Good Morning Friday 3rd June 2022 Jubilee Day 2

Morning Mick and all from a cloudy Espana where hopefully it will brighten up for a Jubilee fashion show ??at one of our local bars this afternoon - even the Spanish will be joining us!

Good to see Majorca and Ibiza receiving Gransnetters visits - their economy can do with a boost! Hope all enjoying staycations get decent weather ?for their walks NannyJan ChrissieLou

Must dash as Mr PG has produced a bacon ? tostada and the chamberpot ☕️ ?

Stay well Mick and all in the sickbay ?

Good morning from a bright E Kent.
That’s a good idea, Mick, but it’s a shame that we have so little medical support with all those bank holidays.
Quiet day yesterday, ditto today. DS spent the night with an old colleague and is going to see the T/20 cricket at at Canterbury this afternoon with one of his school friends.
Have a lovely jubilee day, keep safe. Carpe diem. ?????☀️☀️???

Good morning Mick, Pantglas and all who follow.

Hope you get sorted Mick with your injuries.Do you have a minor injuries unit nearby you could go to.

Was up at 5 today?seem to have one good nights sleep then a couple of disturbed nights.

Yesterday was a relaxing day watching trooping the colour then reading in the afternoon.Today DD has invited us over.We will all walk into the village to the ‘jubilee event’.

Thinking of all with illness,worries and struggles??

Today is the last day of our holiday. We are driving home tomorrow and hope it won’t be a 7-hour marathon again! We have booked lunch out today and then maybe a wander round Cardigan. We will do most of our packing this evening as we have to be out of the cottage by 9.30 am tomorrow. ??? for the GMs.

Morning all

Oh dear Mick sorry to hear you have had another injury.

A lazy day ahead, dinner at a local restaurant where one AC and GC will join us.

Enjoy the Bank Holiday

Keep safe and well folks ?‍♀️?

Good morning everyone from an overcast Northampton; sunny spells forecast for later, so I may do some washing.

Enjoyed watching yesterday's Jubilee events on tv, and managed to find time to cut the back grass in the afternoon. Opened a bottle of fizz and had a glass or two!

Will watch the service this morning, then throw a curry into the slow cooker before I go out to the shops after lunch. And then have another glass of fizz when I get back.....

Hope you can manage to get sorted soon Mick.

Enjoy the day everyone.

Good morning all from an overcast North Leicestershire.

Our Well Being Choir is 'singing' in a nearby village - looking like rain so I am pleased we will be in the village hall.

Have the best day possible everyone.

Here’s Matt.

Good morning everyone from Ibiza. Another day in paradise (well, for those of us who do love this kind of life - sun, sea, sand, sangria, and ??). ‘Fly & flop’ as you say GG13! Actually I’d never heard the expression before and it made me giggle. Himself had to take 2 paracetamol at bedtime as he’d had 2 little monkeys climbing on his shoulders and swinging on his neck in the pool yesterday! He’s up for more battering again today. I do not know where he gets his energy!

Morning Urmstongran so pleased you are enjoying your fly and flop ??

Good morning everyone from Inverness where it’s cloudy just now but forecast to stay dry
I’m off to the gym for a splash around in the pool later and then catching up with my friend with a coffee in the afternoon
Safe journey home llfl
Enjoy your singing kitty
Hoping everyone finds something to enjoy today and take care all whatever the day brings ?

Good Morning everyone from Severnside where it’s dry and cloudy.

Happy hat shopping for next year Urm.

A good trip to the tip yesterday with Beechnutella but when I came to get the recycling ready last night I noticed I’d forgot to take a few items with us. Not to worry as I can get them in my car, at least the most important stuff has gone. I did more painting when she went home and will crack on with it again today as I’m getting a bit fed up of doing it if I’m honest and can’t wait to finish so I can then sort out the garage as to what I want back in the shed.

Have a good day all especially if you’re spending time at Jubilee events ?????

Good morning all from a cloudy Glasgow, where its currently 10°C.

Mick, I think you should contact your GP surgery about your low BP. I may be wrong, but I don't think you can get a prescription for low BP. The first step, is to find the cause of your low BP. Perhaps your heart meds need tweaked, that's why you need to seek help. Something you can do in the meantime is to drink plenty of water.

I'm still recovering from yesterday's dental experience, sans an anaesthetic!
The pin from the old crown, had snapped in my gum and it had to come out.
There is a Scottish word, houk, which the dentist had to do to remove the pin. It was not pleasant at all. My RA is now affecting my jaw and I was in agony. ?
Anyway, all over now and hopefully a new crown in a couple of weeks.

A busy day ahead for us, as Dollie is coming for a sleepover. We will be playing at musical beds, as DD and SIL have taken over her room and she is not too happy about it. Her mum and dad are going on a rescheduled date, postponed twice due to Covid.
Her plan was to come for breakfast, but that was a step too far! I'm not sure what we will do, it all depends on Miss Spotty Dotty being allowed out. I have no doubt her forward plan has already been written.

I wish you all a good day. For those with plans, enjoy and if you are travelling, safe journey.
Urms, lovely news about your daughter.

Good morning all and the sun is shining ☀️.

I really enjoyed the Tv coverage of the Jubilee celebrations yesterday but kept having interruptions with visitors- little gd and mum, ds1 and wife, twin gs’s popped in on their way to their friends. Lovely to see them all, of course! ?.

Today we are going to DS1’s for coffee and then on to meet our usual Friday lunch bunch at our old country pub. Last week our friend who had a stroke in March came along and is doing so well. Lovely to see her.

Best wishes to all and have a good day. ??

Good morning all! Wet start in Cumbria but brightening up. DH has already left for a day looking at vintage buses! Not my thing at all!I am not sure how I'll spend the day yet. Yesterday it was our UA's couple's wedding anniversary and we looked after the children for 3 hours in the afternoon while they had a few treats in town. We took them to the park and they enjoyed running around, eating ice cream and collecting sticks!! The parents are indoor people which we are not used to with young children! Having had 5 children I always found a trip out every day was essential! This is creating a few tensions as you can imagine with lively children. Still when you are used to living in a flat in a city things are very different. Hope everyone has a good day especially those who are struggling.

Good morning everyone, it’s a cloudy start here in Ceredigion but fingers crossed it brightens up soon.
Off to Ynyslas shortly for a long walk along the beach, then bacon butties and coffee me thinks!
Have a lovely day everyone x

Good morning from a sunny and bright Essex by the sea.
More food shopping to do this morning, not sure about this afternoon .
Congratulations to Urms daughter.
Enjoy Bank Holiday Friday everyone xx

Good morning all from East Yorkshire. It’s a bit overcast but looks like it could be sunny later.

Yesterday I enjoyed watching trooping the colour. All that pageantry was a joy to see. In the afternoon we went to the jubilee event close by. We enjoyed ice creams GS saw his first Punch & Judy which he got very involved in! I also bumped into one of my coffee morning ladies and her family there. It was a lovely relaxed occasion with families out enjoying the day. We came home late afternoon and just walked back a short distance early evening to watch the fly past of 2 spitfires ahead of the flotilla. We didn’t stay to see the flotilla as we were both shattered. I did see footage of it on a fb page. We’re lucky enough to live close enough that we could also see the fireworks at the end of the evening from our back bedroom. A wonderful display.

Today I’ll have a look at the service from St.Paul’s and might have a trip out somewhere this afternoon.

Take care everyone and enjoy your day.

Good morning from sunny Colchester.
DS came home last night exhausted after servicing one of the Jubilee flypast helicopters. He has been given Monday off in lieu.
I'll get his laundry done and out on the line as we're promised another dry, warm day here.
We need to shop for the weekend too.
The neighbouring park was heaving yesterday with jubilee events and we enjoyed a local gun salute and some of the flypast before catching the rest on TV.
I think there's a bit of a lull today while stuff is set up for the weekend. The weather doesn't look like it'll hold up though.
Love to all ? x

Morning all,

It’s a grey, drizzly start here today, but it’s supposed to brighten up a bit later.

We managed to have our dinner in the garden yesterday, which made a lovely change. We raised a toast to HM, of course ?.

Not sure we’ll be eating outside today unless it warms up.

No major plans for today. I’ve a few plants to plant outside, but that’s about all, then I think I might just relax with my book.

Hope you get sorted soon, Mick - sorry to read you’ve had a fall again and grazed your face and blackened your eye.

Have the best day you can, everyone.

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. I didn’t post yesterday because I was out very early to go walking, so I missed the fact that you had had a fall, Mick. Look after yourself.
We were supposed to be having a family walk yesterday but DSiL has a shocking cold and GS went running with his friends and then played football, so it was just DD and me, up on Stanage Edge early, in glorious sunshine with a cool breeze. It was quiet when we set out but on the way back it was thronged with people and families enjoying the countryside. Lots of climbers too. Today I am being gently encouraged to go to a Jubilee tea party organised by one of our neighbours; I haven’t made my mind up yet whether I can face it on my own. I hope the weather stays dry for it anyway.
Have the best day you can folks.

Good morning from a cloudy Oxfordshire, oh! The sun has just come out….
Busy day house working yesterday and more today, but the new kitchen fridge is being delivered today, we’ve had 2 new thermostats fitted over it’s 15 yr life so this time it had to go. surprised it’s being delivered on a Bank Holiday, but we didn’t realise it at the time.

Funny thing on our local FB page yesterday one person asked when the trooping of the colour was going to fly over the village!

She was told by quite a few people that Trooping of the Colour didn’t have anything to do with the Fly Past!

We had a few stragglers fly over on their way to Fairford following the fly past and caught a glimpse of the red arrows and 4 others (jet type planes).

Anyway, have a good day everyone, hope the sun shines on us all.

Morning all from sun and high cloud in S Hants. Matt reminds me of Mrs Cropley in Dibley Urns.
Loved watching the fly past on TV yesterday.
We have children here later for bbq, then we’re off to bowls, if I can still move, our local has live music.
Enjoy your day all ??

Morning from a daily lurker in Staffs where it looks dry but overcast. What a performance yesterday. Supermarkets open but not GP, pharmacy, local A&E so had to ring 111 cos DH’s UTI started again. After some time on the phone an appointment was made for 7pm at hospital some 7 miles away-as opposed to nearby town hospital. I thought b****r that and fortunately I can drive and we have a car so I drove him there straightaway. Was seen by a GP-slotted in between appointments when the waiting room had emptied. Prescription given then, having consulted list that doc
(From Birmingham A&E-so they’ll be a man down!) had , dropped DH off at home to eat and, more importantly, drink then off to bed for his siesta and onto supermarket pharmacy (open til 4pm) where they had last packet of necessary antibiotics! I dread to think of performance if they’d run out. All this meant I was too tired to join my choir for Jubilee events at church-v ?

Good morning from cloudy Leicestershire.

Busy day with DD and SiL yesterday, today promises to be the same.

Wishing every one the best day possible.
