Good Morning Everyone,
Its looking cloudy outside here but its dry at the moment here in Brackley .
Yesterdays trip out went OK , with usual routine , but returning to no cycling on TV.
Today ,a small shop , followed my cycling on Eurosport.
Hoping that its a trouble free race stage.
Take Care,
Mick

Good morning Michael and all GNs. It’s grey and cool in South Yorkshire and DH tells me it has just started to rain! What???‍♀️ We were supposed to be going out for a drive today to scope out the venue for a wedding we are going to soon, and see how long the journey takes us as it’s out in the sticks, and then have a walk! C’mon weather! Get your act together.
Happy birthday Grandmajean??. Have a good day folks.

Happy Birthday, grandmajean
Hope your day makes you feel keen
On being out in pastures green
Smiling, feeling more serene
About a year that's truly been
One we wish we'd never seen
We'll raise a glass - today you're Queen
So, Best of Birthdays, grandmajean
?

Cornergran can you not find an alternative engineer to mend your washing machine?The answer to your nepher and his wife wanting your holiday cottage is simple Gingster - say yes, but you will need a car and give them the details of a local car hire company?
Another attempt at putting a photo of DGD in the dress I bought from the charity shop - she was thrilled with it!
Thanks for putting in a "Hello" Marydoll hope you feel better soon.

Old friend has cancelled as it is her bath day!
DS1 is here I think as he tells me has had been queuing for over 3 hours!!!

Nannagarra Wed 26-May-21 10:54:24

Hoping Marydoll and Auntieflo feel better soon and that Cherry is having a good day.

Good Morning All x. Happy Birthday Grandmajean x

Not a cloud in the sky at 06.30 this morning----so what did I start doing ? Cleaned the windows grin
Needless to say an hour later it clouded over and has been like it ever since.

It's not often I dream---or if I do, then can't remember but last night's was vivid. I met a chap ( didn't know him ) but remember him in a dream a long time ago. He even told me it must be 20 years since he last saw me. ?! A nice chap whoever it is grin How peculiar.

Breakfasted and now waiting for 11's's, coffee and biscs.
Found a box of fish fingers in the freezer---didn't know I had them so " butties" later.

Sorry to hear Marydoll isn't too grand and not up to posting. Only rest is the cure.
Glad that Ashcombe arrived home safely too. That's some journey !

My face looks like a well smacked behind with sitting out in the sun yesterday. It was 6pm again before us neighbours retreated indoors. Lovely being outside though.

Had another harassing phone-call earlier but didn't answer it. Hundreds have had the same call re. "Scottish Power" and other areas of the scam, absolute pests.

I must crack on and get my coffee then whip around the bathroom and kitchen with the Zoflora.

Have a good day all and stay safe. xx

Good morning Mick and all

I was up fairly early but had a few calls to make. I spent much of yesterday finding contacts for the help we need with the house build. I have 3 people interested so wanted to have a quick chat on the phone this morning before they came to see the work. One sounds perfect. He comes tomorrow.

Also got into reading a couple of other threads before this one. So I'll be back to catch up on your news soon.

It's dry today in Cornwall. - well - so far. So much rain yesterday!

Hi there! It’s an overcast day here in Kent. When will summer ever start? Marydoll all the very best to you. Hope you feel better soon. Looking forward to next Novella!
DH is improving slowly after his op. One down side of his recovery - the amount of tv he’s watching. Opal hunters, gold miners, SWAT teams, Chinese movies, Chateau DIY, Storage wars, salvage hunters, Good Morning , Jackie Chan. When he is at work (night shift) , the tv isn’t on! On the plus side, I get to cook more. Even made banana bread the other day as a special request! Having survived spending lockdowns 24/7 and post-op recovery, retirement together will be a breeze! At least we should be able to go out for some lunch, days out etc.
Best wishes to all feeling under the weather.

Gingster Wed 26-May-21 15:12:20

Thanks for your thoughts gwenisgreat, Urms and grandmafrench re our holiday cottage.

I will phone them tonight and say they are welcome to go there but we will let them have a week on their own. It’s then up to them to sort out travel etc.

I feel better now ? as I didn’t want to refuse them.
