Good morning from a grey E Kent.
Nothing to report except a podiatrist appointment a.m. and optometrist this p.m.
Stay well, stay safe.

Good Morning all from a wet Severnside.

Last night a squirrel was sat on my headboard chewing the plastic tube packet from an ice pop/pole. A bit later I could feel him mooching about on the bed and I was praying he wasn’t under the covers, then he startled me as he jumped on my head. I woke up and just to be sure put the light on and looked around the room. ?

I’m making a sausage casserole today for when my daughter comes. We are going to do some Christmas crafting together.

Have the best day you can all and thinking of missing good morningers ?

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire where it is still dark and feels mild.
An ordinary day at work today.
I am feeling lots of pains from my arthritis in the last week or so and I am now convinced I only have the condition in the winter! Is it real that it is worse in the cold?
I upset my DH last night saying how he was selfish and always had been, his response was “how can I be selfish, I do loads of tidying up and I just made my own dinner”. I decided not to explain what being selfless was, didn’t want to make it worse??
Now folks, try and have the best day you can and stay safe.❤️

Good morning from a very dark and damp Berks, not much to do today, but I might try to find all of the Christmas presents that I’ve bought during the year and make some lists for more. Or I might not bother yet, it seems so early, but there isn’t much else to do apart from the dreaded cleaning.
Sorry to hear about your bad Car Insurance experience Ashcombe, sadly we only find out how good they are when we really need them to step up.
Take care everyone.

Good morning. Dark and damp here in South Wales. Just come out of our lockdown but I dont plan on venturing into shopping areas. Buying local as much as we can. Luckily we live in a rural area so will be keeping to local dog walks for fresh air and excercise. Working from home has mixed benefits. Keep safe everyone.

Good morning Mick and everyone from a peaceful, dryish Torbay!

dragonfly: good luck at the hospital!

First of all, my sincere thanks for all the kind, supportive comments on here, following my shunt in the car on Sunday. Having spoken positively about the insurance company initially, yesterday’s experience was less impressive.

First the repair shop rang me to ask the whereabouts of the car, (I didn’t know - in a secure pound somewhere!) then said no hire car was available. This led to Enterprise being in touch with whom I’ve not had the best experience in the past. There seemed to be a problem tracing the other driver’s insurance company. Eventually, the owner of the car, who wasn’t driving it on the day, rang me. It was only when I passed on his details to LV, that Enterprise would agree to a car being supplied.

All this was over a period of nearly two hours, during which I was also annoyed to receive a call from “ambulance chasers” to tell me I could claim compensation! When I told them it was a scam and I was hanging up, the caller shouted angrily at me!!

But thank goodness for the warmth and compassion of this lovely group. I’ve survived and I realise there are people facing far worse situations than this. Have the best day you can, everyone!

Good morning Mick.
Up before the lark this morning as I have an early appointment at the hospital.

Not much else after that.

Have a good day everyone.
