Good Morning Wednesday

Good morning from a calm start to the day with the promise of 13deg and sunny spells to come here in Glasgow. Thankfully my knee is on the mend and I am looking forward to gently pottering in the garden.

Enjoying my kick start espresso as I mull over some plans for the day.
Good news from GD1 yesterday when her teacher told her she did very well in the Spanish exam she had just sat! I do feel for children, missing so much education and now under pressure, taking important important exams. Thé relief yesterday gave her such a boost.

Have a pleasant day all and to those of you now released, enjoy your sense of freedom. We are still cautiously waiting at the starting gate. Garden visits to enjoy soon. ?

Good morning all from a brightening North Leicestershire.

Our cleaner is coming today and I intend to make a cake as 2 neighbours are coming for in the garden.

Our new neighbour is having lots of work done to the house si there are lots of comings and goings.

I hope everyone has the best day possible.

Morning all from a clear sky and promised sunshine here on the south coast.

I was not surprised to hear that yesterday was the warmest March day since 1968. It was glorious and just perfect for the long awaited visit of my DS. I made his favourite pasta dish and we ate in the garden for the first time this year. His visit and the weather really bucked up DH in his recuperation and we all enjoyed a catch up on news. A joy filled day.

Hoping DGD might turn up today once she has caught up with some sleep on her return from University on Monday. That will be another cheering visit to which we are both looking forward.

Nothing else much on the agenda. Pottering and faffing will be the order of the day I expect.

Hope everyone enjoys another lovely day.

Put that cake away Mattie it looks so tempting I want to eat it ?

Good Morning all from a dry Severnside where it promises to be another nice day. So warm yesterday that the heating stayed off.
Good that your trip out was ok Mick, it’s nice to do something different.

I woke to a email scam about car tax not being paid. Funny not.

I have DH cousin coming to visit this morning so I’m looking forward to seeing him. We often chat about family history stuff.

Let’s hope everyone has a better day today and take care ?

Noisy rooks in the tree ?

Yes, please, to the delicious looking cake, grandMattie and the freesias are the finishing touch!

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire where it feels cool.
Had yesterday off work and also have today off. DD and DGS have been staying for a few days, but they are off home today as Daddy is coming hone later❤️
I have the dentist this morning and then I will pop to DD to help her clean up in readiness for her DH coming home later.
I am excited to be planning having friends over for lunch on Good Friday and on Saturday I am meeting DS and DDiL with DGS for a walk at the Attenborough nature reserve near their house. Then on Monday meeting other friends for a walk in the countryside.
I never did that much before lockdown so maybe it has made me into a social butterfly like my DD and DH ?
I do hope everyone is feeling well and this sunshine has really put a smile on your faces. Take care ❤️?

Good morning from West Berkshire. Looks to be a fine day again.

Food bank volunteering this morning thank goodness as I’m going stir crazy . I need to get something to do every day of the week , I miss paid working so much .

Mick Waitrose have had Jersey Royals in bags for several weeks now , but not loose ones .

Have a good day one and all , but be careful whilst out and about.

Good morning from a cloudless E Kent. We are promised lots of sunshine ☀️ today before the cold returns.
Glad you enjoyed your day out yesterday, Mick.
I made a Simnel cake yesterday and need to make some hot + buns for Friday.
The tai chi outside went well, all the ladies attended. It was a bit damp underfoot but lovely to be out. Lots of rocks in the plane tree and very noisy church bells in the clock ringing out the 1/4s. I’d forgotten how much one of the ladies irritates me, so didn’t stay on for a drink on the green.
The quilt is coming on well, should be finished soon, but had a lot of hand sewing ?.
Got the chiropodist today. Probably going to the garden centre and Lidl in Dover, dropping off my friend’s Easter egg and birthday presents.
sheep, I hope you are feeling a bi happier today, that the bull is in the mend and not missing Pinchy’s pretty splints too much.
Have a good day, find a few ???and smile today.

Good morning, one and all from a dark but fine Torbay, from where I was delighted to make my escape yesterday, even though it was just for the day and not without a few problems!

First there were road works (replacement of crash barriers) creating tailbacks on the A380, the main road out of here. On arrival at Dartmoor View, I turned on the water, only to discover that there was a leak in the boiler cupboard! Luckily, the site manager was quickly round to fix it temporarily, pending a plumber attending. I also discovered the power had tripped out, creating some “interesting” items in the freezer, which I’d inadvertently forgotten to empty in October! ?

Overall, I completed the tasks I’d set out to do and set off for home, only to be caught in queues at the same road works, with the added annoyance of rush hour drivers seemingly oblivious to the 800 yards, 600 yards, etc signs warning of lane closures, preferring to speed along then cut in at the last minute on the diligent drivers. Nevertheless, it didn’t detract from the joy of a long drive on a beautiful day!

I really appreciated the kind wishes for my day out from you folk yesterday morning and I hope you were able to make the most of the welcome sunshine. ☀️ Thank you and I hope you enjoy whatever today brings. ?
