Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 13° and looks dry.
Yesterday I managed to do a bit more, apart from the ironing. In the morning I visited dd and the boys for a coffee. They were on good form. Dgs2 is always pleased to see me and gets louder and louder with excitement. Dgs1 is happy to see me but then does his own thing. I cleaned the bathroom and the kitchen and hoovered throughout. In the afternoon Tesco delivered. The driver was really interesting. He gave recipe tips and told me about his previous life as a roadie for Manic Street Preachers. I had steak and chips for dinner as a treat with fried onions (I can still smell them this morning) . Ds flew to Munich for a law conference. He kept us updated with photos and said that taking off at Edinburgh was hairy because of the wind. He arrived safely and the last photo was of a glass of German beer.
Today is early childcare day. I'll head to dds in a bit. I'll do an hour in the school library once I've dropped off the boys. Then home to take money out for the hedge removal and do the ironing. Later I'll pick up the boys again and deposit dgs1 at his football training. Dd will collect dgs2 later. Dinner might be spaghetti carbonara. Have a good day all.

Good morning from Turkey. We leave here early evening and should be home around midnight.
DH is unwell with a probable chest infection and has pulled a muscle from coughing so much.
I will be glad when we are home.
Thinking of MD today.
Best wishes to all xx

Good morning from a dry, clear Bristol.
Like you, Mick, I’m doing household things today. I have already done two loads of washing which I’ll hang out as soon as I’m dressed.
I didn’t have a good day yesterday as I felt rotten after my vaccinations - sorry to have disappointed you for it showing you my upper arm (singular)!
In the afternoon, after having dozed and sat, I went back to church and undid my arrangement, chopped up the vegetables for piccalilli and salted them, ready for today.
Not much happening today, other than making the piccalilli.
I hope this week is kind to you all. My prayers for today’s appointment, MD. 💐*fgts*.
Carpe diem 🌷🦩🦩🦩❤️
