Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. I went back to sleep so am running late.
Yoga had been moved to Thursday this week and there's no Gaelic class. I try to keep to a routine of sorts as it helps.
Sorry for your added troubles Ash
gMattie . I just ring up. If you wait to be phoned back you never are. I rang for the result of last week's x-ray but was told it was far too soon. Really? There is at last a nice person in reception who is polite - a nice change.

I'm glad your picnic was enjoyable Oops

Have a great day .

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 13° and wet and gloomy. Lots of trouble on the thread today. ? For anyone who needs them. ? As well. I, too, had a bit of an unwell day yesterday. I suspect indigestion after my boiled eggs and buttered toast. Mum phoned to cancel my visit as she was going back to bed and then I got an invitation to a friend's house for coffee and cake so I did that instead.
Today I'll be pottering around the house mainly and attempting a bit of drawing. Have a good day all.

Good morning - also running late.

Mattie I am appalled at your lack of support. I hope they get their act together soon.

Ash so sorry you had one of those days. I know too the shock of needing an op hasn’t helped. I hope you have a better day today.

GG how worrying for you. Why are men so stubborn.
I tend to make the appointments without telling my DH so he feels he has to go.

Coffee in town this morning then belated NWR afternoon tea this afternoon. I am taking a new potential member I met at Tai Chi which is always nice.

Wishing everyone a trouble free and healthy day.

Good morning Mick and everyone from grey cool Carlisle.
I got out in the garden yesterday afternoon and planted 2 small rose bushes. One, a dark red one, has a divine, 'proper' rose smell. The garden is now being haunted by young blackbirds, scratching up the bark mulch, pooping in the bird bath the sparrows enjoy and encouraged by me feeding them over-ripe nectarines which they love. Come late summer they will all have disappeared, sadly.
Today, a little housework before I have to go into town to see the podiatrist. I suspect only surgery would sort my crooked toe so it's going to be just a case of dealing with the soreness it causes. I'll do a charity shop visit while I'm there having steeled myself to cull a few things from my wardrobe.

You're sounding positive Scentia, hope all continues so.
Some of you need a better day so here's wishing you all one!

Good morning from a sunny NW Kent. Off to art group, we seem to have lost quite a few members since lockdown. I must try and do a bit of cleaning later.
Good wishes to all

Morning all from a blustery, cloudy S Hants. Phone duty today along with washing, looks like that will have to be dried indoors, drizzle forecast, again.
Lots of downs with a few ups on here today, hope your Thursday improves if it’s been a down ??.

Good morning from an overcast but mild NE.
SIL was here for most of the day yesterday, we treated ourselves to some lovely fruit tarts to have with our coffee. We watched two Lucy Worsley programmes about the black death and the witches of North Berwick, she really does make history interesting.
DD was still in Helsinki where they are two hours ahead of us and she was at a work's dinner so no Skype last night.
DS coming today and possible that we will visit Ushaw college, last outing in his present car. On Saturday he collects the one he bought last weekend.
Thinking of you all.

I’ve just had 2 boiled Burford Browns with hot buttered crumpets for my breakfast which always puts me in mind of someone.

? to you lovely if you are reading! x

Good morning Mick and all. It’s sunny in my corner of Lancashire but rain forecast for this afternoon, currently 16°C.

I slept much better last night, so well that I’m still sat up in bed! My mug of tea is finished so I must get a move on and get showered. I’ll be back to catch up later.

I hope everyone has a good day today whatever you’re doing.

Good morning Mick and all from a now cloudy northwest coast.
Dropping off jumble yesterday, I popped my purse on the roof of the car whilst rummaging in the boot and arriving home, a post office van drew up and called out. I thought it was a delivery, but he had followed me home with my purse left on the top! I was so grateful.
TV a mess, not recording, losing connection and now I have lost On Demand.
Having a quiet day as a busy few days looming up, but my gammy shoulder is easing up as have been using the other arm.
My DGD took photos here for her course and posted them on Insta, very arty, but dark and give the impression I live in incredible gloom and sadness. When I post on social media, I like to put up a good front, so she has been a bit too truthful for me lol.
Thoughts to GM, what a business and ashcombe, I hate all these worries.
