Good Morning Wednesday 4th May 2022

grandMattie you are in my thoughts on this sad day. ?

Morning Mick and all

Thinking of you and your family grsndMattie all the firsts are so terribly hard ?

Urmstongran I do hope that your Mums ring turns up ?

DD is now being pumped full of steroids as the antihistamines haven’t worked.

Keep safe and well folks ?‍♀️?

Good morning all from cloudy South Lanarkshire.

Thinking of you and your family today Mattie.

Urms, I’m sorry about your mum’s ring, I know that sick feeling when something of sentimental value is lost.

Happy anniversary Mr&MrsPantglas.

Wishing everyone the best day possible, especially those in poor health. ??

Good morning all from a cloudy S Hants.
My thoughts with you and your family today grandMattie ? Iris is admirable!
Happy Anniversary Pantglas ?
Well that’s very annoying Urmstongran and frustrating.
Busy day yesterday, my drive, which is usually about 30 minutes turned into an hour and a half as the nurse at surgery Doppler scanned my clients leg, never mind. I have the same client and his wife, taking them for their booster jabs, other than that, admin bits and watering.
Best wishes to those in distress or with heartache and sorrow.
If you can, enjoy your day ??

Yes, happy wedding anniversary Pantglas ??

Thinking of you and your family today, GrandMattie. Also, very impressed with the family fundraising. What a great way to honour Philip’s 40th birthday.

A quiet day planned here today. We’ll go to the local park for our walk today to check on progress at the coot’s nest ... they have 8 eggs!

Happy Anniversary Pantglas?

Good morning, all, on a fine day back in Torbay.

My homeward journey went well although the catering on the train from Birmingham New St to Newton Abbot wasn’t great, due to post Covid staffing issues. According to the steward, Cross Country negotiated severance agreements with staff during the pandemic and are now struggling to recruit.

Special thoughts of grandMattie and family on a poignant day. Well done to the fundraisers, especially Iris! Such spirit is admirable. Grandmother's granddaughter!

I sympathise with your frustration with your GP, ShazzaKanazza. My lovely cardiologist has already written to mine (cc to me) within a week of my hospital appointment, advising a return to water tablets. I wonder how long it will be until the practice contacts me!

My DGS3 is obsessed with dinosaurs, too, Grandmabatty, and brought a book about them to the restaurant on Monday! If you like Scrabble, harrigran, you might enjoy playing online. Google Classic Words for the App,

Condolences to hollysteers and thoughts with GrannyGravy13 and chrissielou with worries about your DD’s.

Back to the theatre today for a meeting and Wednesday Club, which will be a talk on Russian composers which I’m keen to hear, as would DH but he’s not here!! ☹️

Have as good a day as possible, everyone! ??????

Good morning Mick from a damp Oxfordshire, it rained last night, first time for many weeks.
Dog sitting day today, apart from that not too much to do, I might unearth some summery tops for our break next week, although they won’t be that Summery as we are only going to Devon. But the cottage is almost on the beach so I’ll be a happy bunny.
GM ? and hugs.
So sorry about the missing ring Urmstongran
Have a good day everyone and hug for those who arent so chipper today.

Good Morning from Severnside where there are some small blue patches showing.

I’ve got a job to do for my brother today who had me in fits of laughter last night. Sometime this morning I’ll have a chat with my friend who moved away and will be moving back.

My thoughts will be with you today Mattie ?

Happy Anniversary Mr&MrsPantglas have a lovely time together after your chores ?

Have the best day you can all ??

Buen dia Mick and all from a dark and damp ?? where norty Urms was too busy wetting her insides yesterday to bother with my outside...?.

To be fair the rain has washed away the orrible sand and our friend Karcher won’t be as busy today so we can get the little nest in order before a gallivant to Córdoba on Saturday ? I do love my coach trips out here as I get to nosey parker out the window and enjoy tapas and tipples ...?

Our wedding anniversary today so joining friends for dinner this evening but a trip to Lidl in Antequera to stock up with basics for me whilst Mr PG reacquaints himself with his mate, Karcher!

Hope things go better in the GG, Chrissie* Grandmattie abodes after my brief glimpse at yesterday’s news - ? to all with troubles at the moment x

May the 4th be with you!
Greetings from a dull E Kent. My washing is already on the line. I hope it dries quickly.
Today would have been my Philip’s 40th birthday, so DD, DGS, his mum and the girlfriend are coming over for a cuppa, slice of cake and memories of my darling boy. We also have two trees to plant in DGS’ mum’s garden in memory of Philip. An Amelanchier and a Liquidambar.
DD, DGS, the girlfriend and his best friend have, for the last 40 days, been running/walking/exercising to raise money for a men’s mental/physical health charity. They aimed to raise £1982 (the year of Philip’s birth) and have exceeded it, bless them.
Yesterday, DH had his booster. The outing wiped him out and he didn’t have a good night. The consultant is trying to persuade him to have a higher dose patch. We shall see.
Feeling a bit wobbly today. Like everything, it will pass.
Yesterday, Iris took part in a sponsored walk across Clifton suspension bridge, 100 walks apparently. The group, Flamingo chicks (dancing for less able children) managed 111 crossings. Well done them! Iris went on crutches and scooter.
I hope Marydoll and all in sickbay had a better night and are feeling a bit revitalised today. Carpe diem, dear friends. ??????????

Here’s Matt.

Good morning Mick and everyone who follows from a grey start here in Malaga. We are forecast a slight breeze, showers and a high of (only) 19°C. Never mind, after today it’s wall-to-wall sunshine for May.

I’m upset because I’ve lost my mum’s wedding ring (when she married my stepfather she gave me the ring from when she was married to my dad). I’m so cross with myself. My fingers were puffy when we went out for a long walk on Friday or Saturday and after tugging it off I didn’t put it away safely. I was too cavalier in my attitude. I have checked the handbag I used - nope. I checked it carefully 3 times yesterday evening you know how your mind thinks ‘it will be stuck in a corner if I just check once more’? I must have got my phone out of the little side zip and pulled it with it by mistake. It’s only of sentimental value but I’m sad.
?
I went to bed thinking ‘mum wouldn’t want me to be tearful over this small thing’. x
