Hello, hello!

Good morning from a sunny NE.
Happy Birthday Dragonfly flowers
DH's blood test was okay yesterday which means he is set for his next chemo session tomorrow.
Had a quiet day yesterday so must get on with sorting out the toys GC no longer want or play with, that will be everything that doesn't have an internet connection then.
Have a good day.

Good Morning everyone from sunny Severnside.
Wishing you a Happy Birthday dragonfly ???.
Welcome back Mick. grandMattie ??

Swimming this morning and another trip to the pharmacy for my prescription. Yesterday they weren’t open and it was gone 9am.
I had a nice time shopping yesterday. I went to a Morrison’s, haven’t been in one in years. I bought a top. The road was very busy with lots of lorries. All on the way to Avonmouth no doubt.
I didn’t do much on my return in fact I watched one of those US afternoon films, in front of the fan. Cool me down!

Have a lovely day all hopefully without too many worries ?
I just want to add to those of you seeking help that when we had FiL, talking to the Health Visitor was suggested by someone. I’d always though they were for baby times.

Good morning all from an overcast Suffolk coast. Still warm but no sun at the moment.

I went to see The Father yesterday. A brilliant film with great actors but quite distressing . Have been ruminating about it ever since ?.

Up early as I couldn’t sleep and there were , already , dog walkers along the beach.

Happy birthday Dragonfly
We’ll miss you Urms
Hope the day brightens for you Marydoll
Fingers crossed the A127 is better for your return trip Sar. Glad you had a lovely time with your girls.
Welcome back Mick.

Wishing you all a gentle day.????

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire. A little cooler today I think.
We cancelled our holiday in September to France yesterday, we can only envisaged that the Delta variant will make its way over to mainland Europe by the middle of the summer and we won’t be allowed in anyway, better to cancel now than end up with another holiday voucher on my phone whilst sat in my garden!!! We are off to Wales instead.
Take care my friends and remember your sunscreen and your smile when you venture out??

Welcome back Mick and good morning all from the Black country. Sunny once again so washing on.
Sad to hear so many feeling down and taking a break but you must do what's right for yourself.
Happy birthday Dragonfly?.
Safe trip home Sar
Enjoy your day everyone and may you all find some ?.

Meant to say thank you for the update on Ashcombe olddudders, good to know all is well ?

Gwenisgreat1 Tue 15-Jun-21 07:29:52

Good morning all from bright Harrogate
Thanks for opening GM good to see you back Mick
Don’t leave us Marydoll. Take a wee break if you must. Then you can entertain us with your novellas?
Yesterday picked DGD up from school, in Knaresborough, what a chatterbox she is. She hasn’t been here for quite a while, so when DD arrived for her she was too busy to go home

Eventually peace reigned again and the house nearly tidy again
This pm I have a pedicure booked, a birthday present from DD2

Happy Birthday ? Dragonfly have a lovely day!

Have the best day possible folks.

Happy Birthday Dragonfly!

Gelisajams Tue 15-Jun-21 07:28:08

ill health, and a few commas missing. I pressed post instead of preview!

Nannytopsy Tue 15-Jun-21 07:28:07

Good morning gM and thanks for opening up. Welcome back Mick - it took an age to get you sorted out. I hope have a good trip today.
Marydoll & Urmstongran you both will be missed. I know how much time I waste on GN and I too have read virtually nothing this year.
We had a very few spots of rain last night - it was very grey all evening but it’s sunny again now. I am looking forward to the thunderstorms on Thursday and the rain on Friday will be welcome, if it arrives.
We are off to visit Ely tomorrow so I probably won’t make it here.
I hope today and tomorrow are kind to everyone.

Happy birthday Dragonfly

Good morning from Burnham in Norfolk where it’s warm again but hopefully not as warm as yesterday! Tomorrow’s forecast doesn’t bear thinking about then it’s torrential rain for Thursday! I think I shall book myself on a craft course for the day.
This is a fantastic camp site, it only takes little camper vans like ours unlike the big motor homes on the sites we usually go on so we blend in well here. The toilet hygiene organisation is top notch too! We will wander off later somewhere, on a bus. DH has it planned. I just sit back and enjoy!
I don’t like it when our regulars take a break but I do understand why. GN does get a bit addictive although I rarely post on other threads. Come back soon Urmston and don’t leave Marydoll
Glad you are sorted Mick end of frustration for you.
Wishing all with problems worries and I’ll health the best day possible.
Take care everyone stay safe ?

Grandmabatty Tue 15-Jun-21 07:25:12

Good morning all from a sunny Polmont. It's a bit cooler so I hope it doesn't get too hot. The wind had subsided too. Mick it's good to see you back. Marydoll and Urmstongran I'll be sorry if you leave albeit temporarily. I enjoy hearing about both of your lives. Marydoll I'm also sorry that you feel down. You have to do what helps you. ??
Today is a babysitting one. So fish man then the park then the garden in the afternoon. Whatever you do, I hope it's good.

brook2704 Tue 15-Jun-21 07:25:02

Good morning everyone from Inverness where it’s a dry bright start to the day but quite a bit cooler than the last few days
Thanks for opening up GM and really good to see you back mick
A very Happy Birthday dragonfly enjoy your special day! ????
Sorry to hear of some lovely regular posters taking a break on GN but fully understand and hope they’ll be back soon
Today I’m going to my Fitsteps dance class, the first time I’ll be there since last year so I’ll see how it goes. I’ve probably forgotten everything so I’ll be starting again trying to learn all the steps!
I’m also really looking forward to Friday as I’m going down to Cambridge again to visit DD1. This time taking the Inverness to Luton flight rather than the long train journey. I’m really looking forward to seeing her, SiL and my two gorgeous DGS. They grow up so quickly that I really like to see them as often as I can
Thinking of everyone with worries and struggles, hope today is gentle and take care all whatever the day brings ?

Good morning from sunny Shropshire.

Thank you for opening and welcome back Mick?

Happy birthday dragonfly, hope you have a lovely day?????

We are going into town this morning.We will either go early and have breakfast out or a bit later and have lunch out then back home for an afternoon of gardening for DH and reading for me.

Enjoy your break Urms and Mary I am sorry you are feeling down.Maybe stick to the good morning thread for a while of which you are an integral part?

Sending love to Cherry?

Thinking of EV and all our missing friends, all unwell and with worries?

Have the best day you can everyone??

MawBe Tue 15-Jun-21 07:21:43

Good morning all - another hot and sunny one.
Happy Birthday Dragonfly -I hope you have a lovely day and will be thinking of you when you go to Stamford- you’re not going to the William Cecil are you? <sigh>
I would like to say I have plans for today - but I would be lying. However a book and cold drinks may feature somewhere
Wishing you all a pleasant day!

NanKate Tue 15-Jun-21 07:19:33

So pleased you are making progress Alizarin. ?

You have a sabbatical for about a month Urm. Get reading and then we will be expecting to see you back on GN. You will be missed. ?

Jaxjacky Tue 15-Jun-21 07:18:29

Good morning all, thanks for opening gM and welcome back Mick, from a cloudy S Hants.
Happy Birthday dragonfly ??? enjoy your day. Thanks for the message oldudders, reassuring to know all is ok.
Disappointing for Scotland yesterday, Fridays game is a must watch!
Not a lot on today, GP appointment this afternoon and I need to order some meat from the local butcher for a family bbq on Saturday.
Sad to see some discontent amongst our morningers, it’s disconcerting. This thread and the kitchen are like comfort blankets.
Hoping for news from those missing still. Have a pleasant day all.

Good morning from a bright, cloudy Colchester. Welcome back Mick.
Not going too be as hot today. Nothing in the diary again. Walk to Aldi for bits and bobs and move stuff in the garden as we're expecting work to start out there tomorrow.
Love to all x

NanKate Tue 15-Jun-21 07:15:22

Good morning GrandMattie and welcome back Mick and All the GM Crew.

A very happy birthday dragonfly. Enjoy your day. ?

Your request dear Mary has been refused! What would we do without you? Come back Urm. Hello Kitty can you fit in 3 more shirts for ironing ? ?

Off for a strong coffee and croissant with DH and then to the bank to pay for my hearing aids, our holiday in the NF and birthday money for our DS to buy some running shoes which cost an arm and a leg ?

Alizarin Tue 15-Jun-21 07:13:58

Good morning from a very sunny south Cornwall. Looks like a scorcher is promised. Welcome back Mick, so glad you sorted it. Sorry you're fed up Marydoll. Don't go - how will I know how your fruit trees get on? Today, another little cafe trip down the road to meet a friend, then lying in the shade with a book methinks. Thank you for those kind hip op comments which I haven't responded to individually. You are lovely people. Have the best day you can.

Urmstongran Tue 15-Jun-21 07:05:17

Thanks Marydoll. Yes, I decided last night to take a sabbatical for a while. That sounds intelligent put that way doesn’t it ha! Sorry to hear you’re feeling a bit down, just when your Pitlochry holiday seemed to have lifted your spirits too.

I am not leaving - just resetting my controls. I spend too long on here some days to the detriment of my other #lazygran habit of book reading. I cannot believe we are in June and this year so far I’ve only read five books! I could probably read a novel on our trip up to Plockton this Saturday but the scenery is so spectacular around Glencoe I know I’ll want to drink it all in as we travel northwards.

Anyway, best wishes to you all in the interim (another posh word from me ... ‘3 across’?) and as Arnie says “I’ll be back”. x

Sar53 Tue 15-Jun-21 07:03:33

Good morning from my last morning in Leamington. Leaving here about 9.30 to meet my DH at the Toddington services on the M1, then home to Essex by the sea. I have had a lovely time with my girls and will miss them loads.
Good to see Mick back, thanks for opening up GM, happy birthday to Dragonfly and I'm sorry that you are thinking of leaving Mary, please reconsider as I know that I look forward to hearing from you each day.
Life can be tough at the moment but hopefully it will improve, hang on in there. Love to all xx

Marydoll Tue 15-Jun-21 07:03:03

Dragonfly, have a lovely day! ?????

kittylester Tue 15-Jun-21 06:50:10

Good morning all from a warm and bright North Leicestershire.

Many happy returns, dragonfly. Have a lovely day and a great lunch out tomorrow.

Ironing for me today so I had better get going before it gets hotter. Zoom cafe this afternoon and then a barbecue at my brother's house.
