Good morning from Mick

Good morning from a sunny NE.
Yesterday was a day of pootling and faffing around the house but went into the garden in the evening to water the new plants. It was a beautiful balmy evening and for once very quiet.
Must update the Sainsbury's order today and rearrange the freezer so that I can get bread in.
Enjoy your lunch out Ashcombe, how lovely to socialise again.

Thanks Maw. Good morning Mick, morning all from South Lanarkshire. It looks bright outside from what I can see through the edge of the blinds.

You’re bound to be tired after your trip Mattie, enjoyable though it was. Take it easy today.

Yesterday’s usual kitchen cleaning led me to enlisting DH’s help to take the interior glass off the oven doors so I could clean them properly. What an improvement, I really ought to do it more often but I can usually find better things to do with my time.

I’m going to go to an actual supermarket today rather than my usual delivery, it’s been over a year since I’ve done more than pop in for a couple of things but I feel I’ve got into a rut so I’ll be looking for inspiration in the aisles.

Wishing everyone a peaceful day.

Good morning all from sunshiney S Hants, thanks for opening Maw, hope you get sorted Mick.Yesterday I sorted our mobile upgrades, they should be delivered today, did the tedious housework and in the afternoon/evening my voluntary work. Today is my friends 70th birthday, I’m collecting a cake for her and there’ll be a few of us in the local tonight to celebrate with her.
Ashcombe will you be heading to France soon? Believe you’re allowed back from the 9th, or do I have that wrong?
Hope you’ve recovered some energy today gM.
Wishing you all the best day you can have, plenty of ??around.

My youngest grandchild is 13 today, so my nine grandchildren are all teenagers!
Best thing was having them all in my garden on Saturday, in this glorious weather.

Thanks, Maw. Hope Mick manages to do his own posting soon.
In E Kent, it is bright but surprisingly chilly. Plenty of sun later.
I was wiped out yesterday for some reason and spent most of it just sitting.
I hope everyone with health problems/operations, anxieties and sadness manage contentment and lack of pain. ?☀️?

Good morning, everyone, from a bright Torbay. I hope your technical issues are soon resolved, Mick.

I’m glad grandMattie arrived safely home eventually and that Iris did so well with the cake sale. Such a thoughtful idea!
How lovely to have had a visit from Dollie and her family, Marydoll! She sounds like such a character! I wonder where she gets that from?!

Amongst the dozen shops near my home are three charity shops so yesterday, I bit the bullet and took two large bags of clothes to donate. The closest one had displayed a temporary sign saying that no donations were being accepted. Luckily, at the next one, a vintage hospice shop, the manageress was happy to receive clothing. They have a network of shops across South Devon and sell some items on eBay. Not that I expect anything of mine to find its way there!

Today I"m meeting a few theatre company friends for lunch as a few of us have had birthdays recently. Luckily, the organiser has chosen a restaurant on Babbacombe Downs, within walking distance of my flat so I can easily roll home afterwards!

Wishing everyone some rays of sunshine in their day, literally and metaphorically. ☀️??
