Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 15° and blue skies abound. It's still quite breezy though. Yesterday was quiet and I didn't get up to anything of note. Today augurs to be much the same. I see a ladder in the garden so the window cleaner is due. Have a good day all.

Good Morning Monday 8th August 2022
(46 Posts)Good Morning Everyone,
Its the start of another warm day here in brackley this morning.
A quiet day and a essential shop early .
Looking like a week of warm weather for all , which can be uncomfortable at times .
Take Care,
Mick
PS my Warners trip last week , they have gone contactless on purchasing within any of there complexes
Good morning all from Glasgow where we have sunshine but not quite warm enough yet to have my kick start espresso al fresco. Not complaining though as it will allow me to tick off some outdoor chores on my list.
Best wishes for a good day to all.
Good morning Mick and everyone. Another gorgeous day in Hull.
Ashcombe enjoy your run of Allo Allo I’m sure it will be amazing.
Today I’m doing a yoga class and a gym session. It’s the only one I can do this week with being busy.
DS and GS and DD SIL and the DGDs are coming this afternoon. DH is doing a hot buffet.
Have a good day if you can and thoughts and hugs to those finding life a struggle.??
Good morning all from a sunny W Kent. Off to see friend where I used to live for a good catch up. Later I shall probably do even less and read in the garden.
Best wishes to all.
Good morning,
It’s a sunny and warm one here in South Yorkshire, with just a gentle breeze. It’s going to be hot later, I think.
A trip out to a garden centre with the coffee morning group today. I’ve warned Mr M that I’ll no doubt come home with a plant or two ?.
Hope everyone has the best day they can. Those of you sorting things out, “well done” and keep up the good work. ?
Dentist this morning and the local handyman to paint the front door and surrounding woodwork but nothing exciting on the agenda. Looks as if it will be a very hot week so an excuse for being indolent. Think I will miss the Games!
Good morning from a sunny NE.
Yesterday was a quiet day, SIL and I went for a walk and it was breezy but warm.
We cooked dinner together and then enjoyed a film on Netflix.
My sister is not happy because I told her off about travelling with covid, apparently she is visiting her doctor in Germany today and will travel in a taxi
She seems to have no concept of infection control.
Washer on and everything will go out on the line so expect to get my ironing done too.
Have a good day.
Good morning from an already hot and sunny day here in Essex by the sea.
DD2 is 43 today, I've sent flowers, I hope they look as good as the picture online.
I have some admin to do this morning together with some cleaning.
I'll go out for a walk later by the sea, hopefully there will be a bit of a breeze.
Have a great Monday everyone xx
Good morning everyone from sunny South Hants. It’s been rather manic these past few days so I haven’t had a chance to join you all.
Had a lovely time yesterday with friends that we hadn’t seen for six months. Wonderful to catch up with them ?. Otherwise it’s been visits to see GDDs etc.
We visited Lakeside Country Park on Friday (FREE!) and took our dog. Had a lovely walk in the shaded areas but I was too busy watching a goose and managed to turn my ankle and fall over! Cue massive bruise on leg (I bruise easily) and embarrassment as I struggled to get up!
Not sure what we’re doing today although MIL has a hospital scan at 18:45 today and DH is taking them both down there. MIL is sadly going downhill health-wise and sleeps a lot these days which upsets FIL as he’s terrified she’ll ‘go’ before him ?. All we can do is be there for them both and support them (and each other).
Have the best day you can everyone.
Hugs and ? for you all ?
Good morning Mick and everyone. It’s another sunny morning in this corner of Lancashire, currently 16°C.
The Met Office are predicting another spell of hot weather for us this week, though not as extreme as recently. I love the heat but poor Mr. B suffers, his fair skin burns in no time.
Happy Monday to us all ?????
SunshineSally
Sorry to hear about your fall yesterday ?there have been a few falls on GN lately
Love to your Mother and father in law.?
Good morning everyone, not read through yet but will catch up later.
I slept very well last night and feel so much better. I wish I knew why I slept so well but it could be any number of things so I shall simply accept it as the blessing it is.
It’s a grey cloudy morning ( maybe I’m genetically programmed for that!) not cold, 25°C, but the air is slightly damp. The strong winds have dropped but as we’re promised sun tomorrow they’ll probably arrive soon.
I hope you all have as good a day as possible.
Good morning from coastal West Sussex. There is not a cloud to be seen in the bluest of blue skies.
Tomorrow is F day - the new vinyl plank flooring will be laid over two days. There is still too much furniture in the living room so I think the sofas will be going out into the garden. I hope we like what we chose many months ago ?
Oopsadaisy sorry to hear of your bereavements ?
SunshineSally hope your bruising soon heals. A difficult time for your family with your MILs decline ?
Thoughts with all with health problems and worries, Marydoll, Baubles, Auntieflo (hoping your Covid is mild) ??????????
Good morning all from sunny Harrogate
Better late than never.
Haven’t managed to read your posts, depends how many more interruptions I get trying to write this post. I’d forgotten we were having a security system fitted yesterday. The bloke did not finish and is coming back this am. He’s very thorough and is sorting out our wifi problems as well.
I’ve got my Roomba vacuum back working but it kept going in the wrong direction! So I’ve vacuumed with both it and the Dyson, got a wash on and had a chat with my sister!
Now before there are more interruptions I’d better try to read the previous posts!
Have the best day possible folks
Morning all from East Northants, been out early this morning shopping before it gets too hot. Not looking forward to the next heatwave to come, will stay indoors as much as possible, no rain forecast either! I don’t post often as I lead a quiet life compared to some, but do read posts every day. One good thing is the CanadianOpen tennis will keep me occupied this week, on Amazon Prime. Hugs and best wishes to all.
Good afternoon Mick, Annie, and one and all.
I was too late (and lazy) to catch the Morning group.
After a shower and hair wash, I was washed out. Coffee and a catch up here, and felt better, so put in a big coloured wash. It will dry in no time, but my rotary line seems to be giving up gradually. A new one will be our next purchase.
DH needed a plug put on something and as my hands are more nimble than his these days I did that, and got all hot and bothered. My Covid is mild, but I do get very tired. Probably due to other things going on.
Marydoll, have you applied for a Blue Badge? It might be worth giving it a go. Mine is a blessing.
To all who have had set backs or worries, take care and be gentle with yourselves.
Have a good day one and all.
*Auntieflo, I have had a Blue Badge for about fifteeen years. It has indeed been a blessing, especially for hospital appointments. I qualified due to my COPD and RA, added to that my recent heart problems, meant it was renewed automatically the last time. I was expecting a lot of fuss!
Our local hospital is at the top of a very high hill. In fact many moons ago, I went into labour, after climbing that hill!
I hope you start to feel better soon. ?
Thank you ShazzaKanzza and Litterpicker xx
Apologies Marydoll. When you said you couldn't park near the shop, I jumped to conclusions ?, but so pleased to hear that you do indeed have a Blue Badge.
Thank you, I am getting better, but take ages to get going in the mornings. Take care of yourself in this heat and try not to do too much.
SunshineSally, here's hoping you are not too sore after your fall. Get better soon.
Auntieflo, glad to hear you are improving.
Unfortunately, the disabled bays are usually full, mainly with cars belonging to people who don't have a Blue Badge, dropping stuff off at the charity shop, so I need DH to carry the bags!
I'm actually quite pleased with my cull. 
It really annoys me, that people are so thoughtless.
