Good Morning Everyone,
Its a dark and dry start here in Brackley this morning , Yesterdays trip to see the last Bond film was OK , enjoyed it , the reason I say last was it gave me the impression the way the story went ,and the film ending a Lois Armstrong number from an earlier Bond film as well.
Today usual trip to Bicester later on the bus , coffee etc at the bakery cafe and small shop after .
Take Care ,
Mick

It was really foggy here on the edge of Dartmoor, but it's clearing now and the sun is trying to shine.
Going on the moors today with my son and his partner, and my granddaughter who is over on a visit from Ireland this week.
It's all good!

Good morning Mick and everyone from a rather dark Carlisle where rain is forecast later. It is not quite as dark in the house as it has been though...I have been able to nab a window cleaner, he was cleaning for the neighbours, the first time I've seen any windows done round here. There was probably little point in having them done until recently as dust has been constantly blowing down the road from the building site.
I'm not sure what the rest of the day holds, I would like to go out in the garden as I need to clear off more turf before my ordered shrubs arrive but it's probably going to have to be indoor pottering.
Good luck with that foot, Blossoming, let's hope it improves steadily .
It's tough for you, harrigran, I do hope you manage to grab some rest during the day, always in my thoughts.

Good morning from a sunny W Kent. Special day here as seeing DD1 for the first time in two years, can hardly wait.
Thinking of you harrigran and congratulations on anniversary grandMattie.
Hope the foot improves soon Blossoming.

Good morning Mick and all from a cloudy Lancashire coast. Glad you enjoyed the film Mick, I just don’t fancy it. Seen a couple as everyone does, but find them boring.
The cat decided to sleep next to me in its cosy round bed last night for the first time in months, nice. Maybe because it’s getting colder.
The lunchtime recital yesterday was very good, a 14 year old violinist exceptional. It takes some practice to achieve that.
Such a hard time for you harrigran and thoughts to grandMattie?

Morning Mick and all

Oh dear harrigran what a bittersweet anniversary for you today ?

grandMattie pleased you enjoyed your anniversary meal ?

Not sure what I am doing today, I didn’t sleep that well and could be lazy, but then I will feel guilty for wasting a precious day.

Keep safe and well folks ?‍♀️?

Good morning from the Scottish Borders. It says 10 degrees cloudy but feels mild.
Oh Harrigran wishing you a happier day flowers
grandMattie Happy anniversaries. smile

We clocked up 51 years but DH's parents made it to 76. Now MiL and I are both widows trying to make the best of life.

Marydoll you are an inspiration!

I have several things I must do today and have to work out priorities.

Lovely photos Baubles

Seize the day.

Good morning from a cloudy Essex by the sea.

It is DH's birthday today, old enough to receive his state pension now. We are going out for a meal this evening to a local pub.

Happy Anniversary to the Grandmatties and also the Harrigrans.

Food shopping beckons this morning if there is anything left on the shelves and I'm sure DH will hear from his daughters and grandchildren later.

Have a pleasant Thursday everyone xx
