Good Morning Everyone,
Its daylight but looking grey and cold outside here in Brackley this morning.
Yesterday I did not risk it and did not go on the coach trip, health wise .
Today a day indoors besides meals with watch Tour Of Italy on TV.
Take Care,
Mick

Good morning everyone from a grey and windy Northampton; just popped out to the garage to get something from the freezer and it feels really chilly.

Yesterday was lovely and warm and I enjoyed my trip into town to the cinema; I had time to have a wander round the shops first, and ended up with a new nightdress (to slip on on warm summer mornings), two new diffusers (lemon and sea-salt) and a pack of 3 toothbrushes.
I then went to the cinema and settled down to watch the film (Rose of Nevada) with 🍷, and spent the next couple of hours wondering what it was all about! I had to Google the plot afterwards.... It appeared to be be about a ghost fishing boat and time travel. I can't make out why it got a four-star review in my newspaper.

My only plans for today are to cut my large back lawn, and then catch up with the weekend papers, but a sausage butty calls me first.
Rack of lamb for dinner.

Wishing all a pleasant Sunday.

Morning all from West Oxfordshire.

I didn’t wake until after 8 am.

Lunch out today and then we’re going to visit one or two Oxford Arts Weeks exhibitions. If we have time we may pop into a garden centre and buy hanging basket plants.

I am off to Kew tomorrow to look after my granddaughter for a few days so I need to sort out what I’m taking. While I’m there I will take the opportunity to call into the V&A, National Gallery and Kew Gardens (I’m a member now). Once I’ve dropped S off at school I am free until 3.30 pm.

Have a good Sunday. It’s rather grey here but I don’t think rain is forecast.

Just read all the previous posts.

Lovely photos again today.
Happy memories of Bowood for me glammagran, sounds as though you had a lovely time.
Also happy memories of Cambridge, brook.

FGT2 shall be thinking of you next week in Malaga; go with a brave heart and all will be fine. Himself would be so pleased and happy for you, so hold on to that thought. That is what has got me through many a difficult time.

fgt well done for booking your flight back to Malaga. I’m sure you’ll receive a warm and sympathetic welcome back from your friends there.

Good morning everyone from sunny Lancashire.

It’s a beautiful morning here. MrB and I have enjoyed our favourite walk around the dock. I have not been feeling well recently, I am sleeping badly but I’m so grateful to be able to get out in the sunshine and fresh air.

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

Wishing you a good day whatever you’re doing. 🌹

Well done on booking your flights FGT. It will be very sad doing all these things alone for the first time but hopefully it will also be cathartic flowers
