Good Morning Saturday 8th November 2025

Good morning from Malta where the forecast predicts thundery showers and a high of 23°C. So far it is still dry outside.

I’m meeting a friend for coffee at 9am so had better prise myself from between the sheets. I find the faff of the morning ritual to get myself showered and presentable requires more of an effort these days!

Did a lot of laundry yesterday which means there is ironing to do today.

Another beautiful quilt grandMattie, you make such lovely things.

Hoping the weekend goes well for you all.☀️

Good morning, it’s a damp start here in south Glos, I’m not sure what the forecast is.
I gave art group a miss yesterday, I just couldn’t get my mojo going so did housework, changed the bed etc. At least the house is tidier and there’s just the ironing to do now.
I did do a bit of knitting while listening to podcasts, and slept well so that’s good.
There will be pheasant shooting today so an early dog walk, probably from the village I think as I get bored with the ones closer to home, not that the dogs seem to mind.
Fish and chips from the freezer for dinner, quick and easy.
Have a lovely weekend 🌹

Good morning from s somerset, bright and slightly cooler today. Should be a very nice day

That gansey has arrived, is a perfect fit and looks wonderful on ds, so much so that his OH would very much like a knit for herself. I am negotiating sizes with her for the sleeveless vest by Lone Kjeldsen. She has chosen the colour and I am just checking size with her before ordering the yarn. In the meantime I am getting a sock made each day or two. On my third pair at the moment

A day out for me today, I will be driving to Wells, to the Christmas artisan market in the Bishops palace. There will be atmosphere, music etc. It is indoors in a very historic building and I will be soaking up the ancient ambience

Have a good day

Forgot quilt photo.

Good ornimg from Bristol. After fairly heavy rain in the early evening, I think it’ll be dry today.
The water which was cut off in the early morning, due to a burst main, came back for about 20 minutes before being cut off again. It was back by the time I got home from Spanish.
I would have been ok - I have a tank for the immersion heater and could have used a bucket from that for flushing the loo. Food wise, everything was already cooked/prepared.
It just shows how unprepared we are for cuts of that sort!
The Spanish class rarely takes the route the tutor had prepared, but he’s happy to let us branch off into various tangents.
The rest of the day was quiet. I finished the baby quilt, made from the leftover block from the previous quilt.
Church coffee this morning, probably make marmalade (from a tin) this afternoon; I have nothing in stock.
May your weekend be kind. Carpe diem 🦩🦤🦩🦩🦩
