Good morning all from a very dull North Leicestershire.

I'm sorry to hear that you had aches and pains harri and about your worrying day Ashcombe.

Today I am having more highlights done as I feel drab and dreary! Then a few of us are meeting in a friends garden to try to work out how we can start a dementia cafe in the village.

I spoke to my brother yesterday. He was breathless and his speech was quite indistinct. I did gather that he finds it distressing having a catheter and having to be taken to the loo. He is my younger brother who used to kick my shins if he didn't get his own way. It's very sad.

Good morning all from a cloudy and very muggy Glasgow.
I’m quite excited today because five of us are having afternoon tea in the Ebay Queen’s garden. We haven’t been together as a group of friends since before Lockdown. The best part is no travelling is involved, I just have to cross the road! It’s over thirty five years since we first met through the toddler group and have continued and strengthened our friendship through the years.

My plan was to get up early and make tablet for all of them, as they always appreciate it, but I’m so slow this morning. Reading GN hasn’t helped!!! However, I’m unsure if the tablet will behave in this heat! I have also promised to make strawberry tarts, just like the ones from the local baker’s. Unfortunately, although Prosecco is on the drinks menu, much to my disappointment, I can’t partake. sad

Panache and the loss of her beloved John and Jet’s family were in my thoughts all day yesterday. A sad time for the GN community. It is definitely a wise move to give someone you feel you can trust, your email address, just in case. I fear we will never know EV's fate, but I can hazard a guess.

For all those with plans, enjoy your day and special thoughts are with those who are struggling. Harri., I hope your DH’s dentist visit goes well. Great idea about the concert!

Good morning from a bright and sunny Torbay.

Wish I felt the same! My surgery has asked me to record my BP for a week as I can’t be seen in person. It hasn’t settled since January, 2020 when I was admitted to hospital due to heart issues, diagnosed as stable angina and atrial fibrillation.

Last night, my BP wouldn’t come down from 185/80 plus I had a rapid pulse rate. Paramedics were summoned but results were inconclusive although I’ve been advised to drink more water and ring my GP today for another ECG.

Look forward to reading happier news from you good people. ?

Good morning from a grey and wet NE.
Yesterday was a poor day for me, lots of aches and pains.
DH watched the football match at teatime which surprised me as he hasn't been watching TV, I left him to it and went to the study.
DH has a dental appointment this morning to check the site of the abscess and review a loose front tooth.
Live streaming of GD's school concert this evening, brilliant that we can watch online.
Have a good day.

Good Morning all from Severnside. I saw some brightness ten minutes ago so I’m hoping it comes back and we have a nice day.

I’ll make sure I’ve got my green waste bin filled and potter outside.

I’ve received a letter from my cousin (she likes paper and an ink pen and doesn’t have a computer or anything). She is now in and out of hospital and has carers coming in to help. She says their bed making skills leave a lot to be desired.

Have a good day everyone ?

Good morning from north Surrey. Dry and overcast here.

I have PT and gym this morning. Boys are here so will need to get them up and ready for school.

Wednesday is my day for bedding change and cleaning our bedroom. Trying to be up to date and ahead of the game as we are off on holiday on Friday.

School run and entertain the boys this afternoon/evening.

Wishing all a good day
