Good morning everyone from sunny Lancashire.

It feels warmer out. MrB and I have been for an enjoyable walk around the Dock, as usual! Not much going on apart from the coastguard helicopter passing over. We spent some time birdwatching, the great crested grebe (now christened Grebo) is still here, I guess he must like it.

Happy Anniversary to you both Cornergran.

Have a lovely birthday Jaxjacky.

As always, thinking of those with troubles in their lives.

Wishing you a good day wherever you’re doing.

Good morning from rainy South Lanarkshire. Online mass this morning at 11 o’clock, I’ve excused myself the twenty five minute walk in the rain now I am ancient.

Happy anniversary to the cornergrans and birthday wishes to Jaxjacky, you’ve been through such a time, I hope you have a lovely day. Good wishes to everyone celebrating today.

I’ll be joining in this afternoon when I’m joining DD1 and DGDs 1 and 2 for an afternoon tea in the Willow Tea Rooms to join in part of DGD2’s 21st birthday celebrations. She doesn’t want a big party like her sister did last year so is just having some pals up at the farmhouse next weekend when it’s the actual date. It’ll be really nice to have the afternoon with them, I’m touched that she wanted this.

Grammaretto, what a shame that you haven’t felt well for your family visit, you’ve done so well to make the journey, it really is Sod’s Law isn’t it? I hope the journey home is okay.

Hope veryone has the best day possible, of course thinking of those carrying an extra heavy burden x

Good morning from a bright northwest coast after a night of vivid dreams. Just another quiet day yesterday, making cards from my paintings and reading. Same today.

Flying DD was due to fly to Dubai today, but…She’s disappointed as she will probably be on standby when she won’t know what’s going to happen. I have an embargo on the news for myself, too depressing/worrying.

White rabbits and birthday greetings to jaxjacky Mr.WS and happy anniversary to the cornergrans🌺

Reading about Wells has reminded me that my grandmother was a maid in service to the Dean of Wells during the 1880s. She often spoke about her time there, especially having to be present for daily household prayers.

Morning and while rabbits 🐇 from West Oxfordshire.

I am having a lie in. I’m still not the full sixpence and probably overdid it yesterday. Just the usual stuff - ironing, laundry, making dinner and making a cake.

So today will be spent reading and cooking a simple dinner of beef stew and apricot clafoutis. If I have any energy we may go to a local farmers market.

Have a good day everyone in these difficult times. My cousin’s daughter and her family live in Dubai and my daughter’s flatmate is on holiday in Qatar.

If this posturing by trump is a diversion from the Epstein files, well…

Thinking of FGT and her family. 🌹

Good morning everyone and happy White Rabbits Day from a bright Northampton. A day at home for me with no plans except thinking about what to take on holiday.

Enjoyed a brilliant rugby match yesterday; with my team 12 points behind with 10 minutes to go they scored twice and won by 2 points! The noise was incredible! 💛💚

Wishing all a pleasant Sunday.

Good morning from an overcast Cambridgeshire where the wind will build later making it rather a chilly day. No real plans today just housework and ironing and a steak and ale pie for dinner.

Yesterday I went to a big garden centre on the outskirts of Cambridge with a friend. We had a nice lunch and both happy with various bits and pieces we bought. I potted up my purchase of a beautiful pink camellia which has lots of buds and about to flower putting it in a very sheltered place. Just managed an hour on the garden before the rain and sleet came.

Happy Anniversary to Mr and Mrs Cornergran and best wishes to everyone else celebrating. Take care Madeleine on your planned adventure! FGT 💐 Hoping all is well with Rosesandlilac.

Happy Sunday to all 🌼

Good morning all from Cambridge.
I made it here in time for the birthday party which was amazing. My Dsis is 80 going on 18! They'd hired a large venue with a quiet space for food and chat and a loud room for their 2 in-house bands . Their DD sang with her band and DGD sings with hers! In-between their DS DeeJayed requests and everyone was dancing if they could.
I had and still have a sore throat and didn't feel too well so left early but I could hear the after party still going downstairs at 2am.

Needless to say it was quiet this morning when I made myself a cuppa and dosed myself with paracetamol.
I think I may have tonsillitis so not a nice birthday gift.

That was quite an adventure Madeleine I'm glad you saw the night sky and hope you can retrieve the missing parts today.

Happy St David's Day to everyone.

Happy anniversary to Cornergran and DH💐
Happy birthday to you Jaxjacky 🎉

Wishing a great day to everyone celebrating today 🌼

Good morning from a bright Suffolk. I’m hoping this continues as we are off to DS’s in Ipswich for lunch. DGS3 loves cooking,his present favourite is French onion soup so I think that might feature in the meal.

For once I think there are no road closures at the moment on the A12 because of work at Sizewell. Diversions around here usually add many miles to a journey often along country roads as major roads are few and far between.

I’ll read your posts now over my second cup of tea and hope for a good day for all.
