Morning all from lovely north Wales where I’m not sure wot LauraNorder has sent me weatherwise.....but I’ve stopped Ark building as instructed!

I’ve got one like you GrandMattie! But mine is regimented regarding mealtimes, announcing his hunger after looking at his watch! Woe betide me if I’m at all vague about the day’s nourishments?‍♀️ but as you say, too late for swapping now!

Nothing planned for today other than snagging my updated kitchen - I’m sure he thought by doing all that tiling there’d be more food forthcoming......?

Morning Mick, Bellasnana and all who follow. It's 7.5c here on the south coast but dry and forecast to be dull today.

Managed to get a bit of garden tidying done yesterday though there is still more to do. It felt nice to be motivated to do something after a few days of missing mojo syndrome. The tete a tete daffodils are out and look lovely. Really lifts the spirits to know that there is lots going on in the garden that we can't even see yet. Bit like life I suppose.

We have had a call from the hospital colo-rectal nurse to say he has not been forgotten for his next operation but because ICU still has a lot of covid patients, the surgeons are having to prioritise the most urgent cancer patients for the short number of theatre slots they are allowed. She thinks it might be April if the good news on the reducing covid stats continues. DH is very stoic and just takes things day by day. I get more anxious than he does.

Let's hope we all have a good Captain Tom day today and that there is some better news later from Boris.

Look forward to news from down on the farm Cattle!

Keep safe everyone. sunshine

Good morning from a still grey E Kent. Mornings are definitely lighter.
I’ve been told that Iris is doing well and back to shuffling herself up and down stairs. They live in a Georgian terrace on three floors! So stairs play a big part. One loo is on first half landing and the other on the second floor...
Feeling much better myself. I think that tooth abscess must have been poisoning me. Funny I was totally unaware of it.
Cleaning today. I sometimes wish DH didn’t need such rigid routines to stay sane. It drives me mad when “we can’t go shopping, it’s not Tuesday” or whatever?. Poor old stick, he’s a good man. I’ll keep him.
I trust today won’t be too wet for those in the west, kind to those who are sad, unhappy or in pain. Stay safe. ❤️??☀️

Good morning from Malta where the weather looks good for now.

It is my only granddaughter’s birthday today. Hard to believe it’s ten years since I watched her enter the world. I would usually be in Florida celebrating with her so feel a little bit sad that travel is still nowhere near being a possibility. Thank goodness for FaceTime though.

Marydoll I hope you are feeling better today. Please don’t fall out with me. I promise not to post any more cake photos.?
Take care everyone and special thoughts to all who are struggling.☀️

Good Morning Everyone,
Its dark here in Brackley at the present moment but remains dry.
Today , as to watching sport such as cycling is live on Eurosport midmorning today ,and all the week so that will occupy my mind, to watch a real vent taking place although its from the UAE states .
Otherwise , I will have a quiet day , and hopefully see what is said later as to lockdown .
Take care,
Mick
