Good Morning Everyone,
Its light and dry just before sun up here in Brackley this morning.
Have had a bad night as to loo visits , but otherwise up and showered ,and get into my usual routine with the bus trip to Bicester to shop and maybe chat to those I know.
Health wise I think the cold chilly wind we have been getting seem to be the cause of problems , Maybe I should have the Raspatory jab.
Take Care,
Mick

Good morning from cloudy West Sussex.

I’m so sorry to hear that you have vasculitis on top of everything else, Blossoming. I will miss your posts and photos and will be thinking about you and hoping for improvement 🌹

Marzipan, young people seem to have no idea that their vapes can affect the health of those around them. My two oldest gcs vape and though they don’t do it when I am there I hate the thought. DD despairs.

My echium is in flower and covered with bees., as are the cerinthe which have flowered magnificently this year. I will try posting a photo. Lovely to hear of and see the rhododendrons.

DH is off to a meeting and I am supposed to be packing the van ready for a mid-afternoon departure. I have to go to the dentist in an hour to collect my upper denture, now with added teeth to replace the ones I had removed. At least I will be able to smile again 😂

We will be in your area tonight, Mick, so I will give you a wave! I hope you have a better night.

I will probably be offline for a few days so will have to catch up when we are in Scotland next week. Please warm up the weather for me northerners and Scots!

Hope for better news from all those with challenges. Safe travelling and happy holidays to those going away.

Good morning
Heavy showers interspersed with sunshine here today and still very cold.
Sorry to read you’re feeling a bit down greyduster. I think a fall can knock the confidence a bit but I’m glad you made it to school.
Oh Blossoming, sorry to hear that 💐.
Hello Thomas61.

Blossoming, sorry you’re not well. Hope you feel better soon. I’ll miss your photos of the docks and Lytham. I’m not sure I’ll ever get there again as I’m uncertain of travelling by train alone now although I do miss the scenery on the York to Preston line.
I’m still enjoying reading of everyone’s doing, but seldom have anything to contribute.

I’m so sorry Blossoming x

Welcome to*Thomas 61*

Blossoming. I hope you will feel much better very soon. I enjoy your descriptions of visits to Lytham, having once lived there.
Thoughts to all who are finding life challenging, especially Roses and Lilac and Marydol.
I'm helping with refreshments this afternoon at the local Growing Old Disgracefuly Club. smile
