Positive news, positive thoughts, happy weekend.

Not sure of the geography but do get to Skipton if you can. The castle is incredibly atmospheric and the town lovely. If you’ve a dog, great river walk.

We used to live just outside Skipton.

Our plans are to do the Himalayan Gardens at Grewelthorpe, Newby Hall and Fountains/Studley 7 bridges walk.

PS Happy Birthday to all celebrating theirs this week 💐💐🎂🍾🥂

Have the best time and 🤞🤞for nice weather.

As most Fridays we are packed ready to drive to our holiday van, just a short 1.25 hrs if traffic good. We spend just two or three nights there while DMiL is still in home very close to our actual home and DH visits three days a week.

Have a happy, peaceful, positive weekend, one and all 🙂🙂🌸🪻🌻

Happy Birthday merlotgran and belated birthday wishes AGAA4 💐💐

Happy Birthday Merlotgran. I had my birthday this week too.

Reasons to be cheerful, 123…

It’s my birthday today so I’m going to DD’s for the weekend. 🥳🍷❤️
A visit to Hinton Ampner gardens planned for tomorrow so 🤞 for some ☀️
Mexico beat SA so I’m in the lead in the family sweepstake!
🇲🇽⚽️🤷‍♀️😂

Good idea for a positive thread Sago and lovely to read the positive activities of everyone else. Enjoy them all 💐
My car goes in for its MOT today to the local garage so I will have an enforced walk home which will do me good and then a walk back to collect it 😀
It is my birthday next Friday and I will be spending it in Venice with a friend of 50 years.
As she uses a mobility scooter, we have spent much time organising an “accessible” itinerary but looking forward to whatever we can manage.
Will see the son, daughter and grandchildren over the weekend at some point for birthday card drops so that is another positive thing to look forward to.

Enjoy your break in The Dales lovely part of the world. Stop off at Bettys if near Harrogate and have a cuppa ☕️ and a Fat Rascal🍪😁

If you are into nature and animals, perhaps a catch up of Spring Watch on I Player would be pleasant.

It’s important not to be a too avid news fan I think. There’s too much rolling news coming at us.
There’s life out there waiting to be lived.

Have a great time Sago.
Hopefully with better weather this weekend my DD and SiL are going to take my DH to his favourite local park and I get a chance to go into central London to meet up with an old friend.
Can’t wait, haven’t seen her for a couple of years.

Enjoy your time in the beautiful Dales!

I’m all for a bit of positive news. DH always feels obliged to watch News at Ten, but it sent me to bed feeling thoroughly depressed last night. An early night with my book tonight, I think! I’m meeting a friend for lunch at our lovely local tearooms today, then off to the first school sports day of our summer to cheer on DGS3. That should start my weekend off on the right foot.

We had a lovely day today down at a local winery ( we are lucky because we live minutes away from a large wine growing area ) . There were only the 6 of us and they catered especially for us with lovely home cooked Italian food. It was sunny and warm ( winter here so that’s nice ) and we looked across the beautiful vineyard to the distant hills, very rural . I love where we live, we are so blessed.

I urge all my ACs and GCs to get out and enjoy life. The news is so depressing and there is little we can do to change it so may as well have an enjoyable time if we can.
I'm meeting my son later for lunch so looking forward to that.
Enjoy your weekend Sago.

Have a great holiday, Sago in the beautiful area that you’re going to. Thank you for the positivity. I hope the thread stays that way.

Ooh thanks for that Sago will have a look.

Have a fabulous weekend 🙋‍♀️
