Good Morning Saturday

Oh Nortsat there are wonderful videos On YouTube of cats riding round the room on robot vacuum cleaners - I hope your moggy will love it! ??

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. The sun has found its way out in this bit of South Yorkshire so I will send some to *Maple’s” bit immediately! DH was poorly all day yesterday - a reaction to his flu jab - but is a lot brighter this morning. He’s had reactions before but never this bad. We are supposed to be having tea with DD and her menfolk this evening. Looks like I may have to drive Big Bertha?! Now where’s the hand brake? Oh! There isn’t one! What’s this button for.....? Ah! That’ll be the ejector seat, then!!!!
Get well soon, Kitty and Urmston. Have a good safe day folks.

Good morning all - sorry to hear of poorly people so much sympathy to Kittylester and urmstongran on your debilitating complaints.

I am feeling very deflated at the rise in Covid cases, I suppose like the rest of us I had thought that with common sense and taking care, we could now enjoy a limited return to normality. Especially feeling for my Birmingham family, one GS has his 11-plus today ???and his brother has an actual football match for Birmingham City under 8’s against Notts (County? Forest?) on Sunday, that is if it isn’t called off. He lives for his football and the team ethic is so good for him.
I feel frustrated for them that D is expected to be with 1000 teenagers every day, without a mask or any PPE but the kids can’t have their friends over to play in the garden.
On a brighter note I am hoping Mr Postie will bring a nice new coatigan I have ordered - cue heatwave of course!
So, not the place for a moan, so I will just wish you all a pleasant day.

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. Cool but not raining. Yesterday was a washout until late afternoon. I have found frogs in an accidental pond (a plastic tray filled with water, tucked partly underneath a caravan in our garden) So that lack of garden tidying has its advantages - I love frogs

I should tackle the garden this weekend.
I have just spent far too much on 3 yr old DGD's birthday present of a gardening set. They can see us grans coming.

Hope all those with ailments are quickly cured. Have a good weekend everyone.

Good morning all, bright here and no wind which is good as DH needs to open up the bees. However his arthritis is playing up so it might have to be me! I don't go near them unless I have to! Hope all those who are feeling rough get better soon.

Morning from a locked down S Lanarkshire, as anticipated no one now allowed in anyone else’s house.
It’s hard not to feel down about it but I am looking at the terrible situation the refugees in Lesbos are enduring and trying to get it in perspective.
Hope Urmstongran and Kittylester recover quickly and that Grandmabatty gets back ‘on the up’
Have a good day everyone

Good morning Mick and the GM team from an overcast east London.

We got our robot vacuum cleaner going yesterday and it hoovered the downstairs. It filled its dust box, so it picked up quite a lot. It got stuck once between the fender and the sofa. I think when we are more used to it and it has fully mapped the house, it should be quite a boon. (Our cats haven’t seen it yet, not sure how that will go down).

On line grocery order today.
Then a film and a bottle of wine tonight.

One of the headlines in the Guardian this morning said that Sir David King, former chief scientific advisor to the Govt has warned that the country is on a ‘knife edge’ with the surge in the number of CV19 cases.
We need to dig deep GM’s and stay safe.

Thinking of Bluesapphire, Dragonfly and gilly and ? for those who need them. Have a lovely day, all

Good Morning Mick and all . A dry and bright start here on the S Welsh coast. DD's 12 week old puppy is going for his first walk outside today. I might tag along to see how he does, he's a sniffer so I m not sure we'll get very far! Hope Urmston and Kitty feel better soon. Take care everyone.

Good Morning All

Have been on a short walk today the first since a difficult procedure two weeks ago. I need to get fit again. Needless to say the rain is threatening but not too cold and due to improve later.
I too improved after yesterday"s support on here. Remarkable.

Good morning from a sunny, windy Morecambe Bay.
Sorry to hear you are both Kitty and Urmston are in the sick bay, get well soon both.
We were going to take little Miss who is staying with us over to Fleetwood on the little boat that runs across the estuary, but it’s low tide at the time we would want it so it plan B. This probably means taking her to the prom so she can ride her new little bike. Take care and stay safe everyone ?

Good morning everyone is it Saturday already? The suns shining here onthe east coast of Fife although with my bedroom window open wide to the elements there appeared to be a cold north wind blowing through. Me I’m just going to have a rest day I’ve been very fortunate to have been out for lunch with my these past few days however I’m feeling quite tired.

Good morning All. It's cloudy and breezy. I'm off to do a shop and later dgs is having a sleep over. That means an early rise. I hope he sleeps through the night though. Fingers crossed. The elements for my decoupage class on Monday are being delivered today. I've been feeling a bit down for a few days. So I'm trying to busy myself to get out of it. Have a good weekend all.

Good morning from sunny Colchester.
Spending the day rearranging future plans because of changes brought about by the Covid announcements. No doubt they'll be changed again before long.
We're in for a mini heatwave here so I'll be raising a glass in the garden later.

Good morning from a bright but chilly South Yorkshire.

Afternoon tea is booked for today - it had to be postponed due to Covid. We had two afternoon tea vouchers as Christmas gifts and this is the second one.

I do hope you both soon feel better, kitty and urms ?.

Thinking of our absent GM's and hope they are feeling stronger with each passing day. ?

Take care folks.

Good Morning Mick and all his followers. Bright and a bit breezy in Suffolk this morning. I am thinking that if it is darker when you get up, then maybe you should stay in bed a bit longer? ?
Get well soon Urmstongran & Kitty. Any issues here are caused by overindulgence in rhubarb and date cake!
It is the village litter pick this morning so boots and gardening gloves are the order of the day. To be honest, I can’t remember seeing any litter so it may not be too arduous.
I hope today is kind to everyone.

Thanks everyone. I know to keep hydrating it just that doing so necessitates a dash somewhere ...
?

Sorry you’ve joined me in the sick bay kitty.

Marydoll I think you or Maw ought to be matron as messing about would not be tolerated!

UTIs are horrible, ktty, hope you can get help soon. Urms, trust it’s only a 24 hour bug. Get well soon both of you

Sorry to hear you are both under the weather Kitty and Urms, get well soon x

Good morning from a bright and sunny Essex by the sea.
Absolutely nothing planned for today. DH is going to look at a boat he may jointly buy with a friend. Nothing grand, a small motor boat, but it will give him something to do now he is retired.
We will probably go for a walk and stop for coffee somewhere.
Have the best Saturday you can and stay safe xx

Hope you’re feeling better soon kitty ?

Good morning everyone from a bright dry Inverness with lovely blue sky - it’s quite cool though with a definite nip in the air
We got our smart heating controls fitted yesterday by a lovely helpful electrician - it’ll make such a difference in the winter so really pleased with that.
I think it’ll be a quiet day for me today as DD2 is busy so I know there won’t be any unexpected phone calls asking if I’m doing anything much ...
Your canopies ? sound delicious pants just what’s needed with a class of something chilled in the Spanish sunshine - ooooh how I envy you !
Hope you’re feeling much better soon urmstongran
Thinking of everyone whose plans have been disrupted with the new Covid rules ?
Hope everyone finds something to enjoy today and take care whatever the day brings

I think we will need to open a sick bay! Who will be Matron? ? ??
Hope you get it sorted, Kitty.

Why do we always feel our worst at weekends?.☹️

Good morning all. Nice blue sky here in Essex. Little pooch is racing around the garden - I think a Fox is about.

Not much on today. DH and no.1 Son will be going to a local footie match this afternoon. I will do some baking and read the papers.

I too love canapés and like you Marydoll could just eat those and forget the main meal. Lovely with cocktails Pantglas enjoy!

So nice to hear from you Spice101 and all your news from Melbourne. Your corona cases are coming down, as ours are going up. I expect you’ve heard our latest news of just 6 people meeting up. ?.

Hope you all have a day you wish for. ??

Morning all from a bright ish North Leicestershire.

Can I join you in the sick bay urmston? I'm fairly sure I have a UTI, so a call to 111 is in order. There is also thawed chicken waiting to be curried and gardening that needs doing.

Enjoy your days everyone!

Good morning Mick and all

Blue sky overhead but there are some grey clouds in the distance.

Absolutely no plans for today, hope you are feeling better soon Urmstongran

Keep safe and well folks ?‍♀️
