Good Morning Saturday

Good morning from a windy grey Great Yarmouth. Today’s plan is to spend 4 hours on the Broads on a boat. Hopefully it will work out better than yesterday when our boat trip was cancelled at 8am. The weather was torrential rain all day. We wandered into the town when my weather app suggested a lull in the rain but it had that wrong! We couldn’t have been more soaked if a bucket of water had been poured over us. Drying our wet clothes in the little camper was challenging to say the least. Fan heater on but so it didn’t get too hot windows open!
To top the day off the crab sandwich I had bought for my tea had bits of broken shell so it wasn’t nice at all.
A better day is hopefully on the cards.
Thinking of all with far more serious problems.
Take care and stay safe everyone ?

Good morning from West Wales.

When we arrived yesterday we found out DD had booked us into a rather lovely hotel.We always pack an overnight bag just in case we can’t face the drive back on the same day.We are looking forward to our hotel breakfast and then a walk along the coastal path.

We will spend the afternoon with DH’s parents and drive home tonight.FIL is very weak but in good spirits although his voice is just a whisper.Very emotional especially for DH.

I will send Cherry and Lins another wave before we set off home??

Hope blossoming gets on ok today and that yesterday wasn’t too awful for her.

I hope things are sorted soon Ash so that you and olddudders can be reunited??

Thinking of EV and all our missingfriends,grandmajet,Auntieflo and all unwell and all who are worried.

Have the best day possible everyone??

Good morning all from the Black country, cloudy start but dry rained most of yesterday.
DS coming this morning bringing the boys, Dil is doing a triathlon. If it brightens up we will go to the park, if not Thomas train set will be all over the floor.
Urms if your reading have a safe journey and enjoy your break.
Thoughts with missing posters ? and may you all find some ?.

Old morning from a dull, still E Kent. I’ve become so used to the wind/breeze here that I feel slightly suffocated when there isn’t any.
I’m so sorry that you can’t make it to France or ice versa due to CV19, insurance and vaccinations, Ash, it must be so hard. Courage, mon brave!
Short but lovely visit from my (huge) “baby” yesterday. His son, to his great pride, is the tallest of the family. This makes me the shortest adult in the family. I’m 5’10” tall!
Doing nothing again today - might sew, might bake, might..
Have a good day, all you lovely GraMmingos. Catch a passing flamingo, a smile ?... ???☀️??

Morning Mick, morning All. Our corner of Somerset has cloud cover as it did all day yesterday.

Grocery shop and catch up accomplished yesterday if later than planned I’m not sure what today will bring. From choice we don’t venture far on summer weekends, traffic often at a standstill. May return a top to a local store, love the top, it just doesn’t love me .

Hope there is a smile for us all today.

Good morning all, no rain here this morning.
Just off out to work. Will visit the gym on my way home and look forward to reading all the posts this evening.
Hope everyone enjoys their Saturday

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

Such a difficult situation for you both Ashcombe.

A busy but enjoyable day in the shop yesterday. Several customers turned out to be visitors from all parts of the UK, mainly catching up with family and friends but two or three were on touring holidays. It’s good to see people enjoying life again.

The hearing aid seems to be working for DH, I don’t want to jinx it though so fingers crossed he doesn’t find it as annoying as the last ones.

I’m hoping for a delivery of yarn today to get on with my crochet but other than that I have no real plans.

Wishing everyone a peaceful day.

Good morning, Mick and all who follow on a bright morning in Torbay.

Like you, Beechnut, I’m enjoying Downton Abbey, an oasis of calm amidst the current football frenzy!

I do appreciate the many responses from folk here to my post yesterday. The pub where I lunched on Thursday, brook2704, is one which DH and I visit regularly when he’s in town so I feel at home there. On this occasion, the majority of the clientele were holidaymakers who were probably curious about this single lady, whose name was known to the staff. I did recommend the plaice that was on special to some sitting nearby so perhaps they thought I was on commission!

After much research and several phone calls, I’m no closer to booking a trip to see DH olddudders in France. Whilst it remains Amber rated by the UK government, my annual travel insurance won’t cover my trip and the difficulty of arranging (plus the cost of) the required testing is a deterrent, too. DH is equally disappointed but he is still awaiting his second vaccination so we shall be apart for a little longer. Thank you all for caring about us; it is heartwarming.

Enjoy whatever the weekend has in store for you! ?☀️?

Good Morning everyone from a dull Severnside.
I’ve just finished my second cuppa of the morning as I’ve been awake for ages. Unusual for me but I did feel tired yesterday and couldn’t even keep my eyes open to watch Downton Abbey.

I hope I’ll get on and do some shoe cobbling today. My sandals could do with another hole on the straps.

Have the best day you can all and hope there were no phone calls to divorce lawyers yesterday Marydoll ?
