Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. Sunny start.
A walk with the U3A group today and picnic in the leader's garden.
Yesterday's garden party was lovely. My friends have such interesting friends and their garden is magical.
The film last night was All of us Strangers very sad but well acted.

You have recovered well Ash enjoy your class and DH return.

I've been on trains like that Latedecember. One of the worst Newark to Edinburgh, Christmas time. When I finally found a seat I had to remove someone's giant case from the footwell and sit with it crammed against my leg clutching my own bag.

I'm glad you enjoyed the garden show!

Hoping everyone has a good day.

Good morning from dry and bright South Lanarkshire.

We are home from our four day childminding stint. I can’t believe how tired I was given that the children were absolutely no trouble at all. The youngest was up being sick during Friday night it was as right as rain afterwards, strange. The older ones really looked after themselves and helped with the younger two as well as the dogs, it was really good to be able to spend time with them.

Love the quilt gM. Enjoy your day off Bellasnana, it’s not easy to say no, well done.

I’ve a couple of parcels to collect today and laundry to catch up with.

Greyduster what a great shot of those beautiful creatures.

Wishing everyone the best day possible.

I woke early as have the last couple of mornings. I lost my dear brother on Saturday just made it to the hospital to say my goodbyes. It doesn’t matter how old we are the loss is always felt and I no longer have my big brother. Hope you are all in good health enjoy today and do what makes you happy this Monday.

Morning, it was sunny earlier, now cloud cover has moved in. Your husband is doing really well Gingster 👍
Enjoy your well deserved day off Bellas.
We had a delicious lunch at our friends yesterday, roast beef followed by cheesecake, the weather was just right to sit out afterwards.
Today is the usual voluntary phone, some houseworky bits and checking the tyre pressures on my car, it threw a warning yesterday. Quiz tonight which is always a really sociable evening.

Good morning everyone from sunny Lancashire.

Yesterday we had our usual walk down to the Dock gates. It was very warm in the sun with a rather cool breeze. No rain forecast for today so we will probably do the same again. The pollen forecast is high so must remember to take a hay fever pill.

No appointments in the diary for this week, I need to reorder one of my meds. I use the calendars on my iPad and iPhone to keep track of everything. I also need to make an appointment with the optician, I think my glasses are ready for updating as I am struggling with small print and screens.

As always, my thoughts are with those dealing with illness and troubles, I hope the day brings you some comfort and relief.

Have the best day you can, happy Monday🌹

Morning all. Had a lovely day watching a sailing event involving GCs at Brightlingsea. A picturesque spot, one of many on the Essex coast. It happened to coincide with ‘Brightlingsea’s Blessing and Reclaiming of the Waters’, an annual event, so there was plenty going on.
Back to reality today with a class at

A good day yesterday culminating in supper with a friend as I had a duck crown in the freezer which needed eating; so long since I cooked a proper meal and I was relieved to find I could still do it. Nothing much planned for today apart from the gardener who only needs encouragement as he is excellent and I am lucky to have him. We are promised hot dry weather this week so watering will undoubtedly feature.

Good morning Mick and all from Sunnyside sandhills northwest coast.
Out yesterday to big garden fete not far away. Hard to park, so busy. Very enjoyable with lots for children to do. They were so excited by a simple thing like a woman creating masses of bubbles with long ropes. I sat and watched them running about trying to catch them. Then inside the hall, I listened to two talks on local history. I do wish people would speak up though. I know I have tinnitus, but I’m sure other people were finding it hard to hear…

I should tackle a painting I started a few days ago. It’s promised to my son, but I keep deflecting it with other things, like singing practice.
GM I saw a quilt online like your coloured quilts and it was very expensive!
Thinking of the FGTs and all🌺

Good morning all,
I’ve only flicked through the posts and will read thoroughly when I’m back home as I have to go somewhere soon.
I think your day out sounds wonderful latedecember1963. I watched it on GW on Friday and it looked very good. I like Adam Frost, and he’s had a good background training with Geoff Hamilton, hasn’t he?
Another lovely quilt GrandMattie and a superb photo Greyduster.
Wishing you all a good day.
