Good Morning Saturday

Good morning from a bright E Kent.
I have finished Iris’s trousers and made a matching crop top from the fabric left over.
The Open plans are surging ahead, huge pantechnicons go past all the time, everything is nearly done. Yesterday, holders for flags were being put onto the telegraph poles!
Nothing much on again today; just hope it’s a little warmer.
Hope our GraMmingos have a stress/pain-free day. ???☀️???

Good morning from an overcast south Cornwall. Today I anticipate an unplanned visit from my 5-year-old granddaughter who has patiently taken a back seat during my two hip replacements. I suspect there will be a phone call asking if she can 'come and make something please Nana,' while her little brother goes rockpooling with daddy. (Their mum works on Saturdays.) If not I'll take a bus to the sea front to grab some fresh air.

Whatever Saturday holds for everyone I hope the day goes as well as possible.

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire where the sun has got his hat on.
We are off for a walk around Carsington Water and lunch at the pub in the village. We are meeting up with a few friends I haven’t seen since before the first lock down. (I am secretly hoping they have put on weight too so I don’t look like I have lost my ability to self care??)
So excited though as we have so much to talk about the men won’t be able to get a word in!!
DGS is coming for a sleepover tonight and DH and I are taking him to watch DH running in a race tomorrow. It will give DD a morning to just nap with DGD who is nearly 7 weeks old now which I can’t believe?

Good morning all from a very wet Ediburgh. I have no idea what the temp is, but I tell you I'm sitting in bed with my cashmere poncho on! Brrrrr!

I am having serious Wifi tribulations. Mr Mr MDoll has messed up the Hotel Wifi code, (are you surprised?) and I can't access it. I'm trying to do this on my phone,but I'm struggling.
I shall post a few phtos from yesterday and with my IT hat on, try to resolve it later.
All I'm going to say is that I have enough material for a new Inspecor Rebus novel: Wifi murder in a hotel in Rose Street.
Back later, I hope!

Good morning everyone from Inverness where it’s quite cool and wet. Yesterday was another cold rainy day but the forecast is looking good for next week
I hope you enjoy watching the cycling mick
The trousers and top look very cute GM I think Iris is lucky to have you making such pretty outfits for her and I hope she enjoys wearing them
Today DH and I are going out walking for the day, it’s a while since we’ve done a longish walk so I’m looking forward to a good stretch of the legs and to get my step count up on my Fitbit
Looking forward to hearing more about your trip away marydoll!
Hope everyone finds something to enjoy today and take care all whatever the day brings ?

Good morning, everyone from a dull Torbay, much like the start of the last couple of days although they did brighten mid morning.

What a super outfit, grandMattie! I love the colour and admire your talent. After years of wearing blue for school uniform and for Girl Guides, it has taken me a few decades to feel good in blue again.

A meal at my favourite local, The Buccaneer is planned today with my bubble mate. The food is always freshly cooked and the staff take good care of us. The photo is lifted from their Facebook page. I remember watching a TV programme called “The Buccaneers “ as a child! Does anyone else remember it?

Enjoy your social times this weekend, everyone. ??☀️

Good morning from a sunny north Surrey.
Yesterday afternoon had a lovely few hours with DGDs. The 3 year old loves playing in the garden and was having a wonderful time with water and dirt whilst I sat with the baby making sure she didn’t eat the grass. Stayed for their tea, bath and bedtime and came home to roast dinner cooked by DH.

This morning will water the garden and walk the dog. Our local walk takes in a small country park. The swans have 5 sygnets, the parents are very protective so we have to put Freddie on the lead near them. Will be interesting to see how the open air swimmers manage as Saturday is their day to swim there.

Today DH’s family are scattering the ashes of his sister who died at Christmas. There will be a picnic after and lots of reminiscing.

Wish all a good Saturday

Good Morning everyone from Severnside. It’s damp and cloudy.

A pretty outfit you’ve made for Iris Mattie.

After running errands yesterday I saw my sister in law and had a lovely catch up.

Not sure what to do today but I will stay around the house as my friends may call.

Thinking of all with worries and hope everyone has a good day ?

Good morning all from a very sunny North Leicestershire.

We are off shopping for a 40th birthday present for DD2. She is particularly difficult to buy for so wish us luck.

My brother is still very poorly - each day brings another problem. The doctors have, thankfully, clear the fluid from his lungs but can't identify the infection that keeps rearing it's head. He has been in hospital for 2 weeks now since his stroke and, because he is so ill, no rehab has started yet. He is 69 on Monday!

Good morning all from the Black country. Well its finally stopped raining the heating as been on for a short while.
grandMattie love that colour of Iris outfit.
Marydoll I enjoy a good Rebus novel I wait in anticipation ?
Meeting friends later meanwhile full English is calling Saturday treat.
Enjoy your day and may you all find some ?.

Good morning from a grey and damp NE.
Yesterday was a better day, DH managed to eat something at every meal which was a great relief to me.
DD and SIL brought some shopping from Aldi, they bring the heavy things like bottled water. Yesterday's treat was Eton mess tarts which we had with our coffee, delicious.
This afternoon my sister will visit, this week she is bringing quiche and a mince pie, her village butcher does wonderful baked produce.
Weather forecast is poor so no garden today and certainly no watering of pots.
Put me down for a copy of your book Marydoll I loved Rebus.
Enjoy your weekends.

Good morning from a cloudy Morecambe Bay. I’m off to a felt workshop today which I’ve been looking forward to for ages.
I catch up tonight and hopefully read about Marydoll’s exploits!
Stay safe everyone and take care ?

There is a Primark, directly opposite the hotel. It opens at 8am. Guess where I am going,,,,,,, shallow person that I am ? ?

Good morning everyone from a grey and overcast Northampton. A shower is forecast, so hope it clears up by lunchtime.

A lazy morning ahead, and then DD is picking me up after lunch so that I can go and watch her riding lesson at a local stables. Not sure whether she will be in the indoor or outdoor school, so I shall need to wrap up warm. They have a nice little cafe, so a coffee will keep me warm I hope. Then we are planning on calling in at the garden centre for more coffee and perhaps cake!

Shall be watching rugby later - England versus Japan, and then the final of the English premiership. Not sure which team to support in that one!

Hope we find a bit of sunshine ? today.

Good morning all.
Yesterday my friend who moved last year from Bucks to Fife posted a video clip of the Flying Scotsman chugging through Kinghorn where she lives.
I wondered if you were on it Marydoll ?

Good morning Mick and all his followers. Suffolk is cloudy so far and I think rain is forecast.
I have an early start to take the cat to the cattery before DS brings his huge dogs to stay. We only have them for 24 hours but the cattery is closed on Sunday and we were taking him there on Tuesday anyway, so he may as well stay. Poor lad! If there are dogs in the house, he just can’t leave them alone and doesn’t get the idea that dogs bred to hunt will go for a nice furry cat!
Then it’s housework and rugby. Beds to change, dust to move around.
I hope your TdF starts well Mick.
Love the outfit GM!
Kitty I am so sorry that your brother isn’t making better progress. I do hope they can find the seat of the infection soon.
Time to get moving! I hope the day is kind to everyone.

PS Enjoy your day Marydoll!

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. It’s dull and rather cool in South Yorkshire. A night of very muddled dreams involving two old ladies in a delicatessen! Nothing much on the agenda today, so I may do some baking later and try and get on with my knitting. DH is muttering about washing the car, but he may not get further than muttering about it! DS and DiL are coming down to stay next week so I have a room to get ready for them at some stage. Have the best day you can folks.

Good morning from the Sefton coast where it is overcast.
The gutter is now repaired, the flag has been reset so I’m awaiting the third matter. In the meantime I’ll deliver more baby clothes I’ve made for the SCBU and pick up a few items not available on our online order. My aim is to take out more than I bring in. ?
Your father was very gifted Alizarin; his painting captures everything I love about steam trains. Having to wait so long for an ambulance to go to hospital alone is a disgrace, Susan56. I hope your dear father receives good news today.
Thinking of several missing posters and those who would benefit from some TLC. Have a good day.
?????

Good morning, no sun here kitty ☹️.
So sorry to hear your brother is not improving.

Love the outfit Mattie.

Absolutely nothing planned today.
Cornish crab and orzo salad for dinner.

Wishing you all a good day.

Good morning everyone. Not looking too bright outside at the moment so hoping it improves . We are off to the park for a family picnic. DD2 can join us, her sold isolation finished at midnight and all her tests have been negative.
DGS1 (18) rang me yesterday to tell me that he had been to the walk in centre for his first jab. Hoping he has no side effects.
Better get going and pack up some food and must also quickly plant the gift our friends bought the other day.
Hope all find a smile today.

Good morning everyone from a dull and wet start to the day here on the east coast of Fife. Himself says it’s to brighten up today, the weather that is. Therefore we’re off again to our favourite haunt for mid morning coffee and cake. Or perhaps a sneaky early lunch I had a bit of an upset with my carer last night a very difference of opinion I thought I was going mad or perhaps confused listening to her view on things and I began to doubt myself

I’m so pleased the bin men came this morning seeing as they couldn’t come yesterday upsetting himself, they had good reason though as someone was off sick I suppose that could be the same across the whole of the workforce at the moment have a good day everyone hugs to you all

that’s a lovely wee blue outfit made in the previous photo posted I do like it you could enter the great British sewing bea with your skills sorry I’m unable to remember who posted the photo and I can’t scroll back without losing my post.

It was Grandmattie woohoo.
