I have caught up with yestrday's and today's posts and wanted to send my very best wishes to Meg, what a time you have had of it. I hope things start to improve for you.

Granmarie, the candles are very much appreciated!

I noticed a few new faces, so welcome.
DH came back from the golf early due to the torrential rain, but only after I had to leave my sick bed to rescue the washing he had put out!
That was the end of my peaceful empty! 😡

Good morning,

It’s brightening up here, but the ground is still damp. We had a deluge yesterday afternoon, but luckily it stopped when it was time for us to leave the garden centre where we’d gone for some lunch. We decided to wander around the centre after lunch until the rain eased off which meant, of course, that we didn’t come away empty handed 😂.

Need to go fridge hunting, as ours is playing up - it puts itself into vacation mode, which means it switches itself off, which of course is not good.

I hope you like your new car, greyduster. I find it takes a while to get used to where everything is, especially if it’s a different make.

Best wishes to all with troubles.

Hi all. There are some wonderful grans on here! I am in awe! Its Halloween and there have been some strange and awful films on TV in the last day or two. "Witches" was funny but Betelgeuse was just plain nasty. As for "It" I thought it was just sick making.... Have a good day everyone and special thoughts to all who are ill or upset, xxx

Janiepops Mon 31-Oct-22 11:54:20

Morning everyone. I read you all everyday but rarely post. However, didn’t know where to put this idea, so hoping this will be ok…..
Instead of putting my small parasol away this year, I plonked it over my washing line! Obviously it’s square and rotary line is triangular, but it works a treat! Tested several times this last two weeks, washing dry! I’m waiting delivery of larger one now, to cover the corners!!

Grandmachrisy47 Mon 31-Oct-22 11:30:34

Morning all. Thanks for the welcome last week. It’s bright and chilly here in the NE. I’m still getting to know you all. Love reading the posts and hope to interact more in the future. Off on an emergency shopping trip now to look for face paints for dgd. Her mum forgot about hallowe’en! Thinking of all those with difficulties today.

Grannmarie Mon 31-Oct-22 11:25:36

Good morning Mick and All, from a cloudy North Lanarkshire. I'm hoping it will brighten up because the washing has just finished. Not much outside drying these days, back to the clothes horse although I am thinking of buying a dehumidifier with laundry mode.

I'm just having a cup of tea and some tangerines, catching up with all your news. I'm not long home from church, where I lit candles and said a wee prayer for all GNs who need/wish one, especially Ash, Marydoll,the DDs and the wee babies. 💕🙏
Thanks for the update, Grandmattie!

So, a day of washing, ironing, housework ...haud me back!
.. and maybe making a pot of pea and ham soup, split peas because the lentils have gone AWOL from Lidl.🤣

Have the best day possible, take care.

Megs36 Mon 31-Oct-22 11:20:47

Good morning all, thanks for goodwishes and all the best to everyone with worries and sadness. xxxx

hollysteers I adore hares, what a beautiful sketch 👏

dustyangel Mon 31-Oct-22 10:39:19

Good morning everyone from a dank and cloudy bit of the Algarve. Really surprising after last night’s beautiful sunset. I’d been planning to put a load of washing out early but having seen the weather this morning I decided to put it off until tomorrow.

DH is a good ironer when necessary, he puts it down to having been in the RN. It could be because I never learned. to iron his trousers properly. Though now he’s mostly in shorts or jeans and I often leave the few bits that need doing to our occasional cleaner.

The physio comes today but not a lot else planned at the moment.

Grandmadinosaur Mon 31-Oct-22 10:22:04

Thank you Brook yes I am giving it a lot of thought. I definitely want to say no but I feel guilty about it.
It will be a half day once a week. Yes she said she is flexible about it and says she will fit in with me. DH says he will do it but that defeats the object I feel.

Good morning from a sunny West Sussex. I have some bulbs to plant so must get them in before the promised storm arrives later. I had my Covid booster yesterday morning and was shivery and achey by the evening. Much better this morning. I have now completed the trilogy of flu, shingles and Covid vaccinations so hoping for a healthy winter!
Georgesgran your daughter’s wound sounds awful - such a worry. I hope it heals soon.
GrannySomerset how lovely to start the day watching the cattle from your window 🙂
It’s good to hear from Marydoll - I hope some of the research you are contributing to will benefit you as well as others.
Hope all goes well for Ash.
