Good Morning Saturday 1st November 2025

Good morning and happy White Rabbits Day to everyone from a bright and sunny 🌞 Northampton. It is also my youngest sister's 71st birthday.

Stayed in all day yesterday, knitting and reading, but did find time to put a curry in the slow cooker. I was disappointed with it, as I hadn't made it spicy enough - I will have to add a few dried chilli flakes to it.

A busier day today; this morning a get-together of several dance groups to run through the many tap and ballet dances for our event later this month: I understand there will also be coffee and cake!

Then a late lunch/early dinner as I need to be out by 4pm to catch a bus to the rugby 🏉 stadium - we have a match at 5.30, which includes a Remembrance commemoration as it is the closest home match to 11th November. It is always a moving ceremony - a wreath is laid in memory of players who lost their lives in the two World Wars and other conflicts.

Wishing all a pleasant weekend.

Good morning all where it is a sunny start here in the Black country, very welcome after yesterday's nonstop rain.
Decided against going to the club last night weather off putting, but tonight we are over to our friends in Redditch.
grandMattie good to hear your DS is safe.
Have the best day you can everyone whatever your plans and may you all find some ☀️.

Good morning from East Lothian. Bright here with clouds scudding across the sky.

We are nearly packed up for our journey back to the south coast. I always hate leaving but we will be back in January. DD is spending the weekend on Lindisfarne with a group of university friends.

Aldom, glad to hear you’ve got the worst part of moving over with. Enjoy your breathing space.

Hopes for the best possible day for all.

Good morning all from a bright North Leicestershire.

A lovely slow start today. DH and DS1 are going to the match today. Lunch is included with their membership so I have nothing to do apart from preparing crispy wings for when they get home.

Have the best day possible everyone one.

Good morning from a damp W Kent. I have asked DH to let me have the Christmas card list and think I will make a start today. It takes me a while to do now and I can quite see why the young don’t send many or any, how would they find the time? Later I have a curry cook up to do. A walk for the newspaper and that is it.
Best wishes

Good morning from a wet and windy start to the day here on the east coast of Fife. Luckily I had a tin of quality street as I had the trick and treaters in last night. 2 wee girls came with their parents the girls had very scary masks on and I had to pretend I was frightened

Good morning from very wet South Lanarkshire.

I’ve awakened still feeling affected by the film we saw yesterday about a man with Tourette’s. The film is called I Swear, and there was actually an enormous amount of swearing. I laughed and cried throughout, sometimes at the same time. If you are able to see I recommend taking tissues.

Today our yarn group will be putting up some poppies in our town. There will be far fewer than usual as our numbers are depleted this year and we’re not able to manage the huge netting panels, especially when they’re soaked by rain.

Wishing everyone the best day possible.

Good morning from a very windy NE, so noisy had to wear earplugs to get some sleep.
I think DS and GD2 will visit today, I am looking forward to hearing about her week. On Tuesday she was at an afternoon concert and another one in the evening.
On Wednesday she was in Lincoln doing a photo shoot at Mannekin Hall.
Thursday she was on the train to London to see Hadestown with four schoolfriends, it is only two months since she was there with her sister.
Last night when I looked at Instagram she had posted photos of a Halloween party.
GD will be working in the charity shop this morning so she will probably be tired when she arrives.
Dinner will be a chicken casserole and then an evening of music.
Have a good weekend.

Good Morning from a wild and very windy Durham. No doubt it was inevitable I’d catch cold from the DD’s. Theirs turned out to be Covid, but I’ve tested negative so far - I’ve been inside for days.
Unfortunately, due to her health and dyslexia, DD2 is in a pickle with her car (Motability) so I’ve been called in to help.
Thankfully, I feel a bit better today.
I’ve kept up with GN and hope the unwell and their loved ones are improving.
MaryD a taxi driver made an illegal right turn in front of me, it’s clearly marked and then stared at me as if I had two heads when I honked a warning.
No trick or treaters here as usual, but both DGSs had a great time.

Best wishes to all. X

Michael12, good morning and everyone else!

I have today off work, but I just went in quickly to hand in my month's notice, as I've been desperate to do for the past few months.

My old Giganotosaurus of a boss was not the slightest bit happy; she was stomping and chucking royal tantrums, I told her that right from the first day I joined 3 years ago she's done nothing but treat me like filth, always shooting me down, being nasty, sarcastic, demanding, and she bows down to worshop the 2 members of staff that are useless, don't do their jobs properly, etc. she's patronizing and condescending, so I'm off.

I'll do my final shift on Monday, 1st December, then she can get on with it.

She demanded to know what I'll be doing after I quit, but I refused to tell her I'll be moving to Whitby in January and have lined up a job in a shop as a retail shop manager; it's nothing to do with her!

So just a few more days and poof! I'm so looking forward to it!

Have a great day, all of you!

Good morning and white rabbits from a wet northwest coast.
Art group yesterday then my flu jab. What I thought was my flu jab the other week was covid. So feeling slightly odd as usual after jabs, but nothing I can’t cope with. DD who leaves for the south today, carried on titivating the newly decorated bedroom. It looks frighteningly new and the other rooms shabby…
More music practice today and a tidy round. Glad to be staying in. Thoughts to all🌺
My Halloween drawing.

Good morning everyone from cloudy with sunny intervals Lancashire. I tried to post earlier but the website wasn’t loading.

MrB and I have been for our morning walk around the Dock. We were well wrapped up, the wind has dropped and we were quite warm enough. Another walk is planned for this afternoon, weather permitting.

Thinking of our poorly grans and those with troubles, as always.

Wishing you all a good day, whatever you’re doing 🦩🦩🦩
