Good Morning Saturday

Good Morning All x
The calm before the storm here on the coast ? I don't know, but it's still, damp, heavy cloud and a watery-looking sun now and again.

Yes we had outage at around 5pm yesterday and I was trying all the lights ready to flick a switch in the fuse cupboard until I noticed the 'fridge was also off which is on a different circuit so then I realised that everything was off. It remained off for about half an hour so many neighbours had wondered what had happened as next door was cooking her tea.
No mention of us here though it was all about London and the East ! Ah well. It was very bad whatever the cause.
Electric cars ? What a laugh !

I don't envisage doing very much today apart from cooking and perhaps make a cake. If we get the high winds I'll have to move the Oleanders to shelter or all the lovely white and deep pink flowers will be blown away. Summer ? Oh dear.

Hope there is some respite in between showers/storms for the wedding Marydoll. Who'd have thought it in August ? Such a shame. Enjoy the day best you can anyway, which goes for everyone else today.

Morning all from an overcast South Notts. Rain in the night means I don't have to water the flower borders and it's too wet to mow the lawn.
A lazy, self-indulgent day with reading the newspaper and the crossword. The washing machine is going but there'll be no hanging out so it'll be clothes horses , but never mind.
Hope all is well with everyone.

It seemed to spread across the country EllanVannin . As I watched it on the news last night I couldn’t help but wonder if it was a cyber attack ?

No summer here yet either I’m almost giving up on having a pleasant dry weekend.

Good morning from a dreich, gray Aberdeenshire. Yesterday, it peed with rain almost constantly and the mutt was a mud monster when he came back from his walk.
It hasn't been a good week as I had a bad reaction to chemo...very sick etc. and feeling like I had flu, so have spent most of the time asleep.
I managed to get to my annual retinal screening 'tho one hard of hearing friend thought I said RECTAL screening....much hilarity and laughter especially as I was not allowed to drive for a couple of hours because of the eye drops and she couldn't get why I had drops up the bum!!! Even more ribald laughter and leg pulling.
Thank goodness for irreverent chums.
Have a dry day everyone.

Good morning everyone from Malaga where it’s very hot (again). The Terral wind was back again last night but next week is forecast cooler. We are being very careful with sun protection, tee shirt on in the pool for 7y old grandson who now has a brown face with bleached white eyebrows! He still has another 2 weeks out here so his classmates won’t recogn him when he goes back.

Hope the wedding celebrations go really well Marydoll. Sunshine would be nice for photos but you’ll all manage fine without it.

Hope Saturday is good to us all whether we have plans or none. x

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Hope everyone has a good day x

Morning Mick, morning All. Grey, wet and oh so windy in our corner of Somerset. Feel for families arriving for a holiday, they must want to turn and go home. Major admin catch up day for me today, financial ‘stuff’ to sort. Mr C will double check, generally a tedious process. Enjoy the wedding maryd, hope Saturday is kind to everyone.

Good morning, it is dry with watery sun here in the NE. Weather is very fickle, we did not get any of the storms or very much in the way of rain. Watching the weather radar showed the storm clouds part and go either side of us ?
Have a wonderful day Marydoll, fingers crossed for decent weather.
Both of my DC were married in August, eleven years apart, but had spectacular weather.

Goodmorning from a very windy SE Essex.

Sar53 I would think that the QE2 bridge will be closed looking at my trees, they will just divert you through one of the tunnels (usual procedure)

Marydoll enjoy your wedding, I am sure you will look stunning.

The rain has just started!!!

Have to pop to local shops for newspaper and milk other than that no plans until babysitting later.

Keep safe and dry.

Good morning from Malta where it’s as hot as Hades.?

Meeting a Pal for coffee this morning then taking her to visit her husband who has been in hospital for over 8 weeks now. Her car broke down in the hospital car park yesterday so she had to leave it there.

Have a lovely day, all. Hope the wedding goes well Marydoll and that you will enjoy the happy occasion.

Take care.☀️

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders where it is wet underfoot but has stopped raining. I joined a minimeetup of Gransnetters yesterday and luckily we were indoors eating most of the time or on the bus! I felt sorry for the Festival goers drowned rats in Edinburgh but at least we avoided the power cuts. I would not have had my TV working again Mick I'd have to call an engineer.

I hope it's dry for the wedding Marydoll
Look forward to hearing about it.
We are halfway round painting the walls of the sitting room and hope to get it finished over the weekend.
Have a fun time if you can everyone..

Good morning everyone,

Very windy in Brittany overnight and even now. Garden furniture all over the place.

Off to a textile fete this afternoon in Lorient, looking forward to it as I'm mad about all things fabric.

Have a good day all x

Good morning everyone, very breezy here on the south coast, and hopefully this message will get through which is more than the past three or four have done, not sure what I have done (or not) to upset the powers that be. Enjoy your days, I am off to help get the teas for a visiting bowls club, who come for the day and spend some time on the beach - best of luck for that today.
