into new way of exercise - doing a short drive and then walking. It makes such a change and we have so much countryside around us. Avoiding so-called ‘beauty spots’ to avoid any weekend crowds.

I have a pile of apples to stew and make a pie or a crumble. I’ll let DH choose which. And a roast for evening meal - leg of lamb and roastie potatoes, carrot&swede mash, green beans, mint sauce ....... looking forward to that.

Wishing everyone a peaceful, relaxing Sunday. Enjoy however much or however little you’ll all be doing today. ?

Good morning Mick and everyone from Cheshire. It's a grey start to the day, but yesterday began like this and turned into a glorious day.

Well, it's my birthday and spending the day alone seems odd but hey, I'm here and that's all good. Netflix Party sounds interesting Feelingmyage55 and DD has it too so I'm going to investigate that.

I'm so lucky to have lovely neighbours and we usually go out for a meal on each other's birthdays. I usually have a special trip somewhere nice with my sister too, so that's not going to happen. Enough of this pity party! I know there will be video calls and that will be good. DD is talking about me flying out to them when flights begin, but I'm not sure.

Walking in the woods at 9.00 which I love and it sets me up for the day and then I'm going to bake for the freezer. I messed up the supermarket delivery date and what I hoped for tomorrow now won't arrive till Friday, so if it's not in the freezer, it's not on the menu.

Warm wishes to all especially those with illness or worries. Stay safe whatever you may be planning. flowers for all.

Good morning all from sunny West Berkshire.

Off for a drive today , not sure where yet but as it will involve a walk in a different place I’m not bothered where it is . Out of the village anywhere will be good .

First Zoom session tonight for a quiz which should be good .

Have a safe day everyone.

Good morning from Malta where it looks bright, it is already warm, and the birds are singing.

No plans apart from binge watching Columbo! I’ve seen them all before but it takes me back to when I used to watch it in the 70’s.

Taichinan, I was interested to hear you had lived in Malta. Was your DH in the forces? My mum used to live in Bugibba as well, in the days when it was a sleepy fishing village. It now resembles Blackpool on a bad day.

Have you ever been back at all? It has certainly changed a great deal, not all for the better, but there is still nowhere else I would rather live.

Have as good a day as possible everyone.sunshine

Morning all.
After a dull, chilly day yesterday, today looks bright and warmer in E Kent.
Getting ready for the decorator to move in tomorrow, paid for by the house insurance. Hate all the sorting out and tidying up.

Morning Mick, morning All. Cloudy start to the day in our corner of Somerset. Should finish my filing system reorganisation fairly quickly this morning. Nothing else planned other than a couple of phone calls. Roast beef this evening, Mr C’s favourite. Be gentle with yourselves everyone, life can feel hard going just now.

Good morning. Very dull outside in the north of Scotland here. The church service will be using utube as has become the norm for these strange times but it is wonderful to be able to get together virtually. I might footer a little in the garden and later I will be on Netflix Party with some of the faraway family. I have a very special bar of chocolate which I won’t have to share?
Have the best day you can everyone and put your worries or troubles aside for the day if you can.

Good Morning Everyone,
Its looking likes its just about to brighten up ,and have a reasonable warm day.
Today, I have got up washed, shaved ,showered and weighed myself.
I always take my electric meter reading on a Sunday, and do a weekly usage comparison .
Mind you its creeping up slightly as I am using more, under normal circumstances it would not be the case.
Take Care ,
Mick
