Good morning Mick you’re awake early but then so am I. It’s the start of a promising sunny day here on the east coast of Fife where the birds are chirping away. I’m going to have family visiting early this morning we’re all going to be busy bees. I’ll have a shower and wash my hair first thing once I get help to get up. Then I’ll have a poached egg on toast and another piece of toast with butter and marmalade, my usual fresh orange juice with bits.

Have a good day all those who come after me 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Good morning from Bristol. Sunshine! ☀️☀️☀️
I’ve only just woken up; such a treat, especially after yesterday’s 0230. I was very tired.
Yesterday went well. At Spanish, we watched an interesting documentary about the controversies surrounding the World Cup; political, financial and environmental due to being held in three very different countries.
I did quite a bit of sewing, mostly quilting the squares before assembling. I also did two deliveries of paperwork/letters to the residents.
Today, apart from serving at coffee and chat, pre-conservatoire youngsters are holding a concert in the church for the Suzuki academy in Kiev. (Not surprisingly) I’m serving the refreshments, as well as welcoming patrons. The concert should be interesting as it promises classical to jazz music.
I hope this finds you in a good place.

Good morning from the NE Mids. Very light breeze this morning which I hope will keep the rainclouds away. Lots of jobs planned for today including pegging out some washing, hence the need for a dry day.
Have a good day one and all!

Good morning from Sheffield
A good nights sleep was enjoyed last night, it makes such a difference. I feel I can face the day with enthusiasm.

I’m not sure what today will bring. I think I will garden , lots of things need tidying up after the recent rain and wind.
I have been donated a lovely stone planter which needs planting up so I will nip to the garden centre for a bag of compost and see what plants they have.
Then an easy evening , take care everyone flowers

Mick, loss of weight and lower blood pressure readings would be great for me but perhaps not good for you!
Hope to hear soon that you have had a checkup with your health carers!

Good morning from Malta where it is sunny with a high of 31°C forecast.

Had my roots done yesterday then went to Lidl. There was a cool breeze blowing which made being out in the sun a lot easier.

Watched a bit of tennis, did a bit of laundry, generally pottered about. I’m happiest at home, always have been. DH had to be on the go all the time. Well they do say opposites attract!😊

I need to do a bit of cleaning today, the floors need steam mopping. I do my cleaning in bits as it’s too hot to do it all in one go like I used to when I was younger and fitter.

Wishing you all the best day possible. Thoughts to all with troubles.☀️

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 11°and bright although rain is forecast.
Yesterday was a quiet day, as expected. I pottered about and got washings done. It was meet the new teacher day for the boys. Dgs2 was apparently hyper when dd picked him up. His teacher said he was "just lovely." Dgs1 reported that his new teacher was nice.
Today I'll head to Aldi first thing. I think I'm having the boys to let dd and dsil buy stuff for their holiday, but it hasn't been confirmed. Have a good day all

Good morning from Cornwall where it's wall-to-wall sunshine today, yikes. There's a sea shanty festival in a seaside town this weekend which I can get to so I may venture to that, if I fancy battling crowds. There are some interesting Breton singers who might lure me. 😄

I heard yesterday that my school run commitment is coming to an end as the children are growing up so I'll have an incredibly free week now that I also have no allotment. An opportunity to find something else to do. Exciting!

Well, I'm off to my patio swing seat now with a coffee and hot cross bun, yum. 😋
