Good Morning All x
Fine but some cloud around which could disperse if it warms up, hopefully as a nice bright day makes all the difference.
It's been a strange few days without any means of contact apart from emails. I wrote a stiff letter to the phone company and realised I didn't have a stamp----I do miss the post office since it closed down 6 months ago.
Just one more sleep and hopefully it'll be fixed tomorrow afternoon.
Window cleaning this morning, sun's shining on the patio windows and they're looking streaky. It must be all of 3 weeks since they were done. Nets to be washed as well.
Lazy dinner today, chicken, ham and leek pie from M&S new pots and froz mixed veg. Don't know what's for afters but I 'll think of something. Same tomorrow with the other half of the pie.
Sorry about you poorly ladies, rest as much as you can.
Thoughts to our other ladies who can't be with us xx.
What a beautiful bed cover GrandMattie, you clever girl, it's lush. You haven't wasted any time during lockdown 
It's a work of art.
Stomach's rumbling for my crumpets now so I'll bid you all a good day and stay safe everyone. xx
Urmston, yes, I had crumpets in the freezer up until last week so it's time for another stock up, as well as Lurpak which a 250g size doesn't even last me a week and corner shops don't stock 750g tubs 
It's not that I'm greedy---I just like a lot
Good morning all from sunny N. Bucks. How glad am I that I live in a place where I can walk Hattie round the village at 4 in the morning in pj’s and a jacket, in an attempt to get her to wee?
She had a more peaceful night/morning after and has done a small wee in the garden now, but there is clearly a problem as she is off her food and stretching her back legs out behind her a lot (associated with digestive or kidney issues according to dr Google)
She did not have a temperature when at the vets yesterday but the vet agreed something is up.
See how today goes, I’d rather avoid the emergency vet if I can as the blood tests etc will come back to our regular vet who is in charge of any investigation. Sleeping in the sun now, hope she is comfortable. I am evil Mum because I have syringed ground down paracetamol (prescribed form her) with water into her mouth and got a hard look. Gracie would have had my hand off but Hattie is just so trusting - until the next time!
Have a lovely Anniversary day GrannyGravy13 xx
Good morning everyone from another very hot South of France morning.
Happy Anniversary to the Gravies - have a super lunch. What a talent GrandMattie and thank you for sharing.
Emergency Ward 10 is badly in need of the beds so can all the poorly souls just get better now, please? Urmston are you taking Imodium? Try not eating for 24 hours and maybe drink lots of flat Coke, if you don’t have rehydration salts, cos you’ll feel wobbly otherwise. Kitty finally! Now maybe with the pills, you’ll start to feel much better. Sorry that cough’s back Mary. Can you find a sitting-down activity today? Hattie please get better and stop worrying your Mum. Grandmabatty hope that darling boy has cheered you. Shame about the sleep, but I reckon it’s a price we willingly pay for precious time with the littlies!
Taichinan , sad for your family’s loss.
I felt quite down yesterday when I learned that Terence Conran had sadly passed away. I knew him well and he had a wonderfully fulfilling life. But I also felt the loss of a time in my own life when everything was ahead, there was so much to get excited about and the world was a very different place. Thinking that The Last Night of the Proms would provide some cheer, it had quite the reverse effect ?. No, that particular traditional event for me is hardly the same without the audience. The empty Hall, the valiant little outside groups, the distanced choir and musicians...oh dear! The music was superb and the background filming , but served only to make me very sad and feel a bit hopeless. Olympics, football matches, carnivals, huge celebrations of all kinds..... hardly the same without our presence and participation. Ah well ?
So glad that late summer sunshine continues for GMers - in the the South. Don’t forget the Vit.D top ups that this will offer, so garden meet ups and cake and coffees must be top of the list at least for a while. Lazy day for me today. We may go for a walk early evening when it’s cooler and I have some emails to catch up on. Otherwise, a book, a sun lounger and a hat beckons, I think.
Have your best day of the week, all. Remember when Sunday was a day of rest? Whatever you do, please keep safe.
Hugs

Windy Fife again this morning. DH has gone tour guiding so I hope he doesn't get blown into the sea! Making French Onion Soup for lunch today, to warm us up on an autumnal day.
What a beautiful quilt GrandMattie. It looks perfect.
Did you buy anything nice online Feelingmyage55??
Have a good day everyone
