Good Morning Tuesday 12th October 2021

Good morning all from a very dark Glasgow.

Mick, we went to see the Bond film at the 11am showing, in a very empty cinema. It is 160 minutes long, but about half an hour of that was trailers and adverts. If you missed out the trailers, could you fit the bus times round seeing it? I hadn't been to the cinema, since seeing the last Bond film! ?

Yesterday's hospital visit was quite stressful. I am not a wimp and hospitals never phase me, but a combination of feeling below par, struggling to walk, shunted from room to room, between nurses, as no-one could get blood from me and then being unable to find His Lordship in the car park ( not answering his phone) got too much for me.

Much to my embarrassment, I burst into tears in the middle of the hospital car park? Unfortunately, no handsome professor came to comfort me, as happens in my Korean medical dramas ?, just a grumpy old Mr Doll.)
I have scaled almost insurmountable mountains of medical problems, but couldn't cope with something as simple as this!

In the middle of the blood fiasco, my phone kept ringing ( I know I should have switched it off). On checking my phone, there was a text from my SIL, saying he was round the corner in A&E, seeking help for the foot, he had hurt on the island of Islay on Friday. The prolonged ringing of the phone was my DD phoning to unburden herself to me about SIL!!
Life is never simple!

We were expecting a Scottish Gas engineer today, as we have problems with the electricity in our lounge. Unfortunately, the person who phoned me to cancel the appointment yesterday ?, nearly got short shrift, as he called just after a number of scam calls. Poor man! I had to apologise for my cold tone.
The first available appointment is next Monday, that's a shocking ten day wait, because its not an emergency.

A gentle day for me, I think. Keeping all our lovely Goodmorningers in my thoughts and prayers. I am going back to read the thread now and awaiting room service, with my morning cuppa to take some of my meds. I would advise you not to stay in this hotel, the service is dreadful! ?

Have the best day possible, everyone.

Lovely photos baubles

Good morning all from the Black country.
Need to go to the bank, went yesterday and found they'd closed for an 1hr most unusual, to lazy to walk back round again later.
Ironing to do and curry for tea.
Enjoy your day and may you all find some ?.

Good morning. N. Bucks is dry and looking like it will brighten up .
Dd3 calling in this morning with little GS . First cuddle for a fortnight as they kept away while GS2 isolated with Covid.
Later I have a zoom meeting and a report to write for a local magazine. Craft work for the rest of the day .
Thoughts with all who have troubles and struggles and a smile for everyone.

Good morning Mick, morning all from Northumberland. I’m not sure what the weather is doing as I haven’t looked outside.

Yesterday was warm and sunny and drove a few miles the walked across farmland to Dunstanburgh Castle. Such beautiful views. Lunch sitting outside the Jolly Fisherman was delicious.

I’m not sure what we’re doing today, a trip on a light railway has been mentioned so perhaps that.

Wishing everyone a peaceful day. ??

Good morning all. It’s a dry one here in East Yorkshire.

Coffee morning for me today. Then I will have an easy afternoon as we are having dgs after school today.
It is the annual fair here this week and DS took him last night and sent me some lovely photos.

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning Mick and all his followers. It’s hazy sunshine in Suffolk so far.

What a shame about your film Mick - we are going this afternoon. When I booked there were very few seats taken, so we should be pretty distanced.
Another one here who had a bad night - I too was up and down to the loo, then not able to drop off.
I’m pleased your daughter is there to help Harri and try to take a few minutes for yourself.
I hope the day is kind to everyone.

Morning Mick, morning All. A dry start to our corner of Somerset. It feels decidedly chilly.

Hope to get out today, Mr C is in need of a coffee and cake fix. Exhaustion took over yesterday so little activity. Need some oomph back as we’ve a legal issue brewing that will need energy, time and patience to negotiate.

Hope you can rest later grandMattie, pleased you’ll have support from your daughter today harri. 7.5 miles nannyjan? Well done you.

Take care everyone. Hope Tuesday is kind to us all.

Good morning from a dawning Colchester where the heating is on and the sky looks a flat light grey.
Tuesday is my day at the charity shop. I will buy dinner on the way home. Our habits are reverting to pre pandemic daily shops as we have a choice within 5 minutes walk.

Love to all ?x

Good Morning all from Severnside where it’s dry and looks like another warm sunny ahead.

I’m off swimming soon and then a day at working around the house.

Have a good day all ?

Good morning from a still dark Black Country.

Our walk yesterday covered 7.5 miles. I was absolutely shattered. So after lunch had a snooze, then was very achey and stiff!

Two yearly eye-test this morning, then flu jab this afternoon. Such excitement!

MrJ off on a long cycle ride with his club, so won't be home till late afternoon. So may get on with housework, or maybe finish my book

Enjoy your day everyone.

Good morning all, it’s dark, dry I think, in S Hants. Well that’s annoying Mick. I was up and down to the toilet overnight as I was drinking Pepsi last night, I’d forgotten that’s what it does to me.
A voluntary drive this morning, video call with the banks financial advisor and bathrooms to clean. Then the dreaded shirt ironing…
Hope you get some rest gM, that GrandmaSomerset has hot water and you harrigran can grab at least 10 minutes of rest.
Have a pleasant day all ??.

Morning Mick and all

We are looking after The Imp today, might visit the Farm Shop, nothing else planned.

Keep safe and well folks ?‍♀️?

Blooming early start ! DH playing golf so brought me a cuppa.
Meeting friend for coffee. First time in a cafe/ restaurant/ pub in 18 months.
Have the best day possible everyone.

Good morning Mick grandMattie and harri and all who follow. I slept badly last night, got up and made a cuppa at 3am and couldn’t get back to sleep. Oh well, I cab be in bed after Children’s Hour if need tonight!

I’m making the SOAP dish for daughter & son in law this morning and Himself will drive round and drop it off at lunchtime whilst I walk up to meet some friends for lunch. They are book clubbers - but this is a splinter group who like to meet once a fortnight as all are retirees.

Later, early evening, Himself will take the Boy Wonder to his football practice.

Enjoy Tuesday all who can. x

Good morning from a dry NE.
Busy day yesterday which was tiring as I was under par after the vaccination.
Last night I made roast pepper soup, better use of the peppers and tomatoes as I wasn't finding the time to prepare salad during the day.
DD will probably visit today, she is good at sorting financial matters and other admin things and it will allow me to get on with the caring of DH.

Good morning from a chilly, dark E Kent.
Had a bad night and been awake for the last 3 hours. I hope I can fit in a nap after lunch.
I’m going back to Tai Chi this morning then we’re off to the supermarket this afternoon l. Such excitement!
Enjoy your celebrations thosecwith birthdays and anniversaries.
Carpe diem. Love well. ?????

Good morning, everyone, from a dry, calm Torbay.

That’s a shame about the Bond film, Mick. I believe it’s a very long one.

An early start today for an appointment with the dental hygienist. Then a couple of Zoom meetings will keep me out of mischief!

Have a good day, everyone. ?????
