Good Morning Wednesday 9th September 2026

Good morning from a dry Bristol. It did rain gently all morning yesterday, but, suddenly, in the afternoon the rain switched off and the sun came out!
The morning was quiet and I baked some lemon cake and ginger nuts for today, and made a mushroom soup for lunch, then sewed.
In the early afternoon, three residents and I went round “phase 1”of the painting, taking notes of the things remaining to be done, + things like paint sloshed onto the brickwork…
Soon after, I had another meeting regarding the later life charity groups. Well run, not long but productive.
Home for dinner and early bed as I was tired.
Today, I’ve got FAB cafe as usual, then my monthly book group in the next village’s library. The book this month, a light whodunnit, was by Tim Sullivan and set in Bristol.
May your day be pain-free and full of sunshine. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🐦‍🔥🦩

Good morning from Malta where another sunny day is forecast with a high of 37°C.

I’m up watching the tennis. It was scheduled to start at 2am our time so I set the alarm. Checked to see if the ladies match had finished but it went on until nearly 5am so I’ve been up and down all night.

No plans today other than a walk to the pharmacy to make a doctor’s appointment.

Hoping you all have a good day.☀️

Good morning from Belfast.
Yesterday turned out quite pleasant so I decided to pot geraniums up for winter and find a place for them probably the porch.
Washing machine repaired so sheets will be going on washing line as soon as it's light.
DH had a meeting last night and tonight as well everything starting again it means I have to be organised for dinner early.
Don't know what I'm doing today I'm sure something will turn up.
Have a good day everyone.

A bit of a cheat this one, I’m in Vancouver so having a quick peek before I go to sleep!

It’s been a beautiful day, we have walked many miles, taken a sea bus and had our picnic lunch in the sky garden at the top of Vancouvers public library.

Tomorrow is our last day before we fly home on Thursday, we are going to walk the Lynn Valley suspension bridge and as long as there are no bear signs we will take a hike.

Had a wonderful time here visiting our son and partner.

Just hoping the airport chaos will have been sorted before we leave.

Goodnight😉
