Good Morning Monday

Good morning all from wet Harrogate. I hope Grandmabatty your Dgs appreciates the table and chair, I got a colourful plastic desk for GD to eat from, but she informed me "i'm not a fan of yellow, red, blue and white" Just happens to be the colours of the desk!! I nearly told her I'm not a fan of fussy little girls!!
Scentia you have my sympathies, how old is your GS awake at that time? I would have murdered him!! Fortunately I don't have either of my GC to stay overnight, GD is the one that wakes up early (5am) and wants to start the day then. GS is quite happy snuggling with whoever will snuggle back!

Hope will soon see Gilly & co back on GN hope all others are feeling good.

Marydoll what happened to protecting the vulnerable? A pharmacy that doesn’t deliver isn’t customer friendly. Very surprised that they don’t!
Well done on the spray painting.
I’m still feeling under the weather today so lots of fluids and stay close to the loo. DH still sleeping so house is quiet for a wee while.
Overcast here in Kent and 12C.
Need to get something off my ( substantial) chest.....
Anyone else get angry when they see pics of their ex husband with the DS, DDIL and DGDs? I was looking at FB and up came pics of DIL 30th birthday on Saturday. In amongst them was ‘him”, arms round them. Never mind Covid regs, I said a bad word - much to DH surprise. ( I’m not one for swearing usually) . We divorced 35 years ago because he was convicted of indecent assaults on four separate occasions over three years. AIBU to be worried when I see him around DILs friends ( pre Covid)? DS knows about his convictions, don’t know if DIL does - probably not.

DH says don’t let it get to you but I can’t help my reaction.

Sorry folks to get all serious but I would be interested in what others response might be.

Have a good day all! ?

Good Morning from a grey, damp mid Cornwall. The sky is trying to lighten. I wish my heart would. Another sad call from my daughter yesterday. Despite her area with its current 0-2 cases they are affected by Warrington being under tighter restrictions. Wonder when I will see her and GD again. Not this year. I fear.

So tired last night. Had nearly 10 hours sleep! Need to muster some energy to take Mya (dog) out for a walk, DH is bravely continuing to fill in trenches. He's determined to do the job himself.

Good Morning All x
Heavy skies today after yesterdays sunshiney day when I had washing out blowing merrily.

Had a lovely long phone conversation this morning with a friend, always enlightening but holds me back a bit as I'm not usually washed and dressed----but what's the hurry ?

It looks as though my newspaper has gone into the wrong place again ( rolls eyes ) I can't be doing with this so I'm going to cancel my subscription and read it online instead.

Waiting for restrictions in my little corner of the world. Although I'm not in Liverpool----there's the tunnel with much to-ing and fro-ing into the area so a constant flow of germs hither and thither. We'll see.

I did enjoy my chicken dinner yesterday but was listening to the sprouts and mushy peas rumbling around in my tum last night as I was getting off to sleep I tend to be a bit over indulgent and pay for it next day. Ah well, I can see twice as far now

Chicken sandwiches today on Hovis for something lighter on the digestive system. I'll bake some scones for afters as I've got some plain flour left in the cupboard.

Nothing on the agenda for today, I just take each day as it comes really. A bit of tidying up is in order as I'd hoovered through yesterday so that doesn't need doing for a few more days.

Cold sores, something I've never had and wouldn't like either. Poor Scentia, so uncomfortable and irritating I'm sure. As someone already mentioned---Zovirax is the treatment advertised. I think Bonjela also make a solution too.

A lovely pair of feet there Urmston, very professionally done nail polish too. It's so important to look after the feet.

Hoping this finds everyone well and ready for a new week. Thoughts to those who aren't well and who are struggling during these bad times. xx Gilly x

Enjoy the day, take care and stay safe.

Posted too soon - we are having provider problems!

Taking DD2 to the Dentist later. The Surgery’s accessible, but parking’s a different matter. I’ll drop her off and park where I can - There are only 2 disabled bays nearby, but 1 is often used by a flash BMW at the Vape Shop. Where’s a Traffic Warden when you need one?

Friend’s 65th birthday today, so a quick foray into M&S and I’ll leave flowers and fizz beside her back door. Usually we’d go out for a meal and a glass or 3 and put the World to rights, but that will have to wait until we are ‘released’.

Hope everyone has the best day today. X

What’s this about the doghouse 4 ?
Sounds as though they are being missed?

Good morning from Durham. A spectacular sunrise followed by torrential rain!

Love in the dark2, I must say that applies to more than the Doghouse 4, must pay more attention in future ??

Oops its megs36 who, like me, should be in the in the dark 2. Not Parsley. She knows who they are and possibly, what they did

Good morning Mick and everyone from a rather gloomy S Wales.
A rather boring day ahead as I need to catch up with washing, cleaning etc. It's time to change to the autumn duvet as well, nights are getting chilly.

I wondered the other day if anyone had heard from gillybob and I may have missed a reply, but I am concerned that there haven't been any posts from her lately. I may have missed them, but if anyone has news perhaps you could pm me?

Good morning from a very grey Malta. It seems the predicted thunderstorms are on the way.

I’m so late this morning having slept in, no doubt due to all the excitement of watching Nadal make mincemeat of Djokovic. I cried when he won as I was so happy for him!

Haven’t had time to read the threads yet so hope everyone is doing well, especially annsixty who, I believe ,is already home from hospital.

I need to pop to the shops for dog food but the threatening weather is putting me off. Maybe it will clear later.?

Wishing you all the best day possible. I’m going to miss watching the tennis. It has been two weeks of great entertainment. ☀️

I thought I was the only one who doesn't know who the doghouse4 are.
Parsley4 maybe you and I should become the *in the dark 2*

Susieflo love that photo. We adore Pembrokeshire - lived at Manorbier for a while as well as many holidays - and have walked a lot of the coast path over the years. We’ve left a little bit of our hearts there!

Good morning from a dark, wet Newcastle. As Annapops in County Durham says, it really matches the mood in the NE at the moment. We are waiting for the latest round of restrictions to be announced and it's difficult not to feel just a bit fed up.
We will get through it, though.
I hope everyone has a good day, wherever you are and whatever you do, especiall those with health and other worries.

Good morning to everyone and especially to the Doghouse 4 who are much missed. Haste ye back!

Marydoll, What am I missing here, who or what are the Doghouse 4? I must admit I tend to scan the posts maybe I should rake more notice.

Morning all from an overcast South Notts. Hope to go out for a little drive later and then I'll please myself. Maybe just a little housework then maybe reading and sewing. I'm not far from a Covid hotspot so will only venture out for necessaries.

Hope all is well with everyone especially those with worries or illness.

Good morning,

It's a grey, drizzly morning today, but not too cold for the moment.

A few chores to complete today, but not venturing too far as I'm still waiting for some of the electrical work to be completed and they ring just before they are coming so I'm never sure when it will be. Still, if I'm out, I'm out and they will have to ring back.

Thinking of our missing GM's ?.

Take care one and all.

Good morning all. Dark and wet in Pembrokeshire today. May go off in car to St Ann’s Head later with flask and book. Need a rest, walked over 7 miles yesterday on coastal path from Marloes. Beautiful though.

Good morning all. It's a gloomy wet day on the Angus coast - completely uninspiring, and totally still. I don't know what I shall do, but the kitchen needs a blitz, and so does the ironing pile, and neither prospect fills me with joy! Yesterday was glorious, though, and I shall bask in the memory of that and be thankful that a boring gloomy day is the worst of my worries. Now for a lovely big mug of coffee and a proper read through all the posts. Make the best of what today brings everybody, and special thoughts for those of you with real worries (not just the weather). Take care, stay safe and ?. ???

Good Morning everyone. Brilliant sunshine and skies plus a wild wind in S of France land. Empty diary this week has turned into Vet visit, Pool pump service, electrician visit, all today - and it’s only Monday!

Hope your DH’s getting over a nasty fall, GrannyOwl, that your sleep is good, Ann and safely home is lovely - even if you’ve now got some work to do. Hope you feel ok now, AuntieFlo. Scentia - remember to have some rest?

I’m off to hang out curtains - maybe need a weight belt and divers’ boots ????

Keep busy, all. Keep distracted and smiling and occupied and let’s make rude gestures in the direction of COVID. Things will get better, so please don’t give up.

Warm hugs from ????

Good morning all from a wet County Durham. I'm sure the rest of us living up North are experiencing much of the same. Matches the mood of the day and what else may come.

We're off to Gibside today with GD2. I'm sure she will brighten our day. DH did have second thoughts regarding the weather but then he had the bright idea of us all taking our own umbrellas. Needless to say little GD is delighted. We shall be singing in the rain!

Wishing all, and especially my local GNs the best day possible. Fingers crossed the news today will offer some guidance, help and reassurance to get us out of this mess. I live in hope.

Good morning all, grey here after a nice sunny day yesterday. Must make another loaf this morning, we have a bread machine, bread doesn't last long here! Sewing class this afternoon, I will be on my own with my teacher as the other pupil is away. Hope to finish off my coat and trousers. Hello to Doghouse 4, what IS going on, Gransnet never used to be like this?!

Oh for goodness sake, I wrote pootle bl***y autocorrect.?

Good morning everyone from north Kent where it is cloudy but dry at the moment.
DH is recovering from his fall - swelling on his face reduced and the other cuts and grazes healing. DD and family called in yesterday to inspect the damage; Grandsons checked every injury with meticulous attention then went off up the garden to swing in the trees and squabble over the football.
Will finish planting the bulbs today; have several pots lined up which I did think about spray painting (thanks for the idea Marydoll) but as I usually cover everything within the vicinity including myself with paint decided not to.
Best wishes to those with illnesses and worries and the Doghouse4. Have a good day everyone. Stay safe
