Morning from a very frosty West Oxfordshire. I am not actually up yet but had a peek through the curtains earlier. Hope your ear improves Mick. It is my online V&A course this morning. Two lectures on Signs and Symbols in Art. I can’t wait until they restart in person courses. I have just heard that the Christmas presents I posted to my sister in Australia, at the end of November by airmail, have finally arrived!

Keep safe and well folks ?‍♀️?

Good Morning everyone from a chilly south coast (-2.0). No sign of fog here though there is a weather warning on the BBC weather site for our county.

DH did a long spell in the front garden yesterday and the sun felt quite warm in the afternoon. Lots of passers-by stopped for a chat so he is up to date with local neighbours' news! He is a good worker once motivated and I do what I can with my dodgy knees and back problems, mainly cheer leading these days.

Glad your ear is healing Mick. Bit of a trek for you to get to the hospital though.

Sending best wishes to all with health or family worries and hoping the day is a good one for us all. sunshine

Gooood morning from a very brrrrrrr Yorkshire.
Good news about your ear Mick, sorry it happened in first place.

Today i am visiting my friend to take her birthday presents which is today, I was supposed to go last week but she wasnt well.

The central heating decided to cease working 2 weeks ago ( grrrrrr ) so today, after someone fix it, heat will circulate the house THANK GOODNESS.

I am making a drawstring bag using material i got with the Disney Frozen design, for my youngest granddaughter, its beautiful material, all sparkly. Very apt design considering we have indeed been flippin FROZEN with no central heating... brrrrrrrrr.

Enjoy your day everyone....

Good morning from North Wales.
Glad you have had your ear bandaged Mick. I hope it will heal up well now.
I will go into town later as I need a few things from the chemist.
Have a good day everyone.

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire where it is very frosty, or it could even be a dusting of snow!
Off on Nanna duties shortly, after dropping the eldest at nursery DGD and I are meeting my sister for a coffee before picking DGS up at lunch then off home to do DD pots from last night (which seems to be coming a habit?)
We will probably watch a film this afternoon as it is so cold.
Take care everyone and stay safe and upright❤️

Good morning from a frosty, moonlit E Kent. Jolly chilly when I went to put the food bin out.
Glad your appointment went OK Mick despite the three buses.each way!
DGD1 has developed CV19 and is housebound. Apparently, she is fine. The rest of the family is still negative. Testing daily, of course…
Yesterday, because the biscuit tin was nearly empty, I made some shortbread and some brownies. The latterip is the easiest thing to do - just mix the ingredients and bake. How easy is that?
I’ve got a haircut at 0830, a dentist appointment at 1130, supermarket shop in the afternoon and a WI craft group in the evening. Barely time to draw breath!
I hope today is kind to you all, especially the ones with pericarditis, please keep us informed. Carpe diem. ????☀️???

Good Morning everyone from Severnside where there is a heavy frost. The moon is streaming through the windows where there are no curtains.

I hope you go on ok with your ear Mick and it heals well.

I’m not swimming this morning. I don’t fancy going out in the cold. I do have to pop next door though to tell my neighbours I have a big parcel for them. The courier did say he’d leave a note ?
I’ll potter today and FaceTime with Beechnutella when she finishes work. I expect her commute will involve going downstairs.

Have the best day you can all as there are a several AC worries ❄️??

Good morning from dark Leicestershire.

Pleased your appointment went well Mick.

Up very early as I have to be at the TIA Clinic for 9.
Hoping they don’t find anything but it could be an all day job.

Wishing everyone a good day.
