Good morning from Malta where it’s another beautiful day with a high of 24°C forecast.

Yesterday was so warm I went and did a bit of shopping and took myself for a coffee after having my nails done.

In the afternoon I had a surprise visit from DD3 and the boys who were on good form. They really do breathe life into me, such a dear little pair.

I hadn’t heard the news from FGT either but am so very happy to hear things are looking good. 🥳

I slept rather well thanks to half a tranquilliser so ought to have some energy to clean my place today. Reading of everyone’s busyness makes me feel lazy but I can’t cope with too much going on, it gives me anxiety. We’re all different which is good.

Wishing you all a good day. ☀️

Good morning Mick and all from a snowy northwest coast.
A rather unsettled night, probably after eating too much chocolate too soon after my op’. That’ll learn me as they say…

Dsister left yesterday for London after a nice stay and thankfully didn’t have snow. Heated throw and tv for me after that.
Hopefully to music club today. Good to hear FGTs news, I hope Mizunas trip up here is working out and thoughts to all🌺

Good morning from a cold and windy Torbay.

I hadn't heard FGT2’s news but I’m very pleased to know it’s good.

I hope all those travelling arrived safely, especially Mizuna going to Liverpool to help her daughter.

We had a taste of being on stage last night as the previous set had been cleared and ours is about to be built. The young participants struggled to orientate themselves to know stage left and stage right because it is hard (even for some adults) to transfer entrances and exits from rehearsal room to stage.
Back to the theatre this morning to check in props from last week's play, etc.

I hope today gives you a reason to smile. 🦩🥰🦩💐🦩

Good morning, it’s damp here in south Glos, chilly too.
Yesterday I did very little, my get up and go was decidedly absent so I spent most of the day reading in front of the wood burner. I did enjoy my early dog walk, it was lovely in the sunshine with mist across the fields, but the drizzle set it mid morning and it got progressively wetter as the day went on.
I took the DGCs parcel to the post office, hopefully it’ll get delivered. It cost over £6 for registered delivery etc 🫣, my opinion of the postal service is dim.
Today I have a few bits to do craft-wise, a food shop is coming this morning and the dog has her dog walker this morning.
A pottering sort of day ahead I suspect!
I hope you have a good day 🌹

Good morning from s somerset, grim and wet today

A drive for me today, to collect some bags of horse compost, so I can boost a potato patch, ready for spring. They will stay in my car until the next sunny day. 10 bare roots arrived yesterday and they have spent the night in my car, I am going to have to go to the plot to get them into the ground and I will have claggy mud weighing me down, I am not looking forward to that but I have to do it

I really must get on with some cleaning at home, I think I will tackle just one room this afternoon. Knitting too as I am trying to get a lovely warm hat finished for a relative by next week. Fine wool and 000s of stitches. The hat is doubled and then folded again for cosy ears. Like a long tube

Have a good day

Good morning from a damp Bristol. I don’t think we have had a frost - that is to come as we are experiencing our maxima now with the temperatures dropping all day.
Yesterday went ok with all the busyness, but I was very tired by the end.
I want to go shopping today to get odds and ends; I’m making the girls a “lucky dip” Advent calendar! I also need bits and bobs.
In the afternoon, I’ve got a “LaterLife” meeting.
I must be careful of energy levels as I’ve got wall-to-wall stuff on tomorrow and the rest of the week.
It was wonderful to learn of FGT2’s news 🌺🌺🌻. I hope everyone finds a nugget of good news today.
Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
