Good Morning Saturday 21st January 2023

Good morning from a dry, clear E Kent. I suspect there’s been a frost.
I was rather annoyed yesterday as I waited in most of the day for DH’s record player to be collected, but no one came. No explanation.
I received a call from a day hospital giving me an appointment for my cataract operation. It’ll be at the end of March, check for suitability on the Saturday and operation on the Sunday. I need to find me a driver.
I started a beanie for 12y.o. DGD. She sent me the pattern. Unfortunately, I shall have to start again with a finer crochet; it’ll be far too big otherwise.
I managed to get a hair appointment for a cut first thing today. I’ll probably visit my friend in the nursing home, do a bit of shopping.
I’m hoping fa debrief fromDD re. flats. I don’t want to nag, so I’ll just carry on with my life and hope she doesn’t forget…
All the best, one and all. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning Mick and all to come
Chinese New Year tomorrow- the Year of the Rabbit - perhaps there will be a Chinese feast takeaway special!!

Good morning from a chilly, but dry corner of La Sarthe.

Our new feline friend is settling in and allows us to stroke her/him now. She (we think it’s female!) is beginning to realise that the lack of welcome from our resident cat can be safely ignored as she doesn’t follow through with any physical rebuffs, just the occasional growl or hiss! Thank you for the lovely comments about her and our safe arrival here on Thursday.

I’m catching up with yesterday’s GM thread:-
I hope you soon have some satisfactory news about your vision, Susan56. I like the idea of a “threenager”! 🤣
Those are big changes for you to anticipate, grandMattie but worth it for your long term happiness, I’m sure. 🤞
I do hope things start happening soon with your roof, Whitemark - the worst kind of weather for it!
Packing is tricky in this weather, Grandmadinosaur. I packed three thick jumpers for this trip to France and my case was nearly half full!
I’m glad you have reassuring news about your DSF, Urmstongran. We did smile regarding Macron being out of the country for the strike on Thursday!
Many happy returns, Wyllow3 and I hope your journey went well. Lovely to celebrate with your family.
Taichinan your view sounds beautiful! I giggled about “autowitter”! DH knows I’m not my usual self if I don’t start the day full of inconsequential chat!!
What a stunning photograph, Baubles!
A chiropractor once told DH that we should listen to our bodies when it comes to naps, Marydoll. Wise words!

We shall stay cosily at home today, partly because a hedge trimmer is due. He was on our doorstep yesterday morning as soon as he saw we were back. Such chaps seem glad of the work.

Enjoy whatever the weekend brings, everyone! 🦩🥰❄️💐🦩
