Good Morning Everyone,
Its light and another dry and bright start to the day here in Brackley .
Looking outside its full of the signs of spring , even the trees are showing budding.
Today , my penultimate day of wearing my ECG mentor.
A little bit of exercise with it on such as housework and do a small shop , before settling down and watching cycling on TV .
Take Care,
Mick

Grandmattie, when you're cutting it up, I'm also in the queue (I love that word!!) for a slice of that scrumplicious-looking cake! ?️

Good morning/afternoon from West Sussex. Gentle breeze and sunny though quite a bit of cloud but definitely better than last week.

Lovely to hear of all the Mother’s Day delights yesterday. I tell my DDs not to send me anything but I did get a lovely Jacquie Lawson e-card from DD2 - butterflies (no flamingos). I love your “flypast” Grandmafrench.

Too many cakes on here this morning Grandmattie and Hiraeth - I have got to lose a few lockdown pounds ?. Still these home-made ones are healthy, right?

Hope all goes well for you Bellasnana. I was due to have a colonoscopy last summer - my third since having polyps removed a few years ago. I expect it will take them a long time to catch up and there are so many people in much greater need waiting for tests and treatment.

I have put off finishing the degreasing of my cooker hood all morning and now the new filter has arrived in the post so no more excuses!

Late again to the party! Good morning Mick, Annie and all.
Thinking of Bellasnana, Marydoll, Corner, Gagagran and others undergoing procedures or difficulties today.

I had to pop out to collect my prescriptions, and am now seriously considering having them delivered.

The weather is fine at the moment, but I am not sure whether to chance the washing out on the line.
Grandmattie, your cake looks so nice and moreish.
Hoping all is well with the lambs and their mums Sheepandcattle.
I will have a coffee and go back and peruse properly now.
Have a good day one and all.

Back again, having survived my hour long plus appointment. It wasn't the most pleasant of experiences and I'm pretty shattered, but the dentist managed to finish all the work. The worst part was the water running down my cleavage and the itchy nose!!! No further appointment required.
The bad news, the dentist isn't sure it will last, I shall have to be very careful, my mouth is not in good shape.

Happy birthday, Stilllearning, I hope you have the best day possible in the circumstances. ???

I meant to say Happy Birthday to stillearning? your birthday is a day before DH’s! I wonder if I can remember next year. Let’s hope it’s a better year for us all.

That cake looks delicious grandMattie! I love raspberries.
Many happy returns of the day to you Stilllearning. ??

Glad your ordeal at the dentist is behind you Marydoll I hope he gave you a sticker badge for being brave.

^ Good times for me today?, I'm amending my will ?. I'm not cutting someone out, I'm adding someone in ?^ oh Cherry I thought we’d agreed to keep this just between ourselves?

LauraNorder Mon 15-Mar-21 13:50:06

Happy birthday Stillearning ?, hope it’s a good’un.
Well done Marydoll, you got through it and with sense of humour intact.

Sorry forgot to say happy birthday to stillearning .?.

Wow.....definitely too many cakes and talk of fun and games today. Ladies - hope you've got on with all things domestic!!

You brought a tear to my eye, Ellan. What a lovely thing for your StepD to say to you. Worth everything.

Taichinan I feel like saying "Oh, aren't you lovely! And there's me imagining that you were a tall, dark haired lady".....but I won't, of course, because that's a bit rude!
Meals on Wheels could definitely use you.

With that, I'm about to have a piece of cake with my tea!
Santé, dear people! ☕️

If there's any of your cake left, GrandMattie, I'll have some, please.
So glad your Dental is over (for the time being Marydoll)
with a bit of luck you'll have finished with your procedures Bella, hopefully nothing taxing found.
Pittcity we moved 5 years ago and I would love to move my bedroom round for the 5th time, but haven't the energy.
That's dreadful having to login to 2 funerals, Baubles
Catch up tomorrow!!
