Good morning, nice mixed weather is forthcoming today in s somerset

Driving yesterday was very enjoyable and the rest of the day was filled with knitting and pottering once I arrived back home

I have to order some specific fabric for a dgd teenager, who asked me to make the exact same top that I made for my dd, her mum. Different colour though.

Not sure today, whatever will evolve

Have a good day

Good morning from Cornwall where it's wet and windy. My granddaughter and I had the sort of busy day we love yesterday, making gingerbread shapes, banana muffins from a Gransnet recipe, a Christmas light from a cardboard tube on to which she sewed beads and then tracing and drawing. We discussed fractions, as she's puzzled about how useful they'll be later in life. 😁

Today is quiet and reflective with church at 4o'clock; it's our Christingle service.

Good morning from a calm and mild Torbay, unlike yesterday which was very breezy.

After a lively chat over coffee with my theatre friend, I took a short walk but soon found the wind made me breathless. The first photo shows the main view with the second one capturing a fishing boat moored in the bay for shelter, I imagine.

At last I've finished writing the cards but I’ve decided against putting up the tree this year as we shall be away for the main Christmas and New Year period, in France then Crewe. Being in a production this close to Christmas is a mixed blessing!

I hope you enjoy your Sunday roast, Mick; perhaps a call beforehand to check if booking is necessary might be an idea?

Every blessing for the second Sunday in Advent. 🦩🎄✝️🎄🦩

Good morning from Bristol. No idea what the weather holds today; it isn’t especially cold.
The Scouts did a roaring trade with their trees, despite nearly doing a Mary Poppins with their shelter - a boy on each corner, nearly taking off in the wind!
They came in for hot drinks and cake; I love the candour of 11 or so year-old children. It can inadvertently be very funny.
Today, church then an empty. I’m getting on well with my latest quilt. I shall have finished all the endless hand sewing by the end of the week.
I hope that today holds only pleasantness for you all. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good Morning Everyone,
A dark but dry start here in brackley this morning.
Yesterdays bus trip went OK met up with a friend in the supermarket , plans to u buying a soundbar changed have chosen a delivery option .
I did have a couple of beers locally despite toilet trips , although taking the IBS relief capsules seem better than the normal Laperamide ones , now down to 2 a day.
I may go out to a nearby bar and have a Sunday Roast as a treat but will decide later .
Take Care,
Mick
