Good morning from Cornwall where it's raining. A day of reflection, with a Walk of Witness through the town. Loads of people from all our churches gather and walk quietly through, culminating at one of the churches for a service. I feel for you gM, missing your son.

Yesterday I pretended I was on holiday and loafed around reading, eating and doing crosswords. It was lovely. I never stay in all day and it felt indulgent.

Good morning on this very important day in the Christian calendar.
The weather has been vile; cold wet and windy. We even had a very heavy hail shower in the afternoon. More of the same today 🙁
I did little yesterday apart from my tai chi class. It was the first time I’d been for a while and was surprised when a couple of ladies told me they had missed me!
I find church services on Good Friday very difficult, as the mother of boys and, more so, since my Philip died. I might go…
May the metaphorical sun shine on you today. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good Morning Everyone,
Its just daylight but very cloudy over brackley this morning, but ground is dry .
A day in today as a limited bus service is running , expecting a parcel delivery later .
Will follow family tradition as to lunch with fish in parsley sauce with mash and peas .
Mind you otherwise I will have to alter somethings as my bank has been closed and they have removed the cashpoint machine as well , so it means if I need cash I will have to travel and go elsewhere , with banks closing it will make things harder for a generation that have grown up with banking , the kids of today the adults of tomorrow will have very few to choose from .
Take Care,
Mick
