Morning Mick and All.

Beautiful blue and apricot sky in South Bucks.

Thank you Ashcombe I can’t wait to get sorted by the consultant, I haven’t been able to eat a proper meal in 3 weeks! The upside is that I have lost the weight I have put on in Lockdown.

Glad you are feeling better Mick.

Good morning from a dry Morecambe Bay. I am having an ‘empty’ this morning! DH is off along the canal and along the river for a long walk. I will pick him up about lunchtime from a pre arranged spot. He’s getting some miles in his legs before he hopefully attempts long sections of the SW Coastal path later this year.
In the meantime I’ll have a chat with my friend and get out in the garden.
Take care and stay safe everyone ?

Good morning from a cold and frosty north Surrey, but sunshine is promised.
Busy shift yesterday and will probably be the same today, but looking after some lovely patients and making a difference so makes me happy.
Mick I hope all goes well for your vaccination today.
Looking forward to hear news of Scentia’s new arrivals, and maybe a picture.
Thanks for the reminder of the rugby, DH will be watching, we usually have a bit of friendly rivalry between us when England and Wales play as I grew up with a family affiliation to the Welsh team and have fond memories of being at my paternal grandparents house cheering on Wales.
Wishing all a sunny Saturday

Morning all from a chilly south coast .-0.8 at 6am. We are promised another lovely, sunny day today so it will be as nice as yesterday, if so.

The letter and instructions came through from the hospital yesterday so we now need to plan the special medicated showers and pre-op drinks DH has to take on Thursday and Friday morning. He has to report at 7.30am and DSiL is taking him in as it is at the hospital where he is a consultant.

We did some more gardening yesterday and it was such a joy to have the warm sunshine smiling down on us. Felt like a blessing. Then the wonderful "snow moon" was magical as darkness fell. I really don't understand the complexities of space but we do get some wonderful things from it!

Glad you are getting jabbed Mick. They will warn you to still take great care afterwards. It's not a magic bullet.

Hope everyone can enjoy the day and the sunshine. I told you spring was on its way!sunshinesunshinesunshine

Good morning from Malta where it is another sunny day.
Couldn’t post yesterday as the internet packed up for some time.

Glad you are feeling so much better Mick and hope you get the jab without any problems.

Lovely photo Ashcombe. I can imagine you enjoyed your walk in the sun.

DD3 and I are going out for coffee this morning. It seems to have become our usual Saturday outing and I enjoy her company so much. She has such a busy life but still finds time for her mum.

Pleased to see EV is back with us. Hope everyone has a good day.☀️

Good morning from a dawning E Kent. With the sun rising in the east and, at the same time, the full mon is setting in the west, the sky is full of nacreous colour (pace Urms).
Glad to see happy people on already.
It felt like Saturday all day yesterday, so I have a bonus one today! ?
Yet another nothing day. Probs make a quiche for dinner tonight as rather England ??????? vs Wales ??????? rugby match finishes late and I don’t have a proper time for it to be on the table.
Keep safe and cheerful, May all your worries and pains drop off. ❤️????

Morning Mick from a dry n dark north Wales where I’m about to trot off for a newspaper having already made use of the chamberpot ☕️ Tee hee ?

We shall be joining you with the Full Monty this morning and there could be the first cut on the lawn this afternoon - discussion and debate on whether it’s ‘twirly’ beforehand!

Glad to see the crumpet Queen has returned- on my crumpet trails, I found some more sourdough ones in Asda Special range and they’re fivepence cheaper than Tesco Finest - how cheering EV!

Will pop in later to read your doings.....?

Good morning, everyone from another chilly morning but with sunshine expected in Torbay. Great news regarding your vaccination and it’s good you have a lift.

I hope your consultant will bring some relief for you NanKate and that Mr. Gagagran has his operation next week as planned. Marydoll your posts always raise a smile here - thank you for making an unpleasant experience for you into an entertaining read!

It seems like almost all of us enjoyed beautiful sunshine yesterday and I revelled in the chance to walk in the local park without a coat! (see photo) People had time to stop and talk, too and I’m never short of things to say! The exception regarding sun was dustyangel who was enquiring about how we dry washing. I have a large airier in my back bedroom where things dry within a day or less depending on the fabric.

Have a happy weekend, everyone and continue to enjoy the improving weather and signs of Spring! ?☀️?

Good Morning Everyone,
Its dark, but its gradually brightening up also dry and cold out there , I also look out of my window and see daffodils growing.
Today , a double dose of cycling on Eurosport plus for a change I have decided to have a fried breakfast for a change today, and tomorrow.
Hopefully my brother will pick me up so I can have my first jab today .
Compared to 3 weeks ago , I am beginning to feel more myself .
Take Care,
Mick
