Morning all from a wet North Leicestershire.

This morning we are taking Bertie and Persie home to meet their new brother this morning. Hopefully we will get a cuddle too!

Then Dh and I are going out for Sunday lunch for my birthday - which was in January!! We've had a busy year! I might have a champagne cocktail to celebrate!

Enjoy the beef Mick.

Many Congratulations kitty!

Morning Mick, morning Kitty

Still dark here in the depths of Norfolk - and warm. It’s supposed to be raining but I think it may mostly pass us by. I did some gardening yesterday and the soil is like sand and shallow rooted plants are looking very sorry for themselves. I can’t believe there’s so much rain elsewhere!

I’ve got a cold and I’m supposed to be going to my first Tai Chi class this morning at half past nine. I’ll have to stand in the corner well away from everyone else.

I love slow cooked beef Mick, especially with dumplings - but they’re definitely off my menu at the moment, my clothes don’t fit! Have a lovely meal Kitty and definitely go for that cocktail!

Good morning all, not very pleasant here.
Once again, congratulations Kitty and family.
NFK, hope you feel better and Mick me some stew, we have no cooking facilities, yesterday was a bit of a disaster in the kitchen.☹️
Have a pleasant Sunday, everyone.

Morning Mick and All.

A dark wet day here in South Bucks.

How exciting Kitty to have your first cuddle with your new grandson. Hope Bertie and Persie are equally impressed with their new brother. Congratulations all round. Now a champagne cocktail sounds just perfect. Enjoy your belated Birthday.

Will hunker down from the rain, cook a nice roast beef dinner, watch the Tennis Final from Shanghai and generally be lazy. Enjoy your beef stew Mick

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. It is persisting down here in South Yorkshire and unless it is called off, we are going to a football match and then to lunch at DD’s. Mick save me some of your slow cooked beef?! Kitty how lovely you get to see the new babe today. I’m sure the children will be entranced by him! Have a happy peaceful day, folks.

Greyduster Sun 14-Oct-18 07:56:59

If it’s any consolation, Marydoll we had a bit of a disaster with our downstairs loo project too. It currently doesn’t have a sink! Hope you can cook soon though!!

Blue45Sapphire Sun 14-Oct-18 08:05:10

Good morning all; throwing it down here in Northampton, and I am going to get very wet going to the cinema this afternoon! Going to see the Cliff Richard concert, the rerun of the live concert that was streamed on Friday evening. Must get dinner out of the freezer before I go!
Congratulations Kitty on the new grandson.
And Saints lost yesterday......

Gagagran Sun 14-Oct-18 08:09:55

Morning everyone! It's raining cats and dogs here on the south coast but the wind has dropped and it is warm. The roses are still in full and copious bloom. It's been a great year for roses here.

Hope you get your cuddle with the new addition kitty. Nothing quite like the scent and feel of a new baby - scrumptious!

Have a good day folks.

Marydoll Sun 14-Oct-18 08:13:05

Thanks, Greyduster, thats not so good. You must be pretty disappointed.
it's been nothing but a catalogue of disasters here. They men got little done yesterday, as they discovered the condensing pipe for our boiler had been installed wrongly. The whole kitchen floor was up, I could have wept.
Then as they were leaving, a unit fell off the wall.?Worse was to come. After they left, we realised that once the range is in, we won't be able to open the cupboard next to it.☹️?
These are the men who made a fantastic job of building the extension, so I don't know what has gone wrong.
As they are doing it as a " homer", heaven knows when they will finish.
My downstairs looks a if we have been burgled.?

Morning everyone, dull here in Fife although the rain has stopped. Just reading everyone's posts today some good and some not so good - oh dear.

Kittylestyer - hope all is well have you come down from cloud nine yet? Marydoll - I do feel for you I can imagine how you are feeling but try and keep your chin up things can will get better. To all hopefully the day will be good to you and enjoy your Sunday.

Willow10 Sun 14-Oct-18 08:25:34

Good morning all from a very grey, wet East Northants. I'm not complaining though, it must be our turn after a really fine week and such a beautiful day yesterday. Finally managed to get a new phone case from Northampton market after looking for months. Today will be hunkering down with knitting and catching up on tv recordings. Congratulations to Kitty and Family!

harrigran Sun 14-Oct-18 08:37:38

Good morning from a damp, grey NE.
It is our wedding anniversary and we are supposed to be going to the Lakes but not sure it is wise.
Congratulations kitty lovely news.

Good morning . Pouring with rain here in N. Bucks. DD 3 and family coming for lunch. Holiday unpacking can wait until they have gone.
Congratulations Kitty and all your family.

Pittcity Sun 14-Oct-18 08:41:51

Good morning from grey, wet but still warm Colchester. Yesterday was a gorgeous day spent outside, today the total opposite.
Sunday roast at lunchtime as DH is having his knee scanned at 6pm tonight!
Many congrats to the Lesters ?

Pittcity Sun 14-Oct-18 08:43:31
