Good Morning Sunday 23rd June 2024

Good morning from a sunny W Kent. We shall try a short walk today to test our wobbly legs. Otherwise a casserole lunch and possible visit from DD2 to check up on us.
Best wishes to all

Good morning from a sunny warm Cambridgeshire. Yesterday we went sofa shopping with DD2, pottered in the garden and had a planned phone chat catch-up with two old friends. Today we have no plans except to relax and enjoy the garden.

Wishing everyone a happy day 💐

Good morning all and the weather is lovely. Not too hot , just a beautiful summers morning.

We have some family coming today , just 8 /10 of us, so we will be able to sit around the table for lunch. Much nicer than the usual ‘ melee ‘ .🤣.

The tennis at Queens has been exciting with so many up and coming brilliant players. Poor ‘old’ Andy!
Another one here avoiding the footie. Dh watches mostly every match! , but that’s ok , keeps him occupied. He pops in to watch a bit of the tennis with me and gives his advice to the players 🙄.

Enjoy this lovely sunny day and take care.🌸

Good morning everyone from Severnside. It’s overcast here.

I gave my garden chairs a coat of Shades yesterday so today I’ll carry on and do the outside dining chairs with teak oil. Also change and wash bedding.

My pond pump isn’t working properly either Roses. I cleaned the filter but I think I need to do the impeller as well. While I’m on my knees I might as well empty the pond and clean it out before refilling. I also want to revamp around it. It used to look so much better years ago.

As I was reading your home description Ash I was wondering if you could live there as it sounds so lovely.

Have a good day all and glad to hear you feel better Mick. Down days aren’t the best.

Good morning all from an already warm North Leicestershire.

Dd1 and family are coming for lunch. It's a shame I didn't know about the extreme heat when I planned chicken casserole, I foresee a quick foray to Sainsbury's for salad type stuff!

Have the best day possible everyone.

Good morning Michael and all GNs. Glad to hear you’re feeling better Mick. The sun is breaking through light cloud here in South Yorkshire and it’s going to be another warm one. I had an impromptu invitation to join a few of my neighbours in one of their gardens for a drink last night. It was very pleasant sitting outside and chatting. DD, SiL and GS are coming for curry later today. I made a chicken curry yesterday but will make a vegetarian one today for DD. Brownies and ice cream will have to do for pudding.
Have the best day you can, folks.

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 12° and the sun is peeping out from behind clouds. Mick I'm glad you are better. Yesterday I got all the housework done and did a food shop at Aldi. In the afternoon I visited mum who was chatty but her dementia was quite obvious. I don't think she knew who I was.
Today I'm having a quiet morning then heading to Stirling for a garden party in my art tutor's garden. I'm looking forward to it. Trout fillet and salad for dinner later. Have a good day.

Good morning from a cloudy hillside in south Glos, I don’t think we’re getting any sun today according to the forecast.
The pond needs sorting out today, the plants are overgrown and the pump isn’t working properly.
DH will walk the dog while I do it.
I hope you all have a peaceful day 🌹

Good morning all from the Black country.
A day of hanging around, our boiler appears to be broken have said they will send someone out between 8 & 6 so it looks like I'll start a new book.
Enjoy your day everyone whatever your plans, thoughts with missing posters ☀️

Good morning from a misty Cornwall, with the heat on the rise. My neck fan will work hard today. The National Express coach has just gone past my window on its way to London, probably laden with students as the Uni has broken up for the summer.

A day of pottering in the wood above my patio, to clear fallen twigs from the rudimentary path I've created, then this evening I'm at the cinema around the corner with my daughter-in-law and grandson to watch an animation. Last bit of socialising before I hunker down for the week.

Good morning from a beautiful sunny morning on the South Downs.

Breakfast in the garden this morning - no doubt and lunch and supper.🌞🌞🌞

Enjoying the tennis on television - I dip in and out, as I hate sitting for ages - Eastbourne next week. DH a big sports fan is in his element, in fact there isn’t enough hours in the day to watch everything he likes, and soon the olympics will be starting - I guess after Wimbledon? DS is cycling (well that was the plan last mentioned) to Paris to see the opening ceremony and some events, and then is booked to see some of the finals.

I am enjoying the peace of the garden.

Nothing planned today - we tend to leave the weekend for the workers to enjoy.

Have a beautiful day all

Peace and harmony to the world. (I suppose one day I might get my wish)

Good morning from a fine, dry Sarthe. I’m glad you’re feeling better, Mick.

Yesterday was another fine day so we had a good few hours to relax in the garden. It's so peaceful with only birdsong, which is a joy (no seagulls!) or the occasional traffic noise to interrupt the tranquility, including agricultural vehicles. The tits in the photo are regular visitors to the feeding station.

In the morning we visited a little local produce market and the nearby Intermarché where a complete refurbishment has left it well stocked and altogether more appealing. It's noticeable how much pride people have in their local amenities, particularly the upkeep of roads, verges, municipal flowerbeds, etc, even in the smallest communes. I couldn't live here all the time but I do feel we have lost our sense of community spirit in parts of the UK.

A blessed Sunday to you all. 🦩🥰🦩💐🦩

Good morning from an overcast Bristol. The rest of the day will be the same, just with higher temperatures. I doubt we’ll reach the high 20s.

Mick, I think the avoidance of football is the same for many of us.

I had a quiet day yesterday; today will be much the same - usual weekend. I’ve nearly finished the quilt I’m making, so may well sit out and do the hand sewing in the shade.

I hope everyone had a good weekend; those watching sport enjoying it; those with their making the most of it; those resting benefitting from their “piece of quiet”. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
