Morning from another sunny day here in Bristol, shopping this morning for me for a few things for our trip away later in the week.

Good morning from a wet Aberdeenshire...It's been peeing with rain all night but the sun is trying to come out.
Had a great day at the show yesterday and saw one of two familiar, but older faces. Modern tractors are amazing and huuuuuge! Ditto combine harvesters etc. and are like space ships with all the modern gadgets. Who would have thought that you you could plough/harrow/sow a field using GPS and never touch the steering wheel?!
Great to see so many youngsters turning out and showing their horses to perfection...these kids are the children of those that my own daughter rode with...must be getting old!
The nurse should be in later to take bloods ready for chemo tomorrow so the mutt and I should get out of bed.
Have a good day everyone.

Morning Mick, morning All, it’s fresher and sunny in our corner of Somerset. Unexpected trip to the local police this morning. Found a phone plus cash, cards and goodness knows what else early (6.30) yesterday. Discovered can’t report found items via 101 (although the call will be charged!) or our local police web site, no local face to face facility open on Sunday. The poor person must be tearing their hair out. So an unexpected trip to town this morning then general faffing. Hope Monday is kind to everyone.

Good morning from Dymchurch, cloudy with the odd shafts of sunlight and the breeze picking up. GD will be arriving mid afternoon, straight from the plane from Spain. DD and her partner are bringing her down and taking DS back with them to London. I think he’s worn out after 3 days with us. Wander down to the beach shortly (the tide goes a lot further out than the Northumbrian beaches I’m used to) and then food and birthday card shopping. Have a good day.

Hello from Dublin, everyone. It's a bank holiday here and the sky is somewhat dark and ominous with just a little light coming through. Still, we'll go down and walk the pier and see how it goes. Gillybob, like others I am always impressed by your energy! Enjoy Monday everyone.

Further to my previous post, it is not a Bank Holiday here!
That’s in Scotland, and I am in Berkshire, or at least I was when I last looked.
I had wondered why all the children hadn’t mentioned what they would be doing today.
I shall now go and have a strong cup of coffee.

Hello everyone from sunny Lancashire and washing machine going strong!

Not been on Gransnet long and really enjoying reading the posts and such interesting posts from like minded ladies.

New granddaughter is 3 weeks old and such a little poppet, but they all are. Nothing like a new baby to put a smile on everyone's face!

Enjoy your day Ladies.

Cornergran, when I left my purse at the bus stop the person who found it was able to trace me and let me know. Could you not do the same? Bright and sunny here in N Somerset but I am really tired so will have to have a nap for 30 mins or so before carrying one.

My son came over this morning to look at my skirting board that needs doing, and then after a quick measurement we went out for a spot of light lunch. He is always late for everything, the only time he has been on time was when he was born.
