Good Morning Wednesday 11th September 2024

I've seen your lovely photos at last.
That sounds awful the weirdo
Can you get a doctor or nurse to look at you?

Perfect view of sea and beach.

My pic from this morning.

Sorry to hear that The Weirdo - I’ve had 2 falls this year, first I tripped on my clothes horse, and the second, down a flight of marble stairs, on holiday. Recovered fairly well, but has left me with a fear of stairs/escalators. I only use lifts, where possible.

mizuna I can’t see your photo or fgts. It says user post image in a little box!

Good morning from a windy yet sunny East Midlands. An afternoon of painting for me. Love to all.

good morning to all gn's from a sunny but windy north yorkshire. Am still creaking around but have been sorting some things out and am now getting ready to go swimming, which I hope will improve my mobility. It is a lot to deal with Pantglas when you move quickly isnt it? Physically you are here but it takes a while to be mentally here. HOpe all settles down well for you . Hope everyone has a good day

Oh dear, TheWeirdo!

Thanks all re the photo. I'll report my own post.

Mornin' all!

It's 12.2C. and 10:36am here in little Appleby and very windy. I love it and all the torrential rain etc. we've been having!

I fell down the stairs last night and smashed the left side of my face on the wall corner! I landed in a crumpled heap in absolute agony and screaming in pain but as I'm single and live alone there was nobody to help me up! I had one hell of a struggle but eventually managed to stand!

There's no cracks or breakages but half of the face is very badly swollen and bruised, as in the rest of my body and my teeth and gums are pounding!

I know I shouldn't have done but I took 2 Paracetamol AND 2 Nurofen and washed them down with a large glass of Glenfiddich!

Made up a hot water bottle and laid in bed shaking from top to toe and freezing cold but I think it was some sort of shock hitting me!

I had a awful night with little sleep, just wanted to drink gallons of cold water but I'm at work again this morning, slow and stiff but I'm getting there! I can't let a silly accident ruin my day!

I've now got a huge mug of hot chocolate here on my work desk and it's glorious!

I hope all of you have a brilliant day whatever you're doing!

The same here too, can't see the picture.

I’ve got a question mark inside a square box surrounded by a rectangular box.

👋morning all

No Mizuna, just a funny little icon. Same with FGT’s view from her balcony! Thought it was just me!

I can’t see it, nor can I see FGT’s.

Can anyone see this photo? I can't open FGT's and couldn't post this one earlier. I've restarted my phone and never had problems before.

Cold, windy and sunny this morning - it even smells like autumn so need to dress accordingly, which means socks for the first time for several weeks. A potter in the garden this morning and then singing this afternoon so that is today planned.

My lovely next door neighbour told me yesterday that his cancer is no longer treatable; as he is the carer for his wife with dementia he and the family are going to have to make plans for a difficult future and I am so sad for them.

Have a great Glasgow meet up - doubt the volume will be any lower just because there are fewer of you!

Wonderful news Kitty!
Sorry you're unwell Grandmabatty and having to miss the Glesga grannies meet up.

Another later good morning from a bright and sunny Northampton, although showers are forecast this afternoon. I'm afraid I put the heating on when I got up as it felt really chilly, and last.night I actually slept in my dressing gown as I was so cold!

Had a good walk with the.group again yesterday; then I walked two thirds of the way home, called into the paper shop and paid my bill, and then got the bus the rest of the way as it started.raining. Torrential rain then ensued until late evening.

Must put the hoover on charge and then take it upstairs today; the cats have been shedding all over the stairs.
Then I have to deal with the apples that I picked from my espalier the other day. Will probably lightly stew them and then freeze.

Glesca Grans, have a lovely meet-up!
And have a good day everyone else!

Morning from afresh Worthing in bright sun, we’ve just had a delicious cooked breakfast, hotel is great and 100m from the sea which was wild yesterday.
A pier walk later, then a church visit for its stained glass and frescos, the rest of the day is flexible.
I hope you feel better soon Grandmabatty.
Swimsuits and sarongs FGT 👍

Good morning from a bright cold Co Armagh, I love the bright days !
DD3 is still here , working on line , I don’t see much of her in the day , as she keeps to office hours , but the evenings are chat time , she beat me at scrabble !!
Opening session of the village club this am , lots of chat !
Enjoy the day

Good morning everyone from a gorgeously sunny Es Caña in Ibiza! Highs of 29°C for the ten days we are here. Lovely. Perfect for a ‘fly and flop’ holiday.

Not long awake was zorsted. Someone was playing loud music until 3am. Aargh! Have to see how we go tonight as there’s no one on Reception apparently on Wednesdays. Strange.

Himself has just been out for water, milk & teabags for our room. Got a mug of tea now. Always the best start to a day.

Whilst he was brewing up (I know, #lazygran) I made myself useful and took this pic from our balcony! Boy it’s scorchio already!

Well, Himself has just finished his mug of tea (I’ve hardly started mine, we are SO different in everything) and so he’s gone to buy a Panama style straw hat from the little beach kiosk downstairs. When I’ve finally drunk my tea we will go down for breakfast. How lovely, just to choose it from the menu for 9 mornings!

Here’s the pic I just took.

Crikey it’s almost 10am here - I’d best jump into my swimsuit and kaftan!

Good morning from a sunny but very windy NE.
Yesterday I hoovered upstairs and put away all the ironed laundry. The rest of the day was spent reading.
SIL sent me a photo of his new car sitting in the garage, I was concerned that a 2024 car might not fit into a 1950s garage but it did. He likes to have the car under cover while he is at his other home abroad.
Today is shopping day which should be fun in the blustery wind.
Have a good day everyone.

Good morning from a bright cold Glasgow.
I’m really looking forward to meeting all the Glasgow grans today for the first time…having lurked for so long! 😂
I’m also having an unexpected visit tonight from my eldest son ,who lives in Dubai ….going to be a lovely chatty day 🥰

Good morning from sunny Skipton where I’ve had a wonderful few days with my sisters and brothers in law. We have been lucky with the weather, the hotel and food have been excellent and we have laughed all week.

Home today so I must get ready to pack up before enjoying breakfast.

Sorry to hear quite a few can’t make today’s meet up in Glasgow but I’m sure those who get there will have a lovely time, I’m really disappointed that I can’t be there, roll on next time.

Have a good day everyone, I hope we can all enjoy this lovely autumnal day.
