Good Morning Tuesday 28th April 2026

Good morning from a brightening Cornwall where a beady eye is coveting my breakfast snack. Litterpicker those echium yesterday were magnificent!

Yesterday was another day of painting at my daughter-in-law's new place and as I got there before her I met her lovely, elderly, housebound neighbour who was sitting at her door in her wheelchair and called hello as I walked past. They will get on wonderfully as they are both chatterboxes.

Today I've arranged a coffee meet-up for five of my friends who for years were a weekly prayer group but our lives have gone in different directions. Getting us to meet nowadays is like herding cats, you'd never think we live in the same town, but it will be so lovely to catch up. After that, a bus ride to more painting. I have a key to the new home and can start ahead of my daughter-in-law if she's running late.

Good morning from an overcast Bristol. No sun today apparently.
I was sorry to learn about your ex-vicar, ash. I hope you have some news today, r&l; md, may your day be less complicated…
The residents have been waiting with bated breath (not) for the painting of the estate to begin. It has been postponed from 2023. Supposed to have been done in February (!) then the scaffolding was to be put up last week and the painting started this week…. Exactly!
I got some potting compost from Tesco yesterday and took advantage of the good weather to repot some house plants, and some of my big pots outside. I’ve put in some sweet peas, underplanted with lettuce; and got a couple of pots ready for baby tomatoes. I was very successful with them last year. I’ve gone plant of red, one of yellow and shall try to get one orange when the local shop gets them.
Today is quiet. Im shall make a load of biscuits for next week’s live FAB cace concert, some for tomorrow and cake as well.
Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
