Good morning, Michael and all GNs. The sun is struggling this morning. I do hope you get your phone fixed today, Mick! Yesterday I went out and bought two new photo frames, and some large plant pots to accommodate the tomato plants I’m growing. I also bought a new swimsuit which I found quite by chance, so it’s back to trawling up and down the local pool soon! Some laundry to do today and I also have an ironing mountain to tackle. Perhaps I’ll meet kittylester at the top?!
GS has sent a text to ask if he can phone me to “discuss his history homework”. Presumably this is another period in history where he thinks I am so old that I was actually there!
Have the best day you can folks!

Good morning Michael and everyone. I hope you get your phone sorted out quickly Mick,it makes life so difficult without one. Mine needs to be checked as it’s developed an inability to not buzz every time I get any sort of message. I suspect that I need to update it, it’s an iPhone6 after all, but I resent the the need for regular updates. I probably shouldn’t have gone with Apple originally but I don’t know if I’m too old to get used to a different system.

I’m going to guess that it’s a beautiful day here as I haven’t fully opened the shutter yet, the forecast is good with the temperature cooling to about 30°. Yesterday there were incredibly strong gusts of wind, some of the washing was dry on the line before I’d hung the rest out.
Now back to catch up with you all.smile

Good morning all from cloudy South Lanarkshire.

I’m feeling a little low as I didn’t have a good night again so I’ll just send my good wishes to everyone. ?

Good morning to all from yet another grey skies morning in Galsgow where rumour has it a very refained group of ladies will be meeting up today. So sorry I will miss this one with a great bunch of lovely Gnetters as they share each other’s company. Have a super time all.

Sorry to hear you are feeling low this morning Baubles. Lack of sleep is the worst when you are already feeling under par.
Sending you a shed load of love and strength to help you through a tough day.

We are plodding on here at Kalu Hall, one foot in front of the other but golly I do feel tired. Anyhoo, onwards and sideways, nothing else for it.

Shared love and bon courage to all battling through each day and to all, enjoy any pleasure which comes your way. ?

Good morning from West Sussex where we are packing up the campervan for a minibreak in Essex. Planning to explore Constable haywain country and maybe Beth Chatto garden. I just have to finish a batch of strawberry jam - should be ready for jarring up now.

Hope things improve for you today Baubles and for you and your DH Grandmattie. Kalu you are bound to be tired with all you are going through but hope you can both enjoy having your family with you.

Good morning Mick and all. It’s cloudy in my corner of Lancashire, currently 14°C.

Hope you get your phone sorted today Mick and your journey is trouble free.

It’s good to see Matt is back now his decorating duties are done Urms grin

Your painting commission sounds lovely Bluesapphire, so many happy memories.

GrandMattie and Baubles flowers

I slept much better last night after taking stomach meds at bedtime. No nausea or pains and no horrible dream either.

I hope our Glesca Grans have a lovely meet up today.

A warm welcome to any new posters I may have missed.

My thoughts are with those going through difficult times, I hope today is a good one for us all ?.

Good morning all from grey Dublin
We are all packed ready to go to the airport this afternoon to fly to Gatwick. It’s been a bit if a whistle stop tour - my 2nd time in the city but first time for my sister who is with us. It’s a lovely lively city with plenty to do.
Haven’t had time to read many posts, hopefully on the flight will have a chance to catch up. Also hope when we get to my sisters house her internet will be working. It’s years since I last had so little access!
Have the best day possible folks

I'm in my way to Glasgow. I caught an earlier bus and watched the annual taxi outing. I hope no-one needs a taxi in Edinburgh today as it's the day that taxi drivers take disabled children to the seaside.
I wish the weather was cooperating.

Good morning all from a sunny but blustery Suffolk coast.
We are taking little pooch to the forest today - yesterday she swam too much in the sea and was limping a bit last evening. Seems ok today but a gentle walk rather than a chasing and swimming type of day.

Have a great meetup Glasgow grans.
Yes GG we must make a date.

Wishing you all a lovely day ?

Grannyme6 Tue 14-Jun-22 10:51:13

Morning everyone, late to post here but didn’t feel great when I woke up at 7. Feel a bit better now. I’d be pleased to join an Essex meet-up if it works out with dates - hope that’s ok?!
Wishing all some joy in their day.

Good morning Mick and all from a now cloudy northwest coast.
Got lost yesterday on a visit to an elderly conductor I have worked with over the years. Set the satnag at home but it wasn’t talking to me, started rerouting, then nothing. So I was late driving about guessing and finally a ten year old put me straight. Arrived rather fraught, but nice to see a couple of old singing colleagues too. Took a wrong turning coming home as well and saw bits of the countryside I hadn’t intended to…
Hate driving. Sad to see old conductor friend waiting for carers and much diminished. He put a ready made cottage pie in the oven as we left.
Off to sing this afternoon but not feeling enthusiastic and putting stuff together for Ibiza on Friday.
Thoughts to all with worries, will read through later.
