Good Morning Saturday

Good morning to all you lovely people on this thread. Dry and grey out there this morning in north Surrey
Yesterday had a very busy and difficult shift, perfect welcome home was Freddie dog who lay beside me for a very long cuddle.
This morning we are supporting DGS1 who will be running 4K with his mum, only his 2nd run. They are doing a virtual Santa Fun 5k run next week so this is preparation. This race like so many other events is not as normal. It would have been round the local town finishing in the pedestrianised high street followed by a Christmas parade and FC arriving on his “sleigh”
Will come home for a hearty brunch and then back off to work
Cherish those you love

Good Morning all, it’s very chilly out there ! Just broken the thin layer of ice on my wee raised pond
The sky is clear with light coming from the East through pink and dark blue streaks , looks like another bright cold day in prospect

Good morning everyone from a dark and cold east coast of Fife. Himself stayed put yesterday to keep nice and warm moving into different temperatures starts his coughing off I’m pleased he contacted his asthma nurse to get a review she’s prescribed him a different type of inhaler which he’ll get today. And she’s going to,speak to him in 2 weeks time again. Thankfully I noticed an improvement in his breathing last night I think by staying put it reduced his coughing. My dh needs a nagging wife or a kick up the a........ to get him to speak to his gp practice - nothing new there. have a good day everyone be kind to yourself keep warm.

Good morning all from a damp and misty Essex by the sea. It doesn't feel quite as cold as yesterday.
We have ordered some rock salt to go in the bin in the car park, together with a small bucket and spade. We need to go and pick them up this morning.
I've sent some flowers to both my girls, they should arrive this morning, just to say I miss them.
DH will be watching rugby this afternoon and GP qualifying and I will carry on with my latest cross stitch.
Have the best Saturday you can and stay safe everyone xx

Morning everyone. Dark and been raining in Oxfordshire
Beauregard so sorry to hear your sad news
Urmstongran hope you had a good journey
Nothing exciting except using new shark hoover for the first time!
I should do some baking (DH will be happy) as I have a lot of eggs for some reason but I don't need the calories!
Hope everyone has a good day

Good morning Mick and All

Cold and still quite dark in South Bucks.

With December on our doorstep I realised we have 12 weeks to get through and then have the prospect of Spring arriving. I wonder if we will have a repeat of last year’s lovely weather.

DH is away helping with our DGSs whilst our DS works. We decided it is safer for me to stay at home. We are all in a bubble. It makes me realise the reality of living alone.

GrandMattie what a wonderful Gran you are to your DGD. She will love the Body Shop goodies. I sent my 2 DGSs a comic each, a single KitKat (the thick choc variety) and bag of Percy Pig sweets, I know a sugar rush is inevitable but they are not allowed them all at once. I am counting the days till I can see them at Christmas.

Have a peaceful weekend folks.

Good morning everyone from a dark, dry Torbay.

grandMattie: your granddaughter will be looking forward to surgery in order to glam up in the imaginative clothes you’ve made and to use the Body Shop products! Well done!

Mick: Perhaps the football grounds will have the QR code for spectators to sign in using the NHS App on phones, if they have it. They were becoming widely used around here, prior to the recent lockdown.

Welcome back, Urm!

Yesterday, was a day of mixed fortunes. The good news is that I should be able to go to France, to spend Christmas with DH. The bad news? My car still isn’t ready, nearly three weeks since the accident! I dare not book the hotel or ferry until I’m sure of the car.

I went to my local P.O. to buy an International Driving Permit which could be issued immediately and will be required after Brexit from 1/01/21. Only when I arrived home did I notice that the clerk had written a start date of 1/10/21! Sigh!

There are more serious worries in many lives so I must get it in perspective. One friend told me that when her car was in for repair after an accident, it was parked outside the garage where a van ran into it and wrote it off!

There are worse problems, I know, for many people. I hope everyone has as good a weekend as possible.

Morning Mick and GrandMattie- I’ve just tried typing fracyptured three times and autobluddywrongagain amended it to fractured......I prefer your spelling actually ?

Another dry day promised here in north Wales (unless LauraNorder sends me her rain ?) so will get some washing done and that’s my excitement for the day! I could clean, I suppose.......?but there again perhaps not ?

Welcome back Urmstongran to whatever tier you’re in and stay safe and well everyone x

Good Morning everyone from Severnside. It’s pouring with rain.
Let’s hope your sewing is just the ticket for your granddaughters needs Mattie.

I’ve finished y practice piece of sewing with the old sheet for my new dress. I’ll do the soft pleats but leave out the pockets this time.
Today I’ll do some cleaning and put away my autumn decorations then I’ll get my Christmas cards and list out.

I hope you had an uneventful trip to uk home Urm. Rotten weather for you to come back to but at least you’ll be able to see your C Warrior (in a while).

Stay safe all and have the best day you can ?

Mornin Mick, morning All. Can’t see a lot out there, a murky damp start to our corner of Somerset. Don’t think there will be a repeat of yesterday’s sunshine. Raiding the loft today for the Christmas decorations, will have a sort through then can install ‘one day when I feel like it’. I love that phrase, it was my ma-in-laws favourite. Your granddaughter will be delighted grandMattie, you’re very creative. Be gentle with yourselves everyone, take care.

Fracyptured? Nice word! ?

Good morning from E Kent. We are promised sunshine today. We haven’t had rain but what I call “grumpy “ weather, neither one thing or another...
Yes, Mick, things are interesting and many seem illogical.
The Knicker Queen found some jersey tpyesterday and rushed to try to make a little pair of very wide legged trousers, about 24” with a draw strin waist. For two reasons- firstly, I don’t have waist measurements, secondly, I thought it might be easier to put on, disturbing the cage and fracyptured leg less. Bone pain is hideously painful. DH was so excited about them that he made me finish them befor 5 so he could post them.
DGD will be very spoiled today - her knickers, her trousers, and I have arranged for a fancy little box of toiletries to be made up for her at the Body Shop.
Hope you find today acceptable.*Marydoll*, you are in our sights, watch it! Everyone else stay safe. ❤️
