Good Morning Sunday 14th May 2023

Happy birthday Marydoll! Have a love day! Been out to my vestibular Physiotherapy session this morning. Only just sat down. DH insisted on visiting The Range to buy bird stuff. I put on the petted lip and complained that I hadn’t got a present but to no avail! At least the weather has improved today - it’s lovely and sunny .
Have a good Sunday all!

Happy Birthday Marydoll and Creativity 🌹🌹

A belated Good Morning. MrB and I have had a long lie-in and are heading off for brunch on the marina. It’s a warm dry day but a lot more cloud about.

I will catch up on your news later, have a Happy Sunday all 🌻

Happy Birthday, Marydoll and Creativeness 🎂🎂

Happy Birthday Mary doll. Have a lovely day. 💐

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders.
I woke to a Happy Mother's day message from my NZ family.
A lovely surprise.
I took my French guests/helpers to the seaside yesterday evening where we walked along the beach. They were impressed by the number of mad swimmers in the North Sea. It doesn't get dark here until about 9.30pm.
Today I have sent them into the Borders to perhaps see Abbotsford and Daywick.
I feel like a tour guide.
"My" potters are coming here this afternoon for an outdoor firing. We are praying to the weather gods as I have no outdoor shelter.
Happy birthday to Marydoll and to Creativity
I have just remembered my nephew's bd was yesterday! 😢 it was a big one too

Enjoy your outings and celebrations everyone.

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Good morning Mick and all from Sunnyside northwest coast. I have been able to name it Sunnyside for a few days now, perfect weather.
I watched the Eurovision right through for the very first time. Might not bother again😁but pleased for the city of Liverpool.

DD was really pleased and surprised by the return of a favourite lightweight black jacket left on the Orient Express, my fault as I had it over my arm leaving the train. I left my nice Powder beige trilby style hat on the train, but I think it’s a bit late for that now…
Feel like doing nowt, but might have a walk in the sand dunes at the end of the road, so lucky to have this vast expanse on my doorstep.

Pretty roundabout Ashcombe, glad you seem to be settling in GM and welcome with birthday greetings to creativeness

Baubles 💐. Get well soon. And 💐 to your daughter in law Shazza.

A late good morning from yet another dull Suffolk day. Our DS was born 43 years ago today in the early hours. We were living in London at the time and the 13th had been a boiling hot day. I remember my DH in a tee shirt in the delivery room in the early hours of the morning.

14th May was a TUC day of action and there were no buses or tubes and taxis were like gold dust. DH decided to walk from Stoke Newington to UCH to visit us and arrived delighted to see us both but full of chatter about the demonstrations etc he had seen on the way.

A day to remember in more ways than one.

DS and ‘tribe’ are arriving in just over an hour so had better get dressed and busy.

Hope those with birthdays have a lovely day and all find something pleasurable to do.

Ginny what lovely little garments. My family treasure the tiny green hat worn by my, now fourteen year old, grandson when he was a very poorly newborn in Special Care.
Thank you for caring.

Happy Birthday creativeness 🍸🎉🎂

Happy birthdayy and welcome to * creativeness*.

Baubles get well soon. 💐

Good Morning Mick and everyone from a rather grey morning.
We are up late due to watching all of Eurovision and thought Sweden was a very worthy winner.

We have just returned from a couple of days in Leeds. We saw Andre Rieu at the Leeds Arena and wow it was spectacular. We stayed at the Marriott Hotel, did some shopping and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
DH needs to cut the grass today so hoping it stays dry.
My poor son in China has covid again he only had it at Christmas. They are hoping DIL doesn’t go into labour while he’s positive as he won’t be able to accompany her so hopefully a few days will see it gone. 🤞

Hoping Mick enjoys his trip away today.

Happy Birthday to Marydoll enjoy your day and your visit from your little ladies🎂💐
Happy birthday also to creativeness it’s good to hear from you💐

Grandmabatty wow to be able to speak languages like that. Could I be more in awe of you. Hope you are feeling better in yourself. 💐
Ash love the photo of the roundabout.

Wishing everyone a lovely Sunday. Enjoy family and friend visits and delicious Sunday lunches. 🌻🌻

Good morning Mick, morning all from bright South Lanarkshire.

Happy birthday to Marydoll and also to creativeness, welcome to the thread.

Sorry you had a bad day yesterday multi, I didn’t realise your sister lives with you now, I’m sure she is a comfort to you most days.

The cough and headache I awoke with yesterday turned out to be Covid so my plans were scuppered and I spent the day resting on the sofa. I feel worse today so it’ll be another day of doing nothing.

Have the best day possible everyone.

I’m in Middlesex near to Uxbridge/Ruislip am hoping that there are meet up not to far away from the area etc

Good morning, it’s a bit damp but the garden seems to appreciate the moisture,!
A Very Happy Birthday to Marydoll , enjoy the lovely cake 🎂
And a very Happy Birthday to Creativeness 🥳

Happy birthday Marydoll and Creativeness hope you both have a lovely day. It like we are going to have another sunny day. I have covi d jab later we are taking neighbours he is unable to drive following a stroke. Hope sun comes out for everyone.

And Happy Birthday to you creativeness. Where are you?

and many happy returns to you &creativeness*

Good morning Mick and everyone from sunny Carlisle.
I hope you enjoy what sounds like a lovely day out Mick.

Yesterday, I took my car down to the tyre fitters where the two front tyres were replaced. They automatically checked the alignment and found the wheel opposite to the flat tyre was unadvisably out of alignment, unrelated to what caused the flat and reckoned to be probably due to potholes which have multiplied round here over winter. So that had to be fixed too and I finally ended up with a rather large bill. They were a friendly and helpful outfit though who readily answered this ignoramus's questions.
Fortunately for me, Dunelm and Lidl were literally two minutes walk away so I entertained myself in them for an hour and managed to get the supplies I hadn't dared to drive round to Sainsbury's for earlier.
The weather was really warm. I actually was able to sit out in the garden at 7pm with a restorative glass of Rioja. Perfect!

Today, some minor tidying up then gardening. My recently germinated beans are rocketing up but I'm still suspicious of frost so they will stay in their pots for now.

A very happy birthday to you Marydoll, it sounds as though you will have a lovely day with the family visiting...and cake too!

Wishing you all a pleasant day.

Have a wonderful day Marydoll. Happy birthday!

Happy Birthday Marydoll 🎂🌞🎁

Happy Mothers Day to all those celebrating today. Mostly Aussies and Americans, not sure about Europe ? We have had a lovely family luncheon with 4 generations of us, so lovely to catch up.

Good morning everyone from a dry but dull N. Bucks.
I think we’ll visit the local garden centre for offer and buy some annuals. Hopefully get them planted this afternoon.
After the two DGSs had gone yesterday I put my feet up and finished off the two sets of prem. baby garments. Part of our WI knitting for charity.
Happy Birthday Marydoll andCreativeness .
Mick enjoy your outing.
Happy travels and holidays and a good day wished for all.
