Good Morning Sunday 3rd May 2026

Good morning, it’s dampish here in south Glos, we had a couple of hours of steady rain yesterday afternoon which was very welcome, there’s more forecast for today.
I spent an hour messing around in the garden, sorting out my plants waiting for me to put them in the borders. I will do that this week.
My dahlias are showing signs of growth 👏, I have very mixed results with growing them.
Roast chicken for dinner, I’ll have salad with mine but I will do roast potatoes for DH.
Best wishes to everyone x

Good morning from a dawning Bristol. I think we shall have more rain, after yesterday’s showers.
Looks like you will have a lovely day with the cycling, Mick.
I did the church cleaning before coffee, but left early as I was tired. It suddenly came to me why I’m so tired this week, it’s the Covid jab side effects. I normally feel unwell, but I’ve never had this week long exhaustion.
I did very little in the afternoon; dinner was from the freezer, one of my lucky dips. I don’t label my boxes!
Church today, then potter again.
Ash, I’m glad you’re enjoying your cruise, sounds lovely, fgt, I hope you enjoyed your celebration meal, despite the inevitable tears. 💐to those with difficulties.
Carpe diem, have a blessed Sunday ✝️ 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning from Malta where it’s to be a partly cloudy day with a high of 21°C.

I enjoyed coffee and a chat with my lovely friend yesterday. Then went home and stripped the bed,including the mattress protector, and proceeded to do laundry all day. I removed the blanket as it’s too warm now, and changed the bedspread to a new one. It’s never cold enough to need a duvet.

Watched the Ladies tennis final from Madrid. The winner was from Ukraine and her opponent from Russia so there was no handshake, no mention of her in the speech and no photos together. I can’t help feeling politics should not be brought into sports. It was uncomfortable to watch, especially as the poor lass who lost was in tears.😞

Had a long chat with DD2 and DGD on FaceTime. DGD was getting ready for her prom. She looked absolutely gorgeous but so grown up it made me wonder how she grew up so fast.

Today I will go to Mass, have a FaceTime chat with my pal in Leicester and watch the Men’s Final later, hoping Jannik Sinner will win.

RosesandLilac, I love dahlias, they remind me of my dear late brother-in-law who grew beautiful ones. Please will you put photographs when they flourish.😊

Wishing a peaceful Sunday to all. ☀️

Good morning from damp South Lanarkshire.

The wedding reception was enjoyable, the bride, who is very petite, looked like a Disney Princess doll. We sat with another couple who live near us and had a pleasant evening chatting with them.

This evening I’m going to the cinema with DD and DGD2 to see the Devil Wears Prada which will be fun and frothy I’m sure.

Hope everyone has a good day.

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 9° and wet.
Yesterday I picked my friend and we went for breakfast to the garden centre. We were just starting our cooked breakfast when dd, dsil and the boys appeared. The boys immediately came over for hugs. Dgs1 was very happy because his team won all their matches. Dgs2 was happy because he managed to jump in the pool unaided at his swimming lesson. After breakfast I brought my friend to my house to see the newish decor. She was impressed with the changes. After a cuppa, I took her home. Ds sent me a photo that he also had been out for breakfast.
In the afternoon, I did some housework and then had a tesco delivery. The driver is such a lovely man from Portugal.
Today I will make leek and potato soup. I have a surfeit of leeks, having ordered too many. This afternoon the boys are coming for a sleepover as dd and dsil have a wedding. I have ordered all their favourite foods so I expect they will be eating all afternoon! Then both of them will want a bath later. Apparently my bath is the best. Have a good day all.

Good morning from s somerset, bland weather today, dull and maybe light shower this afternoon

My poisonous lily of the valley are showing invasive tendencies now, after four years so I started the process of elimination this morning. They will all have to go, the flowers are lovely but not worth the risk, trouble or danger to others. They started to come up through gravel and it would be pavers next

I had a very lazy day yesterday and will be more active today but first my large lovely mug of tea beckons, I have to use my china mug, tea tastes so much nicer
