Morning everyone from a grey but dry Somerset .rain forecast from lunchtime .
Got family over this afternoon for a couple of hours .as we have 2 birthdays to celebrate this week (they are in our bubble ) the children will keep us entertained with their chatter and antics .
Hope Dragonfly is feeling better today. Thinking of all other grans who are feeling low or unwell ?
Take care and have a good day

Good morning Mick, morning all from cool and cloudy South Lanarkshire.

Yesterday’s picnic in the park was a success, the rain stayed away and the children had a wonderful time running around playing with bubbles and climbing trees.

Today will be a quiet, not a lot happening so I’ll try to summon up the motivation to have a clear out in the craft/piano/book room where stuff is beginning to pile up and is getting out of control.

Wishing everyone a peaceful day.

Morning everyone and thank you for all the words of encouragement yesterday. Feeling brighter this morning after a good sleep. It's 3.5c outside and forecast is for heavy rain and gales later, so we are battening down the hatches in readiness.

DS rang last night, fizzing with excitement at starting his new job on Tuesday. It was so good to hear his enthusiasm. Just need good news for DD now from her interview last Thursday. She will find out this week one way or the other.

Nothing planned for today but no doubt something will turn up as Mr Wilkins Micawber said.

Hope the day is a good one for us all.

LoD, yes I did Mattie. Partly due to the fact that I nodded off then tried to watch on iPlayer but I was too tired to pay attention.

Good morning from a dry NE.
Yesterday I spent an hour or two sorting out wine and cutting up empty boxes, a job that DH usually sorted.
Watched LOD but wasn't really impressed with the ending.
BIL said he would cut DH's hair today, good because I was frightened of making a mess of it.
Thinking of Dragonfly flowers

Good Morning everyone from a damp Severnside.

I’m off to see BeechNutella today. We something planned to do together but it much depends on the weather.

I’ve got a few aches and pains and was reading some stuff which resonated with me from past years so I’m hoping to take
a step forward on that matter.

I hope you all have the best May Day, especially those of you not feeling the best. Hope you’re back home soon Dragonfly ?

Good morning from a bright E Kent. High cloud, promised a gale but absolutely no rain. How I wish we had some!
I hope you had a good day yesterday, Mick, and that dragon is safely home. Sorry not to mention the others,...
Nothing on today (but wearing clothes, pace Grandmafrench) ?
Found the ending of LoD rather flat yesterday. Did you?
Hope today brings sunshine ☀️ in your hearts and a random flamingo ? in your lives. ?

Hello Michael! Happy holiday to you too. Forecast is grim here up north but so far so good. I'm planning a quiet day with a little bit of essential paperwork to do. With luck some gentle gardening and then looking forward to snooker final tonight. Don't watch much of the running up but the final does it for me. I'm in awe of their precision. Have a good day yourself and all who follow on.

Good Morning Everyone,
This morning is looking dry at the moment but with grey skies here in brackley.
my day, some housework, and laundry plus a small shop, otherwise its stay in today, and my favourite sport is not on today, so will maybe have good nap in the afternoon.
Take Care,
Mick
