Good Morning Saturday 25th October 2025

UTBB oh dear. I better see the doctor then.

A quick morning all from West Oxfordshire where it feels a bit chilly.

We are taking our granddaughter to see The Wizard of Oz later and maybe a snack lunch.

Have a good day, whatever you’re doing.

Good morning everyone from Inverness where it’s just getting light and looks dry
So sorry to hear about your DHs setback dragonfly , hope things improve soon
After a busy day week with visitors and being out and about I’m hoping for a more restful weekend and catching up on quite a few jobs.
Thank you for the lovely picture Vix
Thinking of everyone with worries and struggles, hope today is gentle and take care all whatever the day brings 💐

Good morning all.
I read although not posting but just wanted to tell Grandmabatty that my friend did a similar thing with her leg and ended up having being referred to the Orthopaedic dept,the lump was called Morel Lavellee.
She is waiting for a scan.
Please see your GP.

Good morning, very pink here! Had a lovely facial yesterday so will have a lovely shower this morning with my new posh shower gel. Then I will attempt to get the million things done which I should... have a lovely day everyone!

Good morning from a dry W Kent.
Whatever was said about ending posts seems to have passed me by but gM .
dragonfly so sorry to read your news
Trip out this morning to by a Cook curry, I have just discovered that a curry paste I have used for some years is not gluten free, so a rethink required.
Otherwise I need to get some washing going. Quiet afternoon so might watch a film
Best wishes to you all

Good morning everyone from mid Essex. It’s getting light, dry and 10 degrees outside. Not sure what today’s forecast is.

I think it’s time to change to the 10.5 tog duvet, so will do that today. DD2 and family are out today and DD1 is busy taking the granddaughters to various classes, so I won’t see anyone. Half term next week, I am looking after DD1’s dog one day,not sure which day yet.

Clocks go back tonight, so lighter mornings for a few weeks, but I’m not looking forward to it getting dark earlier.

Best wishes to those who are poorly or anxious. I hope today is better for you.

Enjoy Saturday if you can!

oh dear, I have found that carpe diem post and am in that same category of wishing everyone a good day. I do wish everyone a good day, every day.

So I repeat, have a good day and I hope misery guts has a good day too. I wish you well and hope you can see joy in life

What a sour note you have injected.
I am not a “miseryguts* and should have thought it obvious that it was meant as a lighthearted observation - and not on this thread BTW so certainly not aimed at anybody in particular unlike the miseryguts barb.
I have much joy in my life, albeit on a nippy morning, newly serviced CH and a new thermostat fitted on Thursday at no cost playing their part, along with a warm furry back snuggled up beside me.
I was prepared to don my sackcloth and ashes but nothing energises quite a gratuitous attack, so I shall wrap up warm in one of my new Seasalt sweaters, purchased with my WFA (thank you, Rachel from Accounts) but probably have a little flounce too as the GM thread has been quite spoiled for me.

karma, who exactly is 'misery guts'?

Good morning, just lost my post !
Wishing all a good day.
Yes Grandmattie Carpe Diem

Dragonfly thinking of you

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 5° but feels much colder. GrandMattie I'm quite sure RosieandherMaw didn't mean a personal attack on your lovely way of signing off. There were not many who agreed with it
anyway. Please don't stop. It's part of you.
Karma a safe journey to you. Ashcombe are you heading back homeward? Susan I hope the visit is better than you fear. ❤️
Yesterday was a quiet day again. I got all of the washing done and tidied up. I even started on the dining room by throwing out a dead plant. I decided to have a takeaway curry from my favourite place for dinner. It was delicious. I no longer have the same capacity, so there's enough for tonight and also some to freeze. I had various deliveries which I had forgotten about - stuff for the boys.
Today I'll go to Aldi for food. I'll get the whites washed and the rest of the housework done too.
A few weeks ago, when I was going to Edinburgh, my foot slipped getting on the train and my leg went down between the train and the platform. I felt very foolish and didn't say much about it as it bruised and I thought nothing more about it. Except it isn't getting better. There's a lump across my shinbone. It isn't exactly painful but I can feel it, if that makes sense? So I think I'll have to see about it next week. Oh dear, I loathe going to the doctor's.
Enough of my moans! Carpe diem and have a good day.

GM 🥰

Good morning from a cloudy East Midlands.

DH was taken back into ICU yesterday with various complications so I am quite worried. I do have my lovely son here though which is a joy.

I love your cheery messages GrandMattie so I am pleased you are carrying on.
As usual wishing everyone the best day possible.

After such kind and welcome comments, thank you and here goes!

Hooray! Your daily sign off is always a reminder to me to try and make the best of the day no matter how I am feeling.

Never post on this thread, but often read - no-one should be telling others what to say, surely - these posts are so individual, and written from the heart.

Nobody has told anyone what they can and cannot post.

Stand tall my dear

Good morning from a dark and windy NE.
DD and SIL will be here shortly as we are driving to Yorkshire for my cousin's funeral.
Have a good weekend.

Good Morning from Durham. It’s still dark, but the sky is clear with many stars visible.
DGS2 is coming this afternoon, as his Daddy is at football and Mummy is too ill to look after him. Covid has absolutely floored her. I’ll play it by ear, but he could sleepover, if he wants to. First, off to Tesco to top up with his favourites.
Ignore the critics gM

Best wishes to all. X

Good morning everyone from Cambridgeshire. It looks to be a chilly day with a mixture of weather here.

Yesterday I met a friend of some 50 years for lunch in a little country pub. It was very busy and noisy. No music but happy people chatting. After eating we crept to a quiet corner in front of a cosy fire. Is it just me but I find it difficult to hear and communicate in noisy places. Lovely to see places buzzing and busy again though 😂

Today I need to go along to the carpet shop and choose the new carpet for our bedroom. DH has a bowls lesson so I will try and bring samples back home. The bedroom is almost finished just the door to have a second coat.

Continue signing off GM in your normal way and enjoy your lunch with your DD 🦩

*FGT’s ❤️

Wishing everyone the best day good health and happiness to all

Well said, Karmalady
