Good Morning Friday 16th January 2026

I very rarely post but, like many others, I read Mick’s thread every day. I completely agree with your very wise words Karmalady and I, too, was upset by some of the ill thought out and divisive comments. Respect and love to all with hurt feelings.

Good morning everyone from sunny Lancashire.

MrB and I have done a little shopping this morning then had a lovely walk around the park. Lots of birdlife on the pond. The council rather grandly refer to it as ‘the lake’ .

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

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

Beautiful photo Blossoming - it captures the light and winter colours so well.

Karma the last time I renewed my passport I just used a photo taken at home. This is acceptable so long as you strictly follow the rules set out. Of course, you need someone to take the photos.

I did a “selfie”: against my dining room wall
Easy enough - and it worked!

I totally agree with you Moth62, I don’t post much but read everyday and think it would be a shame if they didn’t post as I enjoy reading what they are up to x

Glad to hear from you, GM!
