Good morning from the Scottish Borders. Bright and sunny here for a nice change. It has been wild lately.
Quaker meeting this morning, with prayers for peace, and then to lunch with my in-laws. They have come across some family albums showing DH as a boy.
DGS birthday today but since he lives in NZ he is tucked up in bed already after a wonderful party in the park. I miss them so much.
I am so glad that Iris is home, grandMattie
Feeling for you BlueSapphire on this day.

Safe travels Urmston. How long are you away this time?
Have a good day everyone.

Good Morning everyone from Severnside. We have sunny sunshine so I’ll go and work in the garden today. I’d like to get a lot of tidying done and my garden chairs washed by Easter.

I’ve noticed the good news about Iris and BlueSapphires day ? so I’ll go back and read everyone else’s news.

Have a good day all and safe journey to #lazygranning in Malaga Urm ????

Good morning from a sunny and bright Essex by the sea.
DH is going to rugby with his grandson this morning.
This afternoon we are going to the pub to watch the Carabao Cup final.
DH was born in Wallasay and is a big Liverpool supporter.
Enjoy Sunday everyone xx

Good morning all from bright and cold South Lanarkshire.

I have little ones this morning and I’m shattered after very broken night as one of them threw up in the bed they were sharing.

I’ll try to catch up with the thread later. Meantime have a good Sunday everyone.

Good morning everyone! It’s a beautiful morning in Suffolk and like so many of you, I am heading for the garden. Tidying up, pricking out seedlings and general gentle enjoyment. I have a pot which I suspect is harbouring vine weevils so that will be investigated.
That sounds like a great night Baubles! DS did that once, about 30 years ago, and I still remember it vividly.
This afternoon it’s rugby but I think Italy will have a hard time of it. Yesterday was nerve wracking and there was a lot of shouting at the ref here, but we got the result in the end.
Happy holidays Urms and I hope the day is kind to everyone.

Good morning from a sunny NE ?
It was very windy again during the night so it was quite noisy.
DS and family came yesterday afternoon and the house felt like a home again.
Eldest GD likes to have a bath and puts her PJs on to go home, I suspect she falls asleep on the 45 minute journey home.
DD will be coming for dinner tonight, l am going to make her a nut roast and my mushroom sauce which she loves. Last supper really as she travels back to her home in Brussels on Tuesday.
Good to hear poorly people are discharged from hospital, best wishes for speedy recovery.

Good morning all from Carlisle where we have another sunny day. I'm discovering the downside to sunny days...I can see dust everywhere and marks on my windows inside. Window cleaning and dusting are not my housework strong points. I intend to deal with the problem today--by going outside where I can't see them!
I'm yet another one with unworn and barely worn garments in my wardrobe, 'just in case' clothes really. And clothes suitable for holidays in various climes. Obviously, social life and holidaying hasn't happened in the last 2 years. I'll be having a trawl through it soon but I suspect little will go. The problem is that charity shops probably won't want winter clothes now and, as for summer clothes, I might need them soon!
Hopefully, a pleasant day for you all, I'm off to read the Sundays and then it's out to plant things.

Good morning all,
I haven’t read all the posts yet, just the first few, but will go back to them after I’ve posted and breakfasted.

Good news for you, GM.

A day of mixed emotions for you today, BlueSapphire ?.

I hope Mick is enjoying York - he’s certainly got good weather for his trip, as our region is forecast another bright day.

A lazy day ahead again, I think.

Enjoy your Guinea fowl tonight, GM. I don’t blame you in the least for stocking up if you can - we all deserve a treat now and again. ?

Take care everyone.

Good morning from a sunny W Kent. Finished the last bit of ironing and will now telephone my brother and catch up with him. Glad Iris is doing well and good wishes to all.

Morning everyone from a blue-skied north Kent coast. Another beautiful day in store.

Spent the day in the garden yesterday with more jobs to potter through today. Lifts the spirits to be out in the sunshine with the bird song getting louder by the minute!

Safe travels Urms; an emotional day for you BlueSapphire; a lovely photo of your DH. ?

Hope you all have a good day

We’re away for three and a half weeks this time Grammaretto.

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Good morning from a chilly but sunny S Hants, good news on poorly people home.
Off to my brothers later today for a late lunch, we might catch some sport afterwards, exciting rugby yesterday, phew!
BlueSapphire ?
Safe journey Urms.
Have a good day all ??

Good morning Mick (if you’re reading this) and everybody. Thank you for kicking us off GrandMattie. It’s sunny and bright again in my corner of Lancashire this morning, currently 6°C.

Great news about Iris GrandMattie she has endured so much. Glad the house sale is done and dusted, one less thing to deal with.

Safe journey and enjoy your break Urmstongran. I’m using the NHS weight loss app to log my goals and keep my food diary. I weighed myself this morning and found I have lost 4kg and 3ins off my waist since starting the program.

The situation in Ukraine is so upsetting, l am so worried for the Ukrainian people.

Wishing you all a happy and peaceful Sunday. ?
