Good morning from a damp Essex by the sea, still no sign of summer.
We've had a busy weekend staying with DD2 and going to my middle brother's 60th. It was good to see him and his partner and also his daughter, my neice, who was 18 last week.
We came home early yesterday to miss the traffic.
DH will be working on his boat today and I have housework to catch up on.
I hope you all have a happy Monday xxx

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire where it looks a little grey out there.
All my flowers have been battered after torrential rain yesterday, being wild flowers they will soon pick up.
Back home, with no food in so I am having biscuits for breakfast!
Off to work shortly and we have NO jobs in the factory for the first time in 18 years so that is worrying, I am doing some sales work this morning to try and change that.
Don’t know about you lot, but I am not losing my mask and sanitizer any time soon, no mater what Boris says!
Have a good day my friends.❤️

Good morning all from a damp S Hants, I think we have heavy rain moving in tonight too. Thank you Mick for opening up.
That looks fun Ashcombe enjoy the train home. Imogen now has some pain from her burn and will be off school today, she’s concerned it might get bumped.
Off to the farm shop before 8, then washing, indoor drying and need to go and cover part of the allotment. We watched a film last night, Yesterday, it was brilliant, Danny Boyle at his best.
Have a pleasant day all, thoughts with those missing or in distress xx

Good morning from a bright and sunny Torbay, shopping for me today and cleaning, my I certainly know how to live it up?
The numbers are certainly concerning Marydoll, my Granddaughter phoned me yesterday to say she has to isolate as three children in her year have been diagnosed with Coronavirus it’s very worrying.
Have a good day all and take care.

Good Morning everyone from a brighter Severnside.

Thank you for concern about my knee yesterday. I gobbled a few painkillers and it was much better.

Despite it being Sunday and raining I felt I had quite a nice day yesterday.

I’ve a few errands to run and hopefully a parcel delivery. I say hopeful because I had an email to say delivery today and then I messed up looking at the tracking so it might come tomorrow.

I think I’ll potter today and maybe do a little sewing.

Take care all with worries and hope your day goes well ?

Good morning all from a wet Glasgow.
DH is golfing, but no empty for me today.
There will be some big, strapping (I hope) men, at last ripping out our rotten decking today. I should have baked goodies to keep them on side, but the cooker splashback fiasco put paid to that!

Mick, I have had that Win10 feature on all my devices for years, I seem to have become obsessed with what the weather and temperature are, no matter where I am in the world. ? You may want to know (or not) that today, it is 13C, which is 55.4 F here.

What concerns me (will probably affect you Mick) is, that apparently the new Windows 11 will not be compatible with many devices and has apparently not been well received in the IT community.

Wishing everyone the best of days and special thoughts and prayers to all who are struggling. ?
Take care everyone, numbers are rising here at a concerning rate and my consultant has urged me to be really cautious, as my medication has compromised my immune system and the efficacy of the vaccine.
Here I go again, I'm thoroughly fed up with it all!!! ?

Good morning, Mick and all who follow from a cloudy Crewe.

I’m travelling home by train today after a therapeutic visit to my DD2 and family. Yesterday we visited the Indian Summer Fest at Northwich which was fun. The last festival I attended was The Jazz and Blues Festival in Reading in 1967!

Wishing everyone a good week and a happy outcome from any worries of any kind. Take care. ???

Good morning from a grey E Kent. We are promised a ton of rain later, but I’m not holding my breath.
Just cleaning today.
I have read a lot recently; I go in phases. I always read, but sometimes I read much more, like at the moment. I suppose it is if a book really grips me.
Have a good day everyone. ?????☀️??

Good Morning Everyone,
Its bright sunny start here in Brackley tis morning , hopefully will remain like that .
Unsure who else has Windows 10 , but I got a upgrade on it a few weeks back which indicates weather and temperature locally at the time of day .
Today , a quiet day no Tour De France as its the 1st rest day , only thing of note is at lunchtime as Bargain Hunt with Charlie Ross , comes from the Antiques Cellar , Charlie apparently lives locally as well.
Take Care,
Mick
