Good Morning Wednesday 6th May 2026

Good morning from a grey Bristol. It is supposed to have rained overnight, but everything seems dry. We so need the rain.
The trip to Tesco on foot went fine, I did two loads of washing then dried, ironed and put it away. I also planted my baby tomato plants. All I need now are some runner beans and an orange baby tomato plants- I’ve already got red and yellow. I’ve put French marigolds around them.
Today is a live concert day at FAB cafe - we hall have upwards of 80 attendees (if the weather isn’t too wet). I have already made a load of baking.
I hope MD’s dh is ok and it didn’t take too long for them to be seen. May the poorly get some respite and everyone else have a peaceful day.
Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning from a sunny part of the Rhine between Strasbourg and Breisach.

Photos show Strasbourg Cathedral, including the astronomical clock and surrounding buildings which we visited yesterday. It was good to sit in a pavement café, watching the world go by! Today we are going on a coach trip through the Black Forest.

Happy hump day, everyone! 💐

Good morning from Malta where a windy day is forecast with a high of 23°C.

Yesterday I walked to the village to buy bread but ended up buying a lot more then realising it was going to be rather heavy to carry so I had to buy myself a shopping trolley! It certainly helped as I had a long walk to the next shop I needed, although I went in vain as they still don’t have what I went for in stock.

Had a visit from DD3 and the boys after school. DGS1 ate two bowls of porridge and DGS2 a large bowl of strawberries.

They played happily while DD3 had a nap but when she woke up DGS2 started being an absolute pain to his mum. He wants all the attention and can be a nightmare when he starts with his ‘strong feelings’! He never does it when he’s with me but when his mum is there he plays up. His brother just lets it all go over his head, he’s such a placid little boy. They are chalk and cheese.

I have a hair appointment today for a colour but before that a bit of housework. The floors need doing and I still haven’t done the ironing!

You put me to shame grandMattie with all your busyness!

Hoping Mr MD is doing better today, thoughts with all our poorly friends and loved ones, and our absent posters.☀️

Good morning from Shropshire.A dry day forecast.

After a few quiet days a busy day today.I have an appointment in Chester which DD1 will take me to as DH has an eye test in a different town at the same time.We will collect DGD from school later, take her for something to eat and then to her dance class.

Hoping Marydoll has better news today🙏🏻

Enjoy your coach trip Ash.

Wishing everyone the best day possible🌷🦩
