Good Morning Saturday 23rd April 2022

I'm another glad to hear your daughter's good news Gingster.

So glad to hear your DD’s good news Gingster.

Good morning all from sunny South Lanarkshire and a happy St George’s Day to all the English gransnetters.

Safe journey Urmston, you too Gwen enjoy your holidays.

Marydoll, hopefully the nausea won’t last too much longer.

I had a lovely relaxing day yesterday, got lots of admin done then tried on three dresses I’d ordered for an upcoming wedding and decided which one I would keep. This was actually the second batch, the others all went back!

DH wanted to go and look at plants even though it’s too early so we drove to a nursery near where we used to live, the owner, who is our age, was relaxing on a chair in one of his glasshouses and was delighted to see us as we’ve been buying from him for many years. We bought nothing (he wouldn’t sell anything yet) but had a great chat and will go back in a couple of weeks.

Housework today as it’s been rather neglected and a curry this evening.

Lots of busyness today by the sound of it, have the best day possible everyone.

Good morning. Not sure what the weather in N. Bucks is going to do today.
DH has to make a 50 mile round trip to pick up a part for our caravan. Then a food shop.
I have various projects to sort out and other jobs piling up so some lists need writing.
Lovely to hear about all the visits and holidays. Thoughts with those who have worries .

Good news for your daughter Gingster and love the bluebells

Good morning from a dull East Yorkshire. Happy St George’s Day English Grans.

Had a really lovely day in Bridlington yesterday. Started with coffee in the cafe at the Brid spa overlooking the sea. The tide was right in and we had a seat in the window which is floor to ceiling. With the waves going in and out it makes me feel a bit quesy (sp?) looking out to sea!
Fish and chips for lunch were delicious. We are so lucky to be able to go there for a few hours and be home in time for tea.

Today no plans yet. The family are back from holiday so we may see them. Tonight I have another dance show to go to starring one of the dancers from Strictly. Two in one week!

Safe travels Urms
Great to hear you had a good day GM and hope you get that call soon ?

Take care everyone.

A grey and breezy morning in Oxfordshire. Yesterday was distinctly chilly with a cold wind. We are having a lie in with a coffee after a busy week. After breakfast, more potting on planned as we have so many seedlings in the greenhouse. Tomato plants are looking strong and healthy too.
I hope you all have a lovely day and you find some sunshine wherever you are.

My toes are sandal ready! ??

Bluebells

Good morning all and it feels chilly. That wind yesterday morning was icy when I took little pooch out.

We enjoyed our lunch with friends yesterday , sitting around the log fire in our usual country pub. The last week has been so warm and now we are back to winter woollies and log fires. ?.

We had a lovely walk around Hanningfield reservoir to see the masses of bluebells. It’s a really good year for them. We saw tiny ducklings and fluffy green goslings. Nature at its best at this time of year! Glorious!

DD had some good news on the phone saying her two of the biopsies on her foot were clear. One was another mole, and the other was scar tissue . They will keep an eye on the other one.
She is still to have a biopsy on her groin but the appointment for Monday has been cancelled. She had no ill effects from the immunotherapy infusion and actually walked 7 miles yesterday. Can’t keep the girl down ?!

Sar and GG - where does the time go! Our coffee catch-up will have to wait ! ?.

Wishing you all a pleasant day. ???

Good Morning Mick and everyone from a cloudy and chilly Hull.
Happy St George’s Day ???????
Enjoy that beer Mick.
granMattie?

Today we have our DD coming over with DGDs this morning. She sent a video of baby B giving big smiles. I’ll put a buffet out for lunch. DS is picking up GS and they will come over as well it’s our usual Saturday.
Tonight we are going for a meal with our friends as it’s his birthday.

Enjoy your day of family visits, lovely walks and all other manner of activities and safe journey Urmstongran.
Best wishes to you all??

Good Morning all from the Scottish Borders. Chilly start again but yesterday turned out lovely and I did some gardening.
A bit more work was done on my kitchen though I am trying not to get excited. it's been ongoing since the middle of last year
The gas man was due to come at 7.30am to connect the cooker but I think these people's clocks are different from mine. Hey ho.
Happy travels all who are journeying today.
I hope the nausea stops soon Marydoll . That sounds hellish.
I'm about to pick flowers for the tables at the community cafe today. A job I love.

My phone is a bit fickle and keeps posting before I’m finished! Sad to see your family go GrandMattie but it seems to have done you all good to have had them there!
Marydoll hope you feel better soon.
We are off to Llandudno today for a week. It usually quite a busy week meeting up with Pantglas Then my sisters join us and we have some other friends we try to meet up with
Have a safe journey Urmston
Have the best day possible folks

Good morning all from sunny Harrogate

Good morning all from a cold and windy Black country.
Nothing planned today should be a quiet one they've closed the main road for resurfacing so they won't be using our road as a cut through to avoid the lights.
Tablet needs charging and full English calling so will catch up later.
Safe journey for those travelling, best wishes to anyone celebrating and virtual hugs where needed.
Enjoy your day and may you all find some ?.

Good morning everyone from a cloudy, grey and misty Inverness but hoping it improves later.
Safe journey on your travels Urms and enjoy your time away
Today we’re off to meet DD2 and DGS at the crazy golf in town as DGS loves going around it. We’ll then get lunch out somewhere. DGD and SiL have both got covid so they’ll be staying in.
Hoping you feel much better soon Marydoll and you can get out and about a bit
Hoping everyone finds something to enjoy today and take care all whatever the day brings ?

I forgot to wish all our English grans, a happy St George's Day.

Good morning all from a glorious Glasgow.

Glad to hear you a lovely day with the family GM, that must have given you a boost. My GP will arrange to phone, can't give a time and then phones at 7pm. They must think, if we are unwell, we won't be going anywhere, so no need for a specific time.

Not surprisingly, I have nothing much to report. Yesterday, I tried to report my anti viral reaction to the Yellow card site, but my account ( yes, I have an account, folks, so many reactions) had been deactivated and it wouldn't let me reactivate it.
Talk about efficient, it was reactivated as soon as I contacted them by email! It retains your past reports, in case you need to access them for your clinicians.
Efficiency like that is not exactly common these days.

I was also trying to research, for how much longer, I was going to feel nauseous. I can find lots about the medication side effects, but nothing about how long they last.

Wishing you all, a lovely day. A bit of sunshine does lift your spirits. ☹
I guess you are flying away again Urms, safe journey.

Morning Mick and all. Happy St. George’s Day ?????????????????????

Safe journey Urmstongran (my friend posted some beautiful photos from your part of Espana yesterday, glorious weather)

Sar53 I have no idea where this month has gone, cannot see us having a coffee before you are off.

It’s grey here also, but it’s trying to brighten up. Off to the local butchers and then back home on the sofa with my book, The Imp wore us out yesterday ???

Keep safe and well folks ??‍♀️

Good morning from a grey and overcast day in Essex by the sea.
Some last minute holiday shopping first thing then some food shopping later.
No plans this afternoon but a Chinese takeaway tonight.
Enjoy Saturday whatever you may be doing xx

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 6° and sunny, although I see clouds too. Yesterday was a pottering day and today looks similar. Washing the bedding, weeding, hoovering, cleaning bathroom and other tiring verbs. Have a good day all.

Good morning everyone from a cloudy Northampton. Feeling better after my haircut and colour yesterday. Hopefully we'll get a few sunny spells later on, which will be nice as I plan to cut the grass today.

Younger DGD (11) is being dropped off late morning, and big sister (14) will arrive this afternoon after her dance classes. They are staying overnight, as DD-out-law is off to a spa day in London to celebrate a friend's big birthday, and DS is working nights. They have requested roast chicken for dinner; I have also got chocolate fudge cake and ice-cream for dessert. Must make up their beds this morning. Be nice to have company for the day.

Hoping things go well for all today. Happy St George's Day!

Happy St George's Day!
I think most of the country is having an overcast start.
Let's hope it brightens up soon.

Good morning from a drizzly and cloudy Black Country.

Had a lovely day yesterday with DGD's (13 and 10 - soon to be 11 as she reminds me!) Went to Bridgnorth, and parked in Low town and took the Cliff railway to High Town. Lunch then cinema. Fantastic Beasts - The Secrets of Dumbledore, not my kind of film, but they enjoyed it. Came out to glorious sunshine. Then home to go out to see a Foo Fighters tribute band, good but loud!

This morning I am off to Birmingham on the train with my u3a Canal group. Its all go, but nothing planned for tomorrow, phew!

Have a good trip Urmston, we were last in Malaga in 2018 and wanting to go soon, but it won't be this year as we have booked Portugal in September, but definitely next year (hopefully)

Enjoy your Saturday everyone, with special thoughts of our missing posters, and all struggling with ill-health and worries for family

Good Morning everyone from Severnside. It’s dry and grey. I don’t mind grey as a colour except when it’s the sky.

I’m staying close to the house until my parcel is delivered and then I hope it’s warmed up enough to go into the garden. I have a few jobs to get on with. The new work to my shed is coming on a treat.

I’m glad you both enjoyed your family visit Mattie.
There sounds to be some fun things going on today so enjoy them and have a happy day all ??????????
