Good Morning Everyone,
Its dark , but its dry here in brackley this morning, todays plans will get a later bus to Bicester and plan to see Steven Spielberg's West Side Story.
And return home later , also yesterday , I went to a local printers who lamented all vaccination cards , it will be interesting until I get the NHS letter to see what the cinema situ is like.
Take Care,
Mick

Good morning all from dull N Bucks. I’m awaiting my PCR test result which I am 99% sure will be negative , but…..
I was “pinged” on Tuesday so did a LFT (negative) but advised to book a PCR to be sure ☹️☹️
It brings home to me how many people with “cold-type” symptoms should perhaps be taking them seriously and also avoiding cinemas, theatres etc.
My “ping” contact would have been the day I went to Birmingham by train to see the Nutcracker, despite everybody being masked and presumably most of them jabbed and boosted. I will be avoiding any sort of public venue for a bit now.
I hope you enjoy West Side Story, Mick it looks amazing, but I’ll be waiting until January as the Omicron variant seems to be spreading faster than we could have imagined , so take care (S Northants featured today as a Covid/Omicron variant hotspot, it’s not just London and the cities).
Fingers crossed for everybody’s continued health and safety especially in this run up to Christmas.

Good luck with your result Maw.

When we arrived here to mind the grandchildren our daughter has decided no ice show on Monday at the Trafford Centre and she’s going to cancel the tickets they’d booked for the circus on Boxing Day. She’s decided ‘events’ are out.

Good job she never tells the children in advance about any trips.

Good morning Mick and all from Cloudy Chambers northwest coast. I’m home all day thank goodness and will have a clear up etc, dashing out every day has left a bit of a mess. I have a floordrobe in the bedroom, papers etc everywhere. Tiring practice yesterday and the songs are still not quite right for Xmas gigs, mostly due to our maestro producing new songs every three minutes.
There were a few worrying tales on yesterday’s thread, I hope things improve for everyone and look forward to reading through later.

Thank you for all your good wishes. I am indeed fit to burst Jaxjacky and almost climbing the walls with excitement ginny. In fact I was so excited I changed my son into a daughter! Hooray - they are on their way.

Great picture GrandmaSue not long now. I bet it’s been a long day for you whilst you’ve been waiting. Enjoy the hugs.
