Good Morning Everyone,
Its a dry ,and bright start here in Brackley this morning.
The Warner's at Studley Castle near Redditch trip.
We had about 90 minutes in Stratford upon Avon which was busy as well , considering the month we are in.
The Hotel and part Castle , is still in the state of construction it opened on 1st March.
Warner's seem to be trying to attract a slightly younger element.

Anyway , food was good , the main restaurant, also has the entertainments stage as well, you select your table on arrival , room wise nice, from the lounge cum café you have views of Studley and Redditch , they are doing 2 nighters here also .

because it was not complete we all got £50 back from Warner's but in the operators voucher's who I use for my trips and short breaks.

Good morning all; it's bright and sunny in Northampton, and I am just about to hang my first load of washing out, with another lot waiting to go in the machine.

Then a bit of general tidying up, may hoover bedrooms. And make some spicy lamb-burgers.

Early lunch and then a health walk, followed by coffee and chat.

DH and I went to a Warners a few years back, but not overly impressed; the room was fine, but we were packed into the restaurant like sardines, cheek by jowl. We didn't fancy trying a different one. Same with Lochs and Glens holidays, just not our cup of tea.

Hope everyone's day goes well.

Oh dear, a former colleague who had been ill for some time has died. Very sad.
Getting cold is not fun.

Good morning all from a slightly overcast Aberdeenshire, but at least it's dry. The mutt was such a good boy yesterday, getting the tick removed from his eyelid and the vet's hand is still intact.
Nothing special planned for today as I have to stay in 'til the old car is collected. It's a pottering in the greenhouse day. The mutt is still asleep so can't even have an early walk.
Have a good day everyone.

Oh heck that sort of message should not have a typo in it.

Good morning, overcast and cool in my part of NE.
DH has another trip to the hospital in next city, yesterday he was gone for five hours, I am hoping it will be less today as we may have to do a school run.
Sorry to hear of your broadband woes kitty, we have BT and it is superb no problems at all. Family that have Sky are always moaning about it.

Good morning from sunny Colchester.
DGS2 has chicken pox and so is with us instead of nursery today. It's 8.30 and I'm already exhausted. You'd never know he was ill if he wasn't spotty.

So sorry to hear of your colleague Nelly.
Hope your hospital appointment goes well Dora.

If it is any consolation Kitty we have Sky and love it. If we have a problem they send an engineer round almost immediately. We had one come out last Saturday and sorted out problems we didn't know we had!!
Good luck though as I am more bad tempered when the broadband goes than when the car doesn't start.

Good morning All x
The sun is trying its best to come out but it's not too cold. Although it was so sunny yesterday I was perished because that breeze was bitter-----but you can't have everything.

Asda later and I've got a list as long as my arm ? I'll never learn that there's only me and the cats !! I've begun to hate doing these shops on my own. It's never bothered me before, ah well there are folk worse off sad

Oh dear I'm getting my moaning done today. I'll buck up as the day goes on-----I hope.

Hope everyone else enjoys their day whatever they do.

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. It is cold and grey in South Yorkshire and The Guv’nor has a chest infection, so I don’t suppose we will be going very far. If it brightens up I will do a bit more gardening. Whispers (((Happy Birthday Mr NfK, Happy Birthday tooo yooooo!))). Hope you get Sky sorted soon Kitty. Have a good day folks.

Very bright and very chilly here on the south coast, bad night's sleep has resulted in slow moving morning. A trip to the doctors for my yearly check up, then a lazy day because if it warms up a little I am going to make the most of it, and sit in the garden to watch the birds. Enjoy your day.

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. Sunny-ish. A day for gardening. We feel very proud to have repositioned the greenhouse glass yesterday.
Sorry to hear of so many woes.
Kitty at least you can connect with GN.
Mick sounds like you had a nice outing.
oldgaijin DD has to shake the ticks off the dog and the DC after their walks in the highlands.

Good morning from a very sunny if slightly chilly Devon. Not much planned for today apart from pottering round the garden.

A late good morning from E. Northants - internet has been playing up! I've spent the morning cutting the grass, ironing, tidying up - pootling and faffing as someone else puts it. Internet finally behaving itself!

(Just about) Good morning from east London. Bright but very fresh earlier this morning when I went for a swim but warming up nicely now. Sat down to do some paperwork but all good intentions went when I started comparing advice about my energy provider against what I was actually paying. School pickup later then book club this evening. Have a good day.
