Good Morning Thursday 4th May 2023

Good morning everyone, and happy Star Wars Day! May the Fourth be with you!

Bright and sunny here in Northampton, but looks windy. Off to the hairdressers this morning, and then if the timing is right, dance class after lunch.

Yesterday I attended the.funeral of an elderly.friend's husband; so glad I went along to support her and her son. The.service was simple and beautiful and very moving. I was moved to tears by the huge spray of red roses on the coffin, as it was very similar to those I chose.for my darling late DH. A lovely array of refreshments was offered at the nearby church hall.

Afterwards my friend decided that she wanted to attend our usual Wednesday well-being cafe, not wanting to go back home, so we spent a couple of hours with a cup of tea and cake in good company.

Spent the rest of the afternoon cutting the back grass, which was exhausting, then had to wash up before I could get my dinner. Just.flopped after that!

Wishing a pleasant day to all.

Good Morning Mick and everyone from sunny Carlisle where we have a chilly NE wind though.
I too saw Brackley on Location, Location last night but it didn't click that it was your Brackley, Mick. It's an interesting and pretty little place.

I drove round to the new health centre yesterday for my blood test so fingers crossed that my iron levels are still normal and my booked bloodletting will be cancelled again.

Today the ironing beckons and then a gentle day of pottering at this and that.
We aren't having council elections here. The county has been re-organised from 6 LAs to 2 and we elected all the new councillors last year. Result- the LA covering the north and west is Labour and that for the south and east, Lib Dem. No comment here!

What a relief for you, Gingster, I hope your DD is soon fighting fit.

Enjoy organising your possessions in your new home grandMattie, I wish you happiness and contentment there.

Have the best possible day everyone.

Good morning all from Stockport.
Just had to post after reading the wonderful news from Gingster.
I can guess at the happiness and relief of you all.
Grandmattie greetings and best wishes to you in your new home.
It is something I wish I had done when my H died just 4 years ago.
I procrastinated and then suddenly it was too late with family dynamics changing.
Have the best day you can everyone.

Good morning from a grey NE, ah well never mind, yesterday was a pleasant day.
Happy Star wars day.
SIL was in his element as my neighbour was working on his MG yesterday, they had discussions about replacement parts and owner's club.
DD is arriving from Dublin this afternoon, she will be in need of a rest after giving presentations to 2,500 at a conference.
Great news Gingster.
Good journey Ashcombe, hope your DH's cough improves.
I voted by post so no trip out for me.
I am expecting paperwork from the solicitor, great timing if it happens then DD can sign the POA ones before she leaves the UK again.

Good morning everyone from sunny Lancashire.

Yesterday’s hospital appointment went well. The Botox has done the job and both eyes are working together again. No more double vision either.

Today I need to go and vote, then collect my prescription meds.

Glad to hear you’re feeling better Mick and what wonderful news Gingster.

Have a good day 🌻😎

Fantastic news, Gingster.
Off to get hair cut now, May go much shorter 🤔.
Have a good day everyone.
