Good Morning Monday 15th April 2024

Good morning from my hotel bed in a very windy, wet Cornwall. It was so odd having a day of doing nothing yesterday and strange not being out on my patio now. Watched clouds flying past and the sunset from my room, which I can't do at home due to all the trees around my flat. Today I'll have a big English breakfast and then battle the weather to the bus stop to catch the Newquay bus, then home later.

Happy birthday grandMattie. 🎂

Good morning from a wet and windy Crewe where we've spent the weekend with DD, DSiL, DGS2 and DGD.

On Saturday evening we had a wonderful time watching DGD dance with English Youth Ballet in The Sleeping Beauty. Thank you for the kind comments on Friday. There were lots of proud parents and grandparents, etc in the audience at The Regent in Hanley, besides other supporters, including dance teachers. DGD didn’t disappoint and found it hard to wind down afterwards. Yesterday we enjoyed a relaxing family time and are travelling home today.

Happy birthday, grandMattie; I’m glad the spectacles were found!
Good luck at the dentist, Bellasnana. A long procedure, I believe.
I'm with you on preferring small portions, Pantglas. Have a lovely time!
Good luck with your long day, Grandmabatty.

Have a good week, everyone! 🦩🥰🦩💐🦩

Good morning from a windy Down South.
Assumed we had finished with the wind for a while.

Having a new electrical delivered today.
After having had to replace car.
Dont want a 3rd expensive thing to go wrong, thank you very much.

Good morning from a wet and windy South Downs.

Yesterday we had a stroll along Goring seafront, which being Sunday was busy with everyone enjoying the sun. We took a flask and sandwiches. After we drove up the A24 and then to my daughters for a cup of tea a chat and listening to one of our grandsons and his post university new job. That involves (at the moment) work on RAF fighter planes (he is training at the moment) “I can’t tell you much really Gran, as it is top secret”😄.
Later returned home and son phoned for his usual hour long chat. They had spent a few days in the New Forest. Still very wet everywhere.

Today I’m going to change the winter duvet for the summer one - so be sure it will now get colder!

Later we are off to the cinema - Olivia Colman and Timothy Spall in “Wicked Little Letters”

Enjoy your windy day all

Many Haps GM 🎂🥂

Peace and harmony to our world (it doesn’t seem to be working at the moment😢)

Morning all from West Oxfordshire.
Happy birthday GM🎂
The decorators should be here by 8 am so I’ll be up earlier than usual.
After lunch I’m driving up to Kew where I’ll stay overnight at my son’s. In the morning I’ll take granddaughter to school and then drive home! Elder son has an army week away (he’s a reservist in the Intelligence Corp) and his partner works early and late hours teaching fitness.
Have a good day.

Good morning all from a blustery and rainy North Leicestershire.

Luckily, I have no need to go out. I have a zoom Carer's course this morning and an afternoon of cooking. DH is off to the gym and then doing a bit of shopping.

Have the best day possible, everyone.

Good morning from Malta where it is overcast at present but warm.

Happy birthday to you GM, so glad you had a lovely day yesterday and hope today will be a happy one.🎂🥳

Just arrived at DD3’s to find both boys up and playing with their new work bench which was a birthday gift from another set of twins! Lots of little wooden tools and bits and pieces to keep track of and prevent the dog from chewing!

This afternoon I have round 2 of my root treatment at the dentist to look forward to. Another hour and a half with my mouth wide open. Actually, the bit I really dislike is the numbness caused by the injection. It took five hours to wear off last time.☹️

Wishing you all a good day.☀️

Happy birthday Grandmattie, I hope you have a lovely day 💐🎂

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 4° and wet. I think we are to have showers all day. GrandMattie a very happy birthday to you! Pantglas enjoy the sunshine.
Yesterday dd came round with the boys for a while. I got an especially long hug from dgs2 who I hadn't seen since before his holiday. Later I visited mum who was able to chat for a wee while.
Today is early childcare day. It'll be a bit longer on a Monday from now on because dgs1 starts football training today. He has new football boots and a tracksuit all ready. His dad will take him and DD will pick up dgs2 on her way home. I expect I'll be ready for bed by then! Have a good day all

Happy Birthday grandMattie 🎂🎉🥂

Morning all, it’s 7 and windy here in S E Essex another night when sleep has eluded me.

The builders should be here to start at 8 am, I will tootle down to the gym. Looking forward to a tea and natter afterwards. A wander into butchers and then pick up another prescription!

Have a good day 🙋‍♀️

Buen dia from 🇪🇸 and as promised 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞 here we are, oodles of sunshine for all those in need- if you could just send 🌧️🌧️🌧️ back between the hours 1-5 am, that’d be lovely 😂

Arrived safe, sound and straight to bed Saturday after meeting friends at the airport and a busy day getting mi Casa sorted with outdoor seating etc ready for some 🍹 🍹later this week🥳

Glad to see Miss Marydoll and Mizuna getting out and about and that Lemon delight made my mouth water Bonnybanko 😋

A major food restock is necessary today although we do eat out a lot more over here as it’s so cheap and different- I never tire of tapas and they don’t over face me like larger portions seem to these days!

Have a lovely Monday everyone x

Good morning from s somerset. Raining for a while and strong winds all day

Pottering again today and I will be putting my baby plants back into my mini glass greenhouse as soon as it is light. In and out with them at the moment. Bumblebees had a frantic day yesterday, there is so much fruit blossom and the gooseberries have already set fruit. It is if the season is moving forward fast right now. My old farmer friend used to say that the seasons always caught up with themselves

Crafting group later, then back to peace and quiet in my home

Have a good day

Good morning from a windy Bristol. We are promised a one degree increase in temperature today, from 9 to 10!
I am 76 today and had a lovely party yesterday; DGD and I are “twins”. The in-laws had been for a previous party on Friday, so we were just us, which was lovely.
I was delighted to be given a whole set of tools as I have none, and Iris insisted on giving me a souvenir of a blue “evil eye” magnet for my fridge.
On my way to the house, I realised that I had mislaid my “light glasses” and had the ignominy of wearing dark glasses all day. The congregation must have thought I had a hangover 😵. Chance would be a fine thing! During this time,I’m checked my phone and a resident posted that a pair of glasses had been found on the lawn, mine! They must have fallen out of my pocket as I rushed for the bus…
Today, apart from supermarket and WI, I’ve invite a neighbour to dinner, she doesn’t know it’s my birthday - I don’t like a fuss.
I hope you all have a peaceful week. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning, it was dry here two hours ago but I haven’t looked outside again so might well be wet by now. The forecast is heavy rain 🙄
Yesterday was cooler than Saturday but still pleasant. DD and DH walked the dogs, we enjoyed a roast dinner and then they spent most of the afternoon cleaning her car.
Today DD is going home after lunch, it’s been lovely having her.
I am going to sort out all my needlework bits today, I need to get it all in one place rather than scattered around various cupboards. Most of it I was given by various people and I will probably give much of it away I think.
Hope today goes well for you all 🌹
