Good morning everyone from a calmer but cool (3.0c) south coast. Set to be windy again this afternoon but nowhere near Eunice's performance yesterday. She blew over a large pot with an evergreen shrub outside the kitchen door and scattered other bits and pieces over the garden but otherwise no damage.

We are due to get the click and collect between 7 and 8am then nothing else planned for the day. Might put some chicken thighs and veg. in the slow cooker for an easy meal. I seem to have lost interest in cooking after so many years of providing meals. I eat to live these days.

DS and DGD due back from the French Alps today so I hope the flights are not as hairy as the ones shown on TV news last night!

Take care and have the best day you can everyone sunshine.

Hope GrannySomerset has an uplifting weekend after a tough day yesterday ? and indeed for all with worries about loved ones health Henetha you’ve had a double dose of bad news ??

A bit of packing ? at Pantglas Towers today as I’m off on a Jolly Girls Outing with a friend down to Cardiff tomorrow for some sightseeing, shopping, scoffing and swigging of ?? - no don’t feel sorry for me, someone’s got to do it....?

Yes. Me too, I had to lookup the meaning of gibbous. It means between 3/4 and 1/2 the moon is illuminated!

Good morning from a clear dark E Kent. Seems like Eunice has blown away every cloud. The gibbous moon is looking lovely in the west and Venus still very bright in the dawning eastern sky.
I hope no one has suffered too much with rain, wind and snow. Apart from a terrible buffeting, we only lost a fence panel which has squashed my new little red elder for a second time. ?. It will recover.
I’ll probably visit my old friend in the nursing home today, possibly this afternoon. Plenty of rugby with the six nations cupbfor DH; I’m banished as I ask questions and it really annoys him.
A beef casserole tonight with some skirt froths freezer. Dumplings too, methinks.
I hope today is a good one for everyone. Carpe diem. ?????
