Good Morning Tuesday 14th June 2022

Good morning all from East Yorkshire where it is a bit overcast at the moment.

It’s my coffee morning today and GS here later.

Wishing the Grans meeting up a good time today. Wish I was there myself!

Thinking of Kalu Granmarie baublesGM* and sorry if I’ve missed anyone with illness and worry ?
Take care everyone.

Here’s Matt.

Good morning everyone from south Manchester where we have glorious sunshine already! Lovely. I need a few items from John Lewis & M+S so we will walk to the Trafford Centre later and then get the bus home. I will call in the square below for a coffee to go first.

I hope all the grans meeting up in Glasgow this afternoon have a wonderful catch up! We await feedback & photos please.
?

Enjoy Tuesday all who can. x

Good morning from a sunny Torbay.

This morning I have four prospective new members to show round our theatre, two of whom offer box office skills which would be most welcome! After that, I’ll join the Props team, by which time it will be time for coffee, I hope!

Thinking of all with worries of any kind especially if it’s the health of a loved one. ?????

Good morning all from the Black country nice start to the day again.
Mick I do hope you can get your phone working soon.
I have a mammogram booked very early this morning ,a member from the breast clinic rang last week to see if I would take part in a study which I have agreed to.
Not sure of plans for rest of the day see what DH would like to do.
Glasgow grans enjoy your meet up, safe travels for those on the move, best wishes to anyone celebrating and virtual hugs where needed.
Enjoy your day and may you all find some ?.

Morning all from West Oxfordshire. As usual I have no idea what the weather is like as I haven’t peeked through the curtains yet! Younger son is arriving sometime today to stay for a few days. We haven’t seen him since Easter. OH has a face to face GP’s appointment this afternoon. He is quite concerned about his health as apart from restless legs syndrome he is worried he might have Lymes disease. At some point today I will be collecting some new bedding which I ordered from John Lewis yesterday and returning a dress. ??? to many of you.

Good morning from a sunny Leamington.
I will be leaving here later for my long journey home. I love seeing my girls and their very busy lives.
Yesterday DD1 and I went to the Cotswolds village of Broadway. A very pretty village with lots of small independent shops.
We had a lovely lunch and bought a few things.
Enjoy your meet up the Glasgow grans and much love to everyone today xxx

Good morning from an overcast NE where the heating is on so must be cool.
Busy day yesterday, did the washing and got it all dried in the garden, got everything ironed too.
A quiet day to myself today, just as well as I am in a lot of pain in my hands and shoulders.
Have an enjoyable meet up.

Good morning everyone from Leicester. DH has gone off on a long bike ride and I’m intending to have a long morning out with the dog, while the builders next door demolish the conservatory! Then I’m meeting up with a friend for a birthday coffee (her birthday).

Thinking of all who are having such a tough time at the moment.
Take care ?

Good morning from a dullish Leicestershire.

Up early as the cleaning fairies are coming - one of them is going to clean my windows! Also a man is coming to replace the motor on the reclining chair - it has never been right.
Later coffee with friends in town.

Sending love to all who need it.

Good morning everyone from a very bright and sunny ? Northampton. Am up early this morning to be sure the DGDs are up and ready for school, and just grabbing a cup of tea before they appear, but I can hear movement already. It was lovely to have them yeaterday, they were good company., And they.enjoyed the chocolate brownies I'd made for them!
Once they'd.gone to bed, it was comforting to know there was someone else in the house.

A bit of pottering this morning, then a health walk after lunch.

I did something out of the ordinary and spur of the moment last week! I commissioned a painting! I follow my original hometown page on Facebook, and an artist who posts there regularly posted a painting of a village church that he'd just done as a commission. So I asked if he'd do a painting of my father's village church, where he was a chorister and bell-ringer about 100 years ago. I spent a lot of time in the.village in my childhood and the place.holds many happy memories. The churchyard is the resting place of many family members, including DF and DM. The artist agreed and I am now eager to see.what he does.

Hope you get your phone fixed, Mick. Wishes to all for a good day.

Good morning all from a cloudy Glasgow.

Good luck with all the medical appointments. I misssed my dental appointment yesterday to have my new crown fitted. On my return from a small shop, I received an email informing me that I hadn't turned up. I phoned immediately to get a very frosty response, despite my grovelling apology to the receptionist.
I have no excuse, apart from the fact I am feeling overwhelmed by life at the moment.

I am looking forward to the Glesca Grannies meet up, but several trains have been cancelled already, so fingers crossed for a hassle free journey. I shall miss our dear friends, who have had to cancel, we will raise a cup to them.
I did consider driving to the Subway, but DH thinks it will be too busy and therefore risky. Three elderly people I know have been diagnosed with Covid in the last week and are quite unwell, so I must continue to be cautious.

I wish you all a pleasant day and hope those with sorrow in their lives and hearts have a gentle day.

A lovely sunny good morning to you all from Severnside.

I love Broadway Sar. I’ve never been up to the towers though.

Despite saying I’d resist buying anything at the garden centre yesterday I couldn’t help myself. I came away with a few plants and herbs and some clothing items. The assistant asked me if I wanted the hangers and I said ‘No thank you, I have plenty of hangers. I just need some clothes to go on them.’ She said she’d have to remember that one! There was lots of nice things to look at. Later I had a lovely time with my brother and had a first holiday photo from Beechnutella of her and her fella enjoying a drink at the airport as they left for their holiday.

Today I’ll do some homeworking then hopefully pot up my container with the new succulents.

Have a good day everyone ???

Morning all

It’s another sunny day here in S E Essex, we have The Imp so energy is needed.

Enjoy your meet-up Glasgow Grans

We must try and sort out a date for Essex Grans meet-up.

Keep safe and well folks ??‍♀️

Good morning everyone from Inverness where it’s grey and cloudy
What a lovely idea about the painting bluesapphire I hope it’s just perfect for you
I’m sorry to be missing the Glasgow grans meet up today but we’ve tickets to attend the recording of Antiques Roadshow at Brodie Castle so we’re off out there today. Have a lovely get together ladies and hopefully see you next time
Thinking of everyone with worries and struggles, hope today is gentle and take care all whatever the day brings ?

Good morning from a bright, sunny E Kent.
Not had a chance to read the posts yet, only just got up after a disturbed night,
Had a good morning yesterday. Novella alert…
I had an appointment with the audiology department at 1345. I left a little early to get petrol, grabbing my letter on my way out. I was a bit disconcerted when noticing that it was for Thursday 13/6…. Probably an administrative error. I drove 30 minutes to get there, still puzzled about the “Thursday”. Just before getting out of the car, I checked the letter again. It was for Thursday 13/6/2019. Yes, 2019!,! ?. I immediately called DS who told his dad what a prat I am. Cue the two chaps laughing like drains.
Got home. Back to sq. 1. DH being sick, etc. finally called the district nurse for another injection. He’s lovely that one and checked through the amount of drugs DH is getting and has sorted out an increase for today. Unfortunately, my stock of drugs has run dry, and I have no way of getting more until tomorrow at the earliest, I think. I have emailed the hospice team and hope they can help.
Carpe diem. ????

Oh, all the best for your meet up in Glasgow.

Good Morning Mick and everyone from Hull. It’s dull but can see blue through the clouds.
Hoping you get the phone sorted soon Mick.
Thoughts to grandMattie and Grannmarie for their poorly DHs

Today I’m visiting my uncle in Bridlington and taking his shopping and picking Mum up from her caravan and bringing her home. She’s enjoyed two weeks there.
Hoping the Glasgow grans enjoy a fun meet up and cuppa together and hope journeys to and from there are trouble free. ?

Enjoy your day and virtual hugs for those with illness and worries. ??

Good morning all from a really sunny bit of North Leicestershire.

I have Mount Everest to tackle today and then a visit to the egg farm, via the post box, is necessary.

Have the best day possible everyone.

Has anyone warned Glasgow?

Good morning from sunny Colchester. Another hot, dry day here.
I will be spending it volunteering in the charity shop. I shall make full use of the air conditioning and often wonder how they can afford to run it. It'd be too warm to work there without it though.
I haven't read the other posts yet but send love to all and hope there are loads of shenanigans in Galsgow. ?X

I think Galsgow is a brilliant typo!!!!!

Has anyone warned Glasgow?
How dare you, Kitty! We are a very refined bunch.
However, we have have been advised that Glasgow City Council Environmental Dept. will be on hand to measure the decibels, as some noise nuisance has been predicted.

I think Galsgow is a brilliant typo!!!!!

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 11° and grey. Marydoll and the other Glasgow Grans, have a lovely blether today. I'm unable to join you as I'm working. Brook are you taking something with you to be valued? It sounds fun.
Yesterday I made apricot jam as I spotted them in Aldi. It took my mind off my aches and pains. Then I popped up to a neighbour with a jar as it's her favourite. We had a blether about the moves happening in the street. My old neighbour opposite has had to go into a nursing home and her house has been sold in three days! Lots of offers apparently. A house in a nearby street sold in a weekend! A very popular area and style of house for both.
Today I'm doing a role play at an interview for a head teacher. I've done them for years but I've decided that this will be the last. I'm four years retired and my knowledge isn't as current as it was and I'm not enjoying tas I used to. Anyway, a chicken curry is in the fridge for dinner. Have a good day all.

Good morning from sunnyN. Bucks.
Really enjoyed the Downton film yesterday. Only 9 of us in the cinema.

This morning I have DGS1, so swings , singing and playing.
This afternoon I am going to a garden not far away. It is a private garden but opens up on Tuesdays and a few other days. Will hopefully do some sketching and have tea and cake.

Wishing all a good day especially those with worries and problems that need sorting.
