Good Morning Friday 18th February 2022

Glad to hear your daughter is feeling better Chrissielou

We have had snow here in lowland Scotland. No wind as yet but this is meant to be coming up from the south, it perhaps has not reached us yet. I have a big pot of soup made. Please everyone take care. Thinking of those in the more serious areas of the storm.

Good morning everyone from a very bright and windy Northampton. Have battened down the hatches and am staying in. Did my shop yesterday instead, after my ballet lesson. When I got home I went round the garden and put everything away that could be blown about.

Am very late this morning, so will go back and read everyone's 'doings' later.

So no plans really for today except Hoover downstairs, which I meant to do yesterday, but ran out of time or inclination! Then read the paper, do the puzzles and crossword, and then continue reading Death on the Nile, as I shall be seeing the new film on Sunday.

Lovely bag grandMattie!

Take care and stay safe everyone.

Good Morning to you all from a windy N.,Cambs.,

Warm thoughts for GrannySomerset

Stay safe in the storm folks.
Worrying for our little "home-from-home", on the NW Norfolk coast. It's as safe as we can make it, so just have to hope for the best!

Good morning from the NE, windy but no snow, I am just twelve miles north of Georgesgran and she has snow.
I won't be going out as SIL and I did a big shop yesterday.
Another day of shredding papers, I can not believe that DH kept every bill and receipt back to the year dot. Maybe it was deliberate to keep me occupied, he succeeded.
Take care if you have to leave the house.

Morning everyone from a very windy north Kent coast where we are told it will get even windier as the day progresses. Think the flood gates are closed on the seafront. Everything either moved or tied down in the garden so it’s just a case of staying in and watching the big London plane tree on the road outside the house. Thankfully it was pollarded last year, but it is still a monster.

Been in touch with DD and family who are on holiday near York; have been looking at the posts from our Yorkshire grans to see what it is like up north. They are sharing a large holiday house with friends so should be ok.

Thoughts with GrannySomerset on a difficult day.

Hope you all stay safe and battened down.

Very windy in south Devon near Dartmoor. It's times like this that I wish I lived in bricks and mortar.
Unbelievably bad news yesterday. Brother in law in Scotland is dying of pancreatic cancer. And brother in Canada has just been diagnosed with prostate cancer.

Good morning all from a sunny windy W Kent. henetha so sorry to hear the devastating news you received yesterday my thoughts are with you.

Thank you for kind thoughts, luluaugust

Thinking of GrannySomerset today.
Windy in Anglesey and Eunice hasn’t even arrived yet. Praying my lifeboatman son doesn’t get called out in this.
Vertigo sufferers, google the epli manoeuvre, lots of Utube videos showing how it’s done to balance those crystals.
Be careful everyone, stay indoors unless it’s vital that you go out.
Poor old flamingos might struggle in the wind but fingers crossed they’re around for all.

Henetha ??

Oh dear henetha I am so sorry to read your news (((hugs)))

Sorry to hear that sad news Henetha ?

What lovely people you all are. Thank you so much. This is a very difficult time and so sad, but definitely helped by the kind messages from so many of you. Thank you sincerely.

Good Afternoon Mick and all Morningsters. ?

The red wind warning is down to a yellow one today. Yesterday I managed a walk for Mya along the edge of our wood and up the track and noticed one tree down but all the safety measures we spent hours on the day before have paid off. Our precious polytunnels are intact.

Thinking of Grannysomerset on such a difficult day.

Sorry to hear your sad news Henetha ?

? I didn't post yesterday's GM (Friday) and went to what I thought was Saturday's today.
Read your messages and posted and now, after a dig in the ribs, I realise I have posted on Friday's GM. ?

I will now go in search of Saturday's GM.

Me too muse, realised just in time.
