Good Morning Saturday 22nd February 2025

I know Bellasnana I have been on Gransnet for six years. I had just returned from Prague on a trip with my friend, now sadly deceased and visited dd in hospital because she has been induced. She didn't think she was in labour and was fairly despondent but I knew better! I was sure I would have some news before long and so it proved

Good morning all. I see the weather app has decked us out here with pictures of ☀️ - what a lovely change! 7°-10° isn't bad either.
Happy 6th Birthday to your DGS1 Grandmabatty. I just bet he's excited! It's such a lovely enthusiastic age isn't it.
Nothing of interest to report from here. I have gone from a hectic social life to a very quiet period, as always seems to be the case. I enjoy both though, so not complaining!
Lovely gardener and his grandson will be here soon. I think their main task today is repairing some trellising which is heavy with clematis. I hope it doesn't mean too much pruning back of the clematis because it is so glorious when it is flowering.
The snowdrops seem to be covering a greater area this year, but only a few daffodils have flower buds showing so far. My photo memories have come up to show me that on 17th February a couple of years ago some of them were flowering! But again, in other years we had snow on that date. Funny old world.
Anyway, have a lovely day everyone, doing what you enjoy most x

Good morning from s somerset, soggy and sunny today

Up late today and I slept well. I will take today as it comes and hope to include some tidying. It rained all night so everywhere is soggy. I will try and catch up on loose ends such as filling and finishing ballast bags for the plot, to hold covers down

I have been watching `the Indian doctor` on prime, second time around and am loving it. That area was my old stomping ground for my adult years, we used to go cycling, riding and walking there and shopping in Llantrisant. Nostalgic for me

Have a good day

Good morning all. A respite from heavy rain, we have sunshine this morning in Glasgow for today at least. High winds will continue.

Another one tidying the linen cupboard yesterday, more bags for charity to add to the pile of bags in the garage. Charity shop visit on Monday means a ✔️ on my to do list. With better weather I can spend some time in the garden and a walk at some point.

Happy birthday to your DGD Bella. Also go to your DGS Grandmabatty The years seem to fly by don’t they? My own DGDs will be 16 and 20 this year!

Hoping a pleasant day is ahead for all.

Good morning from N Bucks where the weather forecast promises a sunny and breezy day. Can’t wait!
Thoroughly depressed to find that I have regained nearly all the weight I managed to shed between August and Christmas.
I suppose I had got careless and will have to take myself in hand if I am ever going to wear the summer clothes I have bagged up and put in the loft. No more hiding under voluminous jumpers and ponchos.
Six Nations Rugby this afternoon should take care of some of the day as long as I can resist snacking in front of the tv. Knitting might keep my hands occupied.
Glad to have a quiet weekend as the next two weeks I am going to be busy every day culminating in a combined (5) birthday lunch for around 20 on the 9th. Not that hard but I have 5 GC plus one D staying the night before - what could possibly go wrong?
Wishing you all a pleasant Saturday and happy weekend.

Good morning from Shropshire where the sun is shining.

We are back home from a relaxing week at DD’s where we were pet sitting.Laundry today and then repacking the case.We have a busy week ahead and then DD’s have booked a surprise few days away with all the family to celebrate my 65th birthday next Sunday.

Happy birthday to Arabella and Grandmabatty’s DGS1.

It was DGS1’s seventh birthday while they were in Spain.I thought the hotel had made him a birthday cake but DD had taken her cake tins and made his cake!

Grandmabatty I am so pleased the gaurdianship is finally through.Its been a long road for you.

Wishing you all a good day🦩

Good morning everyone from a bright and sunny 🌞 Northampton, a nice change after yesterday's wet and windy day.
Slept till gone 8.30 this morning, so am late again!

A bus trip later to the shops for a few things, then home to watch the rugby and see our Saints boys in action

Have a pleasant Saturday everyone.

Good morning Gransnetters from a mild Berkshire where I am staying with DD until Tuesday.
We had a good drive down from the northwest although the motorway was busy and it was heavy rain for most of the journey. Quiet night in las night.

Today to a NT properly new to me and my Sister will come over from London later for a meal. I have some books I have read to pass over to her.

Sorry to hear Iris needs more surgery GM and greetings to all the birthday DGC

I can hardly believe your eldest grandson is six years old today Grandmabatty! Time flies when you’re having fun. 😁

You must miss your teenage granddaughter over in Florida Bellasnana. So many early years memories. At least you might get A FaceTime call today?

And madeleine I’m sure I’m not the only one curious as to where you found your glasses yesterday Especially as you had looked ‘everywhere’ twice! Where were they hiding? 😂

Good morning from a dryish and dull Oxfordshire.

Baby sitting at the moment whilst her mum and MzOops are doing something energetic in the sitting room, not sure/what it’s called, but the baby is quite happy ‘chatting’ to her toy parrot.

They will all go out later and we will have a quiet day, until they return!

Have a good day everyone.

Much milder and sunny so windows are open to give the house a thorough airing. No plans though I may walk up to the village for a paper but otherwise paper, book and television will fill the day. Am much enjoying the reports from travellers near and far and hope that plans all come to pass without drama.

Good morning from a grey but warm midlands. Two granddaughters staying tonight. Carrot and coriander soup with french stick for tea with some homemade chocolate crunch. An afternoon of wool stash sorting. Have the best you can. 🤗
