Good Morning Thursday 5th December 2024

Morning from a damp S Hants, we’ve had rain. A very Happy Birthday Pantglas 🎂🥂🥳 and welcome home.
Busy, busy gMattie I hope you have at least one gentler day looming.
Cards written and stamped yesterday, other domestic chores completed. We met a friend for a drink down the road, the pub was selling a lager very cheap prior to a new brand coming in £2 a pint! Today I’ve my stretch and balance class first thing and ear clear out this afternoon.

Good morning from Shropshire where we have had heavy rain overnight but it is dry now.

We didn’t get to Chirk as DH didn’t wake up until midday but then full of energy cleaned behind the fridge, freezer and washing machine.What a revelation😱

Today DD1 and I are going to visit mum and take her out for afternoon tea.Hoping she will be happy to come with us as yesterday she didn’t want to leave the home to go to the drs.

Safe onward journey Pantglas and happy birthday🥳🍾🥂

Have the best day you can everyone🦩

Good morning Michael and all GNs from a still dark South Yorkshire where it looks rather damp at the moment. If it’s still wet at nine I might think twice about walking today. Had a really nice lunch yesterday with five of my neighbours at the same pub as we went to last year. I dozed off watching tv at seven o’clock and missed a phone call from a friend. By the time I woke up it was too late to return it! I shall have to catch up with her today.
Have the best day you can folks.

Good morning all, that’s me lost my post🤬🤬 I’m up and well again it’s very dark and wet here on the east coast of Fife.
Family and friends have been very busy.

Keep well and safe my friends

Morning Mick, morning All. Our corner of Somerset looks damp, don’t think it’s actually raining although there are local river flood warnings again.

Pleased with yesterdays efforts to create some order here. The cards are completed, hooray. Cooking today and some dust removal, changing our bed seems to have created a veritable storm. One of our teenagers still has given not a clue about a gift, with next week taken over by visitors it all feels uncomfortably tight.

Welcome home pantglas and happy birthday. You did well yesterday grandmattie, it does all sound tiring though as do your endeavours karmalady. Good to know yesterdays Glesca Grannies had a happy time. I’m very fond of Cirencester ladylfl, miss a wander round there.

Have the best day you can everyone.

Good morning all from a damp Glasgow, where it is 8°C.

Happy birthday Pants 🎂🎁🎈🎉 and safe journey home.

A rather tired Gran this morning after an extremely enjoyable outing with an amazing group of ladies, whom I now count as friends.
I was delighted to see Kalu managed to make it. The bonus prize, I had a chat with the DH of one of the group. His wife says that he is the twin of Mr MD..

The Duracell bunny is arriving early today. Her daddy has a worldwide conference call, but won't make it back home in time for the start of it, so is joining in here.
We shall need to be on our best behaviour!
The pancake batter is already made, I knew I wouldn't be up to it this morning.

The icing on the cake is , we also have the school run this afternoon, therefore we will be graced by a visit from my beloved Dollie. Yesterday, I picked up a Terry's Orange, hot chocolate bombe as an after school treat for her.
Her nose is a little out of joint, after having our undivided attention for seven years.

Best wishes to all. Have a pleasant day folks.

Morning all from a still dark West Oxfordshire.

OH and I had a good day in and around Cirencester yesterday. It culminated in a delicious lunch at the very same restaurant where my ‘difficult’ friend had a meltdown a few years ago!

Lots of admin type things today. Emails, ironing, telephone calls, writing Christmas cards, buying petrol - I only have 80 miles worth left in the tank! One of the numerals on my watch has sheered off so I may pop into a jewellers to see if they can fix it. I also need to sort out the remaining Christmas presents.

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning from a very wet Black Country.

Up very early for me. Mum is on my mind, she is all muddled up taking her antibiotics and ear spray for her ear infection. So I am going to have to call her 4 times a day to make sure she is taking the tablets and spraying her ear. Her hearing is much worse, so that make matters worse.

Walking group walk today, one of my favourite routes, with a coffee stop half way

Welcome back to blighty Pantglas hope you had a wonderful cruise.

So pleased your FAB cafe is helping people beat loneliness gM

Lovely photo's of the Glesca GN meet. Don't know who is who, but looks like you had a great time.

Wishing you all the best day possible.

Good morning from s somerset a bit of sun but not much, followed by rain

We have another windy rainy storm coming, I need to get to the plot, just for an hour or two, to make sure things are secure, as much as can be.

I was outside for much of yesterday, plot based, this is temporary and part of my planned preps for old age, while I can.

I was up early and have blanched parsnip cubes for the freezer and prepped all the veg for the root and lentil soup which I will definitely make today

Have a good day

Good morning from a very wet hillside in south Glos, I slept fitfully largely because of the rain beating on the window.
The dog and I will have a soggy walk first thing with my friend and her dog, definitely wellies today.
I have an appointment after lunch for my heart failure review, then art group.
Take care everyone 🌹

Good morning everyone from a rather damp Portsmouth where we are soon to breakfast and disembark but not before I celebrate my birthday with the Captains present which I shall be delighted to share with you 🥂

I’ve missed so much of your doings over the last month but did notice the lovely Glesca Grannies get-together yesterday- smashing pictures ladies!

A long chauffeured journey back to PG Towers awaits and I can’t wait to get back to my teensy kitchen and 🧑‍🍳 (every woman on board Ive said that to has backed away in horror…😱)

May you all have a good day in spite of the weather x

Good morning from Bristol. Mildish again, back to yo-yo temperatures.
I had a full on day yesterday starting with th FAB cafe hosting. Not many, and generally the usual suspects attending. One person I was particularly pleased to see is a chap whose demented wife is in a nursing home and is dreadfully lonely (and shy).
In the early afternoon, I went back to church to help with crafty things for small children (and their parents!) as a little pause during the town’s Christmas street festival. I got home in the early evening, too tired to eat, so just had a bowl of vegetable soup.
Dentist today, painful for my purse and dinner with the family. I really must find time to sew the pyjama bottoms for them on Christmas Eve.
Glad that the Glasgow meet-up went well. Trust that all have @ serene day. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
