Good Morning Saturday

Good morning from a stormy looking North Leicestershire.

We had a lovely walk with DD2 and family yesterday although it did rain quite a bit. We are going to sit in DD1's garden this morning (probably in the rain) which means we will have seen all 3 daughters and their families in the last week. We have not seen either of the boys for a while though.

We had steak and chips with wine jus last night, nortsat, but with garlic mushrooms. It was delicious. Take away tonight!

Sending best wishes to all.

Good Morning all, my it’s stormy out there ! I don’t really go anywhere at the moment so just another day to watch the weather from my armchair

Good morning Mick (a large breakfast this morning ... yum) and the GM team from east London where it is still dark. I had a yuk day yesterday so hope today will be better.

Did some housework and had a good session in the bathroom with the Viakal. On line grocery order, some cleaning and a walk today.

Thinking of MrGrammaretto, Dragonfly, the Panaches and Cherry. Hoping Marydoll had a decent night and good morning to gilly, if she’s reading.

It’s film night tonight for us. I am cooking steak with red wine jus, chips and asparagus and hooray it’s a ‘wine night’.

The wardrobe clearout is progressing, I have sold 20 items on eBay ... and bought myself a gold bangle, with the money. I plan to list some more over the weekend.

Thinking of those who are facing challenges today and wishing everyone a good day ? Happy Halloween to those families who are participating ( today would be my lovely mother’s birthday... so I am thinking of her ).

Good morning everyone from Malaga where it’s cloudy but warm.

I thought I’d be one of the first in but found 10 of you in front of me!

6 years ago this afternoon we took (slightly) early retirement. Himself did some sums on the back of an envelope and we decided to risk it for a biscuit. Best decision we ever made!

Hope Saturday is kind to us all. Keep safe everyone that’s the main thing. x

Good morning from a very grey Essex by the sea. I do believe rain and strong winds are forecast for later, deep joy !
I need to go and buy some more embroidery silks this morning. I have discovered cross Stitch and I'm making some small pictures for our granddaughters for Christmas. I've finished two, have started two more and have another two to do after that. Three unicorns, two ballerinas and something to do with Harry Potter for the last one. I think I have found my crafting niche !!!!!
DH will be watching back to back Rugby this afternoon and I am expecting a call from DD2 for a catch up.
Have the best Saturday you can, for all those with worries or sadness and please stay safe everyone xx

Good Morning Mick and all. It is still dark but dry here on the South Welsh coast. We went for a walk yesterday afternoon after the rain eased. The tide was in, sea was battleship grey and very rough. It was very strange seeing the car park empty and the gates padlocked. We are about halfway through our Lockdown here in Wales. Our little family's planned trip to a pumpkin farm was cancelled because of the restrictions.

A fruit and veg delivery to wash later and a pasta dish to prepare for tonight. Enjoy your rail trip Susan we would love to do that. Lovely to read Ellan's posts as always.
Have a pleasant and safe day.

Morning Mick, morning All. Wet and windy in our corner of Somerset.. Anther disturbed night for me, so a bit of a wreck this morning. Garden centre trip for us fhen some much needed tidying. I’m sure things walk round on their own here. Take care everyone

Good morning, everyone from wet and windy Torbay!
Here’s a pumpkin for you, Beechnut! ?

My DGD is eight today so we will enjoy sharing some Zoom time this morning. Yes, a Hallowe’en baby! I’m usually with them to celebrate but they are in Tier 2 so not this year.
This afternoon our theatre company
www.toadslittletheatre.co.uk
is staging a socially distanced performance for an audience of invited guests. Our normal auditorium capacity is 240 but we are limiting the nos. to 50. Temperature checks will be made, masks worn and seating marked out to keep people apart. I’m a steward on the Front of House team so it will be an interesting experience!

The photo shows our beloved theatre, a converted church.
Happy weekend, folks!

Good morning from Shropshire where it’s dry at the moment.

An exciting day planned today!Ages ago we booked a trip on the Statesman Carlisle to Settle circular.We were sure it would be cancelled but received our tickets a couple of days ago.A bit daunting as we haven’t mixed outside our bubble since March not that we will be mixing!We have been assured it will be very safe,we have a table for four in first class for the two of us with sanitiser and screens provided.

I am not taking the iPad so will ‘see’ you all tomorrow.Its a long time since me and the iPad have been apart??

Wishing everyone a good day.Thoughts to all with anxieties,illness and worries.Thinking of gilly,Grammaretto and Cherry?Mary,I hope your appointment went well yesterday?

We’re NOT ?

Beech, you should come here, we have fields of pumpkins ?. Sadly the squash were as successful this year.

Good morning from a dawning E Kent. Weather? Who knows? Probably wet and stormy.
Had a lovely long chat to my young friend. Her son has Asperger and is nearly 19, very intelligent, can’t multi task but is doing catering and cabinet making at the moment. She is very worried for his future. Gave her advice, but he’s not my child...
Curiously, all my DCs are in isolation and coming out this weekend. Hope none of them develop CV.
Got an online Q&A patchwork course today. Should be interesting. Something to look forward to.
To the poorly and sad, be kind to yourselves. Everyone, please stay safe.

Good Morning everyone from Severnside. Dark and wet. Not a good forecast for today. I’m going to put my Halloween display on the windowsill indoors, otherwise I will have a soggy mess. I will be able to enjoy it as well.

Other than that it’s a card making day and pottering to do.

Take care all and have the best day you can ??I couldn’t find a pumpkin so it’ll have to be an orange ball of wool ?
