Wishing Mr&MryMarydoll a Happy Anniversary ?

Good morning from a wet North Berwick. The weather was so nice yesterday so we got a good 10 miles of walking in along the beach and up the volcanic plug that overlooks the town.
Not what we will do today in the rain.
Happy Anniversary Marydoll hope you both have a lovely day.
Take care and stay safe everyone ?

Dark here, doesn't look very promising. Happy anniversary Marydoll. Not much planned for today, sort out paperwork, a bit of sewing, not very exciting! Hope everyone has a good day.

Morning all. It's a cloudy start to the day in North Leicestershire.

Dh and I both had a disturbed night - no idea why - but our cleaner will be here at 9.15 so no time for a slow start.

I have to do an online Sainsbury's shop and an small, actual Waitrose shop. And, I have lots of admin to do.

DH has an optician's appt this pm so I think I'll watch some tv while he is out and possible have a doze.

Sending love and best wishes to everyone with cares.

Good morning everyone from Inverness where it’s just getting light, I can see some blue sky peeping through the clouds but it sounds very windy.
A warm welcome to all our recent new posters on this lovely friendly thread
Had a bit of a drama last night with DH spraying water all over the utility room floor whilst exchanging the water pipes on a new washer. What should have been a quickish simple job turned into a couple of hours mopping and wringing out towels. I was not too pleased!! All forgiven now though and harmony is restored ...
Not a lot planned today except a bit of sorting out summer clothes and sadly putting them away until next year. Later I’m meeting my friend for coffee and a catch up in the local garden centre cafe - I’m looking forward to that
Happy Anniversary to Mr and Mrs marydoll I hope you both thoroughly enjoy your very special day together
Brings back happy memories of many shopping trips in the past to the Trafford Centre mancgirl used to love browsing there ...
Take care everyone whatever the day brings ?

Good morning Mick and all

Grey but dry here in S E Essex we are expecting rain later.

We had a GC sleepover last night so I will
be cooking his breakfast soon (bacon, scrambled eggs and spaghetti followed by a yoghurt) for a 5yr old he likes his breakfasts!

Then it’s bed changing and off to the gym. I might pop into the chemist for some Nytol as I am having trouble sleeping.

Thinking of our absent posters ?

Keep safe and well folks ?‍♀️

Good morning from a dark and rainy Manchester. Had a lovely lunch in the Ribble Valley yesterday with Mr Manc. I had been to see the hygienist in the morning, nearest I can get to a dentist. Can't believe I paid for the pleasure (?!) of having my mouth and teeth pulled about. Ouchie as my 2yo grandson would have said. Today taking returns back to Trafford Centre. Very inconvenient not being able to try things on! I'll be there for opening time and out before it gets busy, not that it seems to these days. Picking gs 1 up from school later. Have a good day everyone. Hugs and flowers for those with extra cares and worries flowers

Good morning everyone from a cloudy Essex by the sea. It's not quite as cold as at the beginning of the week. Must try and get out somewhere today, I didn't leave home at all yesterday.
My 4, 5 next week, granddaughter came home from school on Monday with a very swollen and bruised finger. It was worse yesterday so my daughter was advised to go to the minor injuries unit where it was x-rayed. Not broken but badly sprained. It's been strapped up. Apparently my DGD was a little star and went in to the x-ray room on her own.
Have the best Wednesday you can and stay safe xx

Good morning from Malta where another hot day is beginning.

Apparently we had an earth tremor at 3am, it seems a lot of people were woken by shaking and things rattling around. Fortunately, the earth didn’t move for me as I was sound asleep!grin

Hope everyone has as good a day as possible, especially those who are facing challenges of one sort or another.☀️

Also meant to wish everyone a good day today x

Good morning from Derbyshire where it's currently dry and bright before the rain starts later.

Farrier appointment for the horses at 8am, so I'll be off out soon. Then later I'll make some more face masks and do some holiday prep for next week.

Sorry LauraNorder - I’ve only just seen your other questions. I joined this daily thread a week ago.

Normally, Toads Theatre Company produces 10 plays a year but we’ve recently decided to cancel all productions until next Spring at the earliest. There is no provision for amateur companies to operate within current guidelines, sadly.

Past (usually minor!) rôles have included various period dramas, including Shakespeare, Victorian Music Hall, etc. Favourite recent rôles were as the French mistress in “Daisy Pulls It Off” and the nasty cat in “Babe, the Sheep Pig”.

Good morning Mick and all from a pretty dark S Hants, rain expected in a few hours. Yesterday was an organising day, two new front door keys cut, arranged for gutters to be cleared out and got a letter for normal mammogram, appointment made.
Today I need to get some winter colour for my front door pot and a hanging basket, frittata for dinner. Have a good day all.

Ashcombe Wed 30-Sept-20 07:01:57

We are about 30 miles NE of Le Mans, so our weather is generally warmer than in the UK in Summer but colder in Winter. Yesterday was cloudy but warm enough for a pre dinner glass of wine on the terrace.

Good morning Mick and All.

Pink clouds in South Bucks.

My friend is an artist and she is going to give me a distanced first lesson in pastel drawing this morning what fun.

Lovely to have you back with us Bellasnana ?

Sark Wed 30-Sept-20 06:43:26

Good Morning everyone.
Dry and still pretty dark here in Oxfordshire but forecast rain later.
Usual work day and an exercise class this evening.

Have a good day and stay safe

Good morning all from N Bucks - as you say Mick - dark but dry. Not sure what today will bring - my new specs would be nice!
Especially for those who may have had a bad night, wishing you a peaceful day and some respite from your aches or worries

Hello everyone from south Cornwall. Dark and rainy here, but there's a gentle breeze coming through the window beside my bed. Been awake for ages due to pain, and trying Radio 3 instead of Classic FM as I'm fed up with the constant Covid reminders on their adverts. But it may be a bit highbrow for me! May venture out for a coffee this morning, then scurry back to continue knitting a beret and watch a film or two. (Actually plod back - I haven't scurried for a while now. smile) The best of days to you all.

LauraNorder Wed 30-Sept-20 06:35:26

Didn't realise you are new to the thread Ashcombe because I am a recent morninger too, so welcome. Do you have a part in The Ladykillers?

LauraNorder Wed 30-Sept-20 06:32:36

Spice101 hope things get better in Melbourne soon, sounds pretty grim.
Ashcombe whereabouts in France are you? Hope it's warm and sunny today.
Beechnut good luck with sewing, hope the dress makes it to the wedding in due course.

Ashcombe Wed 30-Sept-20 06:31:06

Beechnut
Thank you!
