Good morning from a grey Essex coast. Hopefully the sun will appear later.
Thank you for all my birthday wishes. I had a quiet but lovely day yesterday.
This afternoon/evening we are looking after 3 grandchildren whilst their parents go to an Indian wedding. They are wearing traditional dress.
I think it will be a very late night.
Have a great day everyone xx

Lovely June morning and am hoping it will stay fine for the church fete this afternoon when I am on duty doing teas. Lots of work goes into village events like this so I hope it is a success both socially and financially as we have a £50K problem with the church roof and anything we can raise today will help. Am having a leisurely morning in preparation.

Sar my son and DiL are attending a Malay wedding in Singapore today, and they are wearing traditional dress also.
Mattie enjoy your time in the Dales. Tidza is a good starting point!

I hope the fete goes well. Out neighbouring parish needs at least £200,000 for remedial work on the church roof.

Thank you, Marydoll. Just need the weather on our side.

Good morning from an overcast NE but is forecast to reach 20 degrees today.
Had a nice lunch out with my friend and heard about her trip to Paris with her sisters last week.
DS and GD2 will visit this afternoon but will probably go to the coast first and get some exercise.
GD1 has a summer job in a boutique hotel so will be working today.
Have a good weekend.

Morning from an overcast S Hants, sun is due soon. I hope that yesterday was just a hiccup Mick and today is fine.
Yesterday MrJ dug in a dwarf acer and I put some pinks in a trough, that’s it, no more, except repeat veg sowings.
Today is newspaper, my son and his partner are here this evening, Chinese takeaway and games.

Good morning from Durham where a warm, cloudy day is forecast.
A total change to, or I should say cancellation of plans today as DD1 is on Day2 of a migraine and DGS1 was off school yesterday as he too was unwell.
I’m sure I’ll find something to do, especially in the garden,
Mick is it possible something in you diet triggers your problem - it’s ginger snaps (which I love) that does it for me.
Safe travels to GN’s who are out and about.
Best wishes to all. X

Good morning Mick and all from Sunnyside northwest coast.
Although my back was still in spasm yesterday, I took myself off to the art group and gave some amusement as I yelped with pain on and off throughout the session. Strangely, I thought my painting was better than usual….not overthinking I suppose. Walking about, I looked exactly like Mrs Overall from Acorn Antiques so brilliantly played by Julie Walters…

To add insult to injury, I was due to have a back molar extracted in the afternoon, but as I have had no pain there for nearly two weeks, I was granted a stay of execution. My tortuous entry into the dentist’s room probably aroused some pity. The back is improving today, but has left me feeling washed out. A nice quiet day is in order.

Sorry your health still bothers you Mick and thoughts to all🌺

Call me a liar - clear blue sky over Durham. DGS2 is much better, so we are off to The Hoppings after all!

Belated good morning from a cloudy, sunny, wet W Kent. Another day of very little apart from washing and ironing to keep up If the sun comes out properly I will sit in the garden and read later. Kind friend has informed me that we have almost certainly had the new Covid which is highly infectious, I do like to be first with something grin
The family are off doing the University visits to see where the two Gds might go next year.
Hope you feel better soon Mick
Marydoll I wish I had a wand sounds like you could do with a couple of strong youngsters to sort that one out.
Best wishes to all those staying at home and those doing exciting things
