Good Morning 1st May 2026 "May Day"

Good morning, Mick, I wouldn't normally be awake this early but I've had a restless night, came on here, and now I can hear all the wildlife waking up and I'm ready to go back to sleep! 😴

Have a nice time chatting with your friends in Bicester today. Glad to hear you're feeling well. The nice weather helps to put a spring in your step 😀. Take care.

Good morning from Malta where it’s cloudy and the high will be 21°C.

It’s a Public Holiday today (St Joseph the Worker), a fact which I had completely forgotten so went off to do my shopping and a few errands yesterday feeling quite pleased with myself for having made the effort to get out of the house.

On returning to the car I checked my phone only to have my happy bubble burst - I had missed my hair appointment at 11.30 Yet another ‘senior moment’ or what a friend calls a CRAFT moment ( Can’t Remember A F***ing Thing. 😩

Watched tennis, cleaned the front steps, steam mopped the floors and was disappointed not to see the boys as they had a party to attend.

A lovely surprise, then, when I heard little voices outside the door just after 7pm and there were my two Treasures and their mum. They had their dinner here before leaving at 9pm so it was a lovely end to my day,

I’ll have to wash my own hair today, a task I loathe but it serves me right.

Shame about the Morris dancers, Mick, I love them and was in my element visiting my sister in Broadstairs during Folk Week where there were different groups dancing everywhere we went. Happy days.

Thoughts always with our troubled friends and also greetings to all who read but don’t post, I hope you all have the best day possible.☀️

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 3° and dry. There's a lovely clear sky which sadly has not to last.
Yesterday was a repeat of the day before. I did the ironing and put the clothes away. Then more clearing out the boys room and more weeding of the front garden. I had a lazy afternoon watching tv.
Today I have no plans. There's an in service day so I won't be going to the school. If it stays dry, I'll do more weeding. It's endless! I will probably change the sheets etc and wash them. Have a good day all.

White rabbits 🐇 🐇🐇 from an overcast Bristol.
It’s not as chilly as in the last few days. Yesterday’s diurnal variation was 13 degrees - too much!
May Day - is anyone going to hear choirs singing in the day, or seeing Morris dancing at dawn as the family is doing?
Thursday was quiet, I went into town and had a generally successful shop. After lunch I did my Spanish homework, I didn’t finish it as I found some bits too hard.
Today, after my class, I’m going over to the church hall to replace the covering of the remaining sound boards. Then, while I’m there, I’ll do my cleaning stint in the church.
Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Bellasnana how annoying for you! I have everything in three places, a paper calendar, on the fridge door and in my phone. That way, I rarely forget

grandMattie I write everything in my diary. Trouble is I forget to look at it and, as I usually have my appointment on a Friday, I get thrown by all these wretched public holidays. I think Malta and Ireland have 14 of them!
