Good Morning All x. I'm okay, everyone 
Yes, it's been warm-ish here for the past week but have had very little sun with it and I'd actually donned a cardigan in the evenings.
Last night we had the mother of all storms with lightening flashes constantly and thunder rumbling for quite some time as there was no breeze to blow it all away. Heavy rain too.
I must have slept though, albeit a disturbed one.
D and the children set off for Durham on Saturday morning to see their sibling , by trans-pennine train ( 3hrs ) but they weren't too bored and had a full day out together looking around the area and had lunch in a nearby park. After an overnight stay at a Travel-lodge, they were going to go to the cathedral but there was a service on so that was out. They were all back early Sunday evening.
On Thursday D travels there again by herself this time so GS is taking charge of the children and D will be taking the child to see the castle after meeting up with those who do the caring etc., she's the only child there with others being on home release. Her stay there is until November, after that we don't know as yet.
I've also been keeping abreast of my own interest which is a forthcoming appeal of a man who's been in prison for 35 years for a murder he didn't commit----though he'd been found guilty on a 2-10 verdict. The problem being that his defence team weren't given all the applicable files and photographs during trial. If his appeal is successful it'll be the biggest miscarriage of justice this country has ever seen.
Marydoll I'm so glad the big day went well and I'm sure it was enjoyed by all. I must say, I much preferred the setting that had been organised in the garden, more uplifting.
A well-earned rest is now in order.
Hope everyone isn't suffering too much with the heat, ours has been about 8-10 degrees lower here so it's bearable. Right now the sun's out but there's a lovely breeze lifting the voiles here 
Gulls are screeching though ( stormy weather )
Spain and France will be hot too but it's a different kind of heat, ours is more the burning sort somehow. I love the continental heat. Hope those in these areas are well x.
Welsh lamb chops today---can't get enough of them they're delicious and I have some new pots to use up from Sunday so must gather some mint for the chopping of.
Did all the hoovering yesterday so nothing much to do today, I'll make sure of that.
Will catch up as I go along. Hoping everyone's well and remains virus-free xx
Good morning all from a very damp Glasgow.
A very quiet day for me today, (if you believe that, you will believe anything!).
I never made made it back to GN yesterday, it was hectic.
The missing bride and he new husband turned up early morning, just after registering their marriage and then turned up again in the evening with a bag of goodies for me. Do you think she is missing her mum? 
Yesterday was the first time I had to administer my new treatment at home and I made such a hash of it!!! .
Everytime I plucked up courage to inject myself, the door bell or phone rang! The result, I have a painful leg this morning, I couldn't find enough skin to pinch, (TMI), as my legs are too fat!!! .
I got a message from a very old friend, sending her best wishes for the wedding. News travels very fast in our wee town. She told me she had been in hospital during the night unwell and had been tested for Covid. She was sent home and told to isolate for eleven days and wait for the result. She is 76 years old, I'm so very worried for her. I think she thought the guidelines didn't apply to her! 
Three of my friends/ neighbours and partners had been invited to the full wedding, so I spent the afternoon in the cul de sac, delivering wedding goody bags of cake, beer and Prosecco and asked them to toast the happy couple.
Of course I couldn't just hand them over, I had to chat to them and anyone else who walked past! .
As I'm still basically still shielding, like Norsat ?I'm craving company.
The wedding photos: My future DIL has most on her camera, so I planned to post some of mine, once I downloaded to One Drive. However, my Microsoft account has been blocked , due to suspicious activity. I'm the cause of the suspicious activity, for goodness sake. My password and one time only access codes aren't working and I thought I was very tech savvy!!!??
DD has a beautiful dress and shoes, but wants to save them for a big celebration nexxt year, hence the trainers with her new name, embroidered on them. I have asked DH to put my unworn MOB outfit and ENORMOUS hat up the loft, as every time I see it, it reminds me of my daughter's disappointment.
However, I have to say, I have never seen her so happy. She was glowing on Saturday. ?
Gilly, what a disappointment for your wee grandson, he must be so disappointed.
I hope our missing friends are still reading and I'm sending my best wishes.
I hope I haven't missed anyone out. I have brain fog today due to my treatment, at least I didn't have the usual nightmares! ???
Have a good day everyone.
Susan, take heart. This is the sickly baby now! He looks like someone from Braveheart.
Lockdown has done this to him! . He used to go to the gym everyday and his beard was always trimmed! I'm desperate to take a pair of scissors to that beard!
