Good morning, Michael and all GNs from a fresh, overcast South Yorkshire but still no rain. We are not forecast any today. I am going to the gym early this morning and then I am meeting DD for a walk at Longshaw in the Peak District. I haven’t been there for a long time. It used to be one of our favourite places to walk, with lovely views over the Hope Valley, and the waterfall at Padley Gorge which I expect will be just a trickle at the moment, it’s been so dry here. This afternoon will be rest and read, I think.
Have the best day you can, folks.

Morning Mick, ironing All from a brightening corner of Somerset

Hiding indoors yesterday my eyes are thankfully back to normal. I’ll no longer scare the horses when we venture out today. A trundle along the motorway and what I hope will be an enjoyable meal for Mr C later.

Have the best day you can everyone.

Good morning from a bright and sunny Torbay.

My condolences to Liberty. 💐

My mother loved Turkish Delight, Pantglas. It used to come in wooden boxes like Camembert often does nowadays. As a child I tried it once and thought it was disgusting!

I think you deserve the Bank Holiday to recharge your batteries, Bellasnana. I’m sure your DD could manage her errands with the boys in tow, just as you do sometimes.

I’ve been asked to play the piano for the 9.30 service today. Our regular musician prefers playing the organ but the small congregation find it overpowering at times.

A blessed Sunday to all and a happy Fathers' Day. 🦩💐✝️🥰🦩

Good morning from a grey Bristol. The temperatures are starting to climb at last.
I was invited to lunch at DD’s to see DS. It was so good to see him. He seems well. We didn’t get much of a chance to talk as we had lunch immediately, as the family went to celebrate SiL’s bil birthday, DS wanted to see th3 rugby in a pub.
During lunch, my dry funny DGD decided to speak only using one syllable. Words were seriously contracted or cut off. We were in stitches.
Iris is mobile, using crutches indoors, wheelchair the rest of the time. Minor keyhole operation on the right knee, a plate inserted at the top end of the left knee, so a more serious operation. She’s very pragmatic about it all, less her. She has a lot of pain still but is only on OTC painkillers.
Nothing happening today, just church in the morning.
Have a blessed Sunday. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning from Malta where another sunny day is forecast with a high of 38°C.

Welcome home Pantglas, it’s always good to get back to your own bed. 🛌

I did very little yesterday, a bit of laundry and cleaning before putting my feet up to watch Trooping of the Colour which I always like to see.

I actually went to lie on the bed in the afternoon as I felt so worn out. Dozed off for a while, what a waste of a day.

Today I’m meeting a friend for coffee at 9am, then I’m joining the family for Father’s Day lunch at the same restaurant we went to for Mother’s Day.

I don’t really enjoy eating lunch, especially in this heat, but it was kind of them to ask me so I didn’t like to say no.

I am, however, going to say no to DD3 as I think I deserve a day off tomorrow since she’s got a day off from school.

Hope you all have a good Sunday.☀️

Bore Da Mick and all who follow from PG Towers where it’s light, dry and delightful to be home 🤗 enjoying a proper chamberpot 😉 before my walk for a newspaper.

A busy morning catching up with laundry before trotting to see my Dad with a card and some posh Turkish Delight 😋 he’s a war child when sweets were rationed and has more than made up for it since!

Will pop in and read the latest this afternoon - a peaceful Sunday for you all 🙏
