Good morning from a dry , still and bright Co Armagh
I’m on my second cuppa! The first was a disaster, thick foamy tea anyone ?
Milk is thrown down the sink and black red bush is being enjoyed
Mick I am trying to lose weight , I hope you are too , if not consult your GP
Glad you had a good appointment yesterday Marydoll
I hope your SF is feeling better soon Urms

Pleased that your GP appointment was a success Marydoll

Happy Birthday Shazza 🎂🎉🍾

Wyllow3 a new era for you 😘

Fingers crossed for your Step Father Urmstongran I hope the blood transfusion has helped him 🤞🏻

Breezy and grey here as Gingster and Sar53 have posted.

A quick dash to local butchers and greengrocers then I shall snuggle down with my kindle.

Thankyou for your lovely birthday wishes you really are all fab xx

happy birthday Shazza the photos have brightened up a dreary looking day in the wilds of East London!
So pleased that you saw a wonderful GP Marydoll I too had a very good experience with a trainee GP back in June when I was very unwell . She organised ECG , bloods and CXR immediately . Just glad that there is a generation of up and coming new docs wanting to be a GP.
Today I hope DS will complete the paint removal of the folding doors he is renovating. He isn’t the tidiest of workers and the smell of paint stripper is not nice. Twin GD may come with him today unless there’s a better offer as DiL has a day out with her sister.
I miss little ones toddling in excited at playing with Grandma ! These two although pleased to see me soon migrate to their phones after they have raided the fridge …
Decorations all packed away ready for DS to put in the loft again .

Many happy returns of the day Shazza! And those photos are stunning!

Good morning from a very wet West York's,nothing planned for today.
Happy birthday Shazza🎂🍷hope you have a lovely day.*Marydoll*good to hear you had a productive consultation sometimes it is a new eye that's needed.
Urms hope your Sf is feeling the transfusion has done it's job.
Willow you can now get on with the rest of your life with less stress.

Good morning to you all from a wet & windy N.,Cambs.,

Mick, is it just the little weight you gained whilst on holiday just before Christmas that you are losing? Do take care.
Although I am still trying to lose some of my excess, (certainly gained a little this past month).
I'm more than half way through a "pre-diabetic-prevention-course, on line" Doing OK, but "could do better"!

Pleased that you had a better outcome at your surgery, Marydoll, if only it could always be so. I hope you are feeling easier now.

Sorry you've had to postpone your holiday, Urms.,, I hope your DSF is getting the help & treatment he needs.

annsixty, best wishes to you & your DGD.

Congratulations Granyfaraway on the birth of your new DGS, exciting times ahead.

Happy Birthday, Shazza, looks like you are having a great holiday, lovely photos.
So young, at 60, (makes me feel really ancient, )

Good morning everyone from a very wet and windy Northampton; shan't be going out today! Have only just got up as I slept in, and haven't read any of this long thread yet.

A pleasant day yesterday with neighbours here for coffee in the morning then in the evening a visit to our newest neighbours for mulled wine. There is still a lot to be done to their house after its years of neglect by a previous owner, let us just say it is a work in progress.... But it was an evening of good company with all neighbours in our little close gathered together.

My plans today are to finish getting the decorations and tree down and packed away. I always leave it till the last minute as I love having them up, and it will look so bare afterwards! Oh, and I've got a large curry to put in the slow cooker, think I'd better do that first.

Wishing all a pleasant weekend.

A very late good morning to you all. I attach photos of yesterday's rise of the full moon that kept me awake until after 3.30am and meant I slept in until after 9.30. Six hours' sleep though - can't be bad!
Today is DD's 49th birthday! I remember so well that day in Malta when she was born and her soon-to-be older brothers racing round everywhere shouting "we're going to get a baby today". Those two are now 54 and 55 - where does the time go? Anyway she's spending the weekend bagging some more Wainwrights in the Lake District with New Man. I am so happy that those two have found each other - her late husband's cancer was diagnosed when their babies (now 17 and 19) were just four months and two years, so really this is the first carefree time she has had for a very long time.
I'm sorry I haven't read any of your posts yet - that's a treat for later - but it really is time I got this show on the road and achieve something on this wet and dismal day. I hope all your days are brighter than this one and that you find your sunshine, in whatever form it appears 🌞

Good morning everyone. It’s cloudy and mild here in Lancashire. I am unable to read all your posts just now, will catch up later.

Happy Birthday Shazza

Good morning Mick and all from Sunnyside northwest Lancashire coast. So nice, I feel I should take a walk in the dunes, but I need to clear away Christmas stuff and generally tidy up.
Nice first of the year art session yesterday with lots of coffee and people’s thoughts on Harry, oops Harold…
Then run through new songs with guitarist in the afternoon, arranging suitable keys etc.
Hope you soon get back to your regular routine Mick and glad to hear your improvements day by day Ashcombe
Card making.

A late good morning to you all. I’ve only skimmed the posts, I’m afraid, but did read yours mick and hope you’ll mention your weight loss to your GP, and saw yours MD - glad you have at long last been able to see a GP with some common sense.

It was raining heavily here this morning but has now brightened up a bit, so hope it stays that way.

Kind thoughts to all if you feeling unwell or with worries.

Of, not if.

Love your self-portrait Holly 😉
