Good morning Mick and all from a cold and icy S Wales.
We had everything weather wise last night, heavy rain, hail and thunder and lightening.
DH visited both A&E and the GP yesterday, he has two lots of strong antibiotics. DS had to leave work to drive him, he's a good egg.
Nothing planned today.
Have a good Tuesday.

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. A frosty start in South Yorkshire but no snow here thank goodness. Dread the stuff! A bit of shopping this morning and then the second school run. GS is running tonight so there will no doubt be a lot of last minute chivvying him to eat his tea and to find his kit, which will be right under his nose! Have a good day folks.

Good Morning All a lovely morning here in Bristol.
Did not manage a walk yesterday because of the rain, so hopefully manage a long one today.
Beechnut and Gingster I saw The Favourite at the cinema and I did not like it.
I hope all have a peaceful day.

Gilly sorry I missed your post. Fingers crossed he’s better soon.?

Good morning all. Snowing here with more to come looking at the heavy skies.
Take care everyone, thinking of those who are poorly and have worries.

Goodmorning all from a cold and very wet Norfolk lots of rain overnight. A busy day planned shopping and sorting out the cottage for our friends who are arriving today. Hope you soon feel better SARK and the hospital goes well MARYDOLL, we need some sunshine to cheer people up. Have a good day everyone

Mommawolf Tue 28-Jan-20 08:52:02

GILLYBOB my thoughts and prayers are with. Take care.

Good morning Michael, Annie to come, and all others.
Today has started off bright and sunny again, but Sunday and Monday started like that. Then the rain started later and pounded down. Cheerful soul that I am.

Gilly I was sorry to hear of your DH setback, but hope and pray that he can be fixed soon. He has done so well, especially when you said he had been for a little walk recently. {{{hugs}}}.

We are supposed to be visiting our Sis in Law at the weekend, but have been told she is unwell, so we may not go. I am feeling down about that, but there is time, yet, and she may feel up to a visit in a few days. ?

Sending best wishes to Dragonfly, Oldgaijin, Marydoll, and all those who are unwell at the moment.
Have a good day one and all.

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Lots of rain here during night here in Norwich, also cold and windy. We have a funeral of a neighbour to go to this morning. A nice elderly man aged 87 and been poorly for a long while. It’s at the local parish church and then a burial in churchyard. I don’t like funerals (who does?) and especially burials, just can’t look at a deep hole waiting for the coffin. Will stay at the back of the group. Cremation for me please when time comes (not yet thankyou) I will be glad when it’s over
Hope you all have a happier morning!

harrigran Tue 28-Jan-20 08:59:08

Oh not again gillybob, I am so sorry. Take care of yourself too.

GrannySomerset Tue 28-Jan-20 09:08:01

So sad to read Gilly’s post and hope things improve. We could all do with some good news, nobody more than Gilly.
Bright morning in North Somerset; cleaner will be here so some necessary sorting out to do. Car still expensively in the garage until at least tomorrow so will have to stay very local.

Off now to get DH up, washed, shaved and dressed but no need to hurry him.

NannyJan53 Tue 28-Jan-20 09:12:07

Thinking of you gilly, I hope your DH will be looked after and his much needed operation is done now flowers

BlueSapphire Tue 28-Jan-20 09:17:01

Good morning all from a bright Northampton.
Just about to make a beef and lentil casserole for the slow cooker, then have a tidy up, and sort the cats out.
Early lunch then will try and get to a Health Walk, and then pick DGD up from school and give her tea before she goes to Brownies.
So sorry to hear about your DH, Gillybob and hope he feels better soon.
Best wishes to all.

Good morning from a very wet Cheshire. Just working myself up to taking the dog out in the rain; hope it stops before I take her on her much longer lunchtime walk. Quiet day, might pop round to my son's and do a bit of cleaning for him (sadly, I do quite enjoy cleaning and especially ironing, find it very theraputic ?).

Gillbob, so sorry to hear Mr Gillybob has been taken to hospital, hope they manage to sort him out. Take care. thanks

Annapops Tue 28-Jan-20 09:26:11

Such sad news Gilly. I hope things will improve for you both soon. X

Thinking of you and your husband gilly.x?

Good morning all from N Bucks where it is sunny and cold.
So sorry to hear about Mr Gillybob and also Mr Lins1066. Wishing you both well.
Book club this morning, then Hattie to kennels sad as I am off to London for a couple of days to help out with DGS. D flies out to Minneapolis for three weeks for a production and the poor little chap has croup. So hard for her to leave him, but SIL is taking him out next week for two weeks and he (DGS) is very excited at the prospect of snow (Also he is convinced he will meet Captain America smile )
Wishing you all a pleasant day.

A very wet good morning everyone from South Manchester. 39 posts on here when I clicked on and it’s taken me half an hour to read them all. I might start setting my alarm clock ha!

Oh gillybob I’m so sorry that your husband is poorly again. Perhaps they will organise his bladder surgery more quickly now that they witness the pain he suffers. You must be out of your mind with worry.

DoraMarr what your 3y old granddaughter said was too cute!

Marydoll I hope your cardiac appointment goes well and you tell them of the bad angina attack you had on Sunday.

You are in my thoughts today too Scentia I hope you enjoy bathing your baby grandson tonight. Being with these little people is balm to the soul.

A quiet day in today. I’m addicted to catch up of a silly programme my son in law recommended on Sunday. Half hour episodes on BBC called ‘King Gary’ - I’m laughing away!

We are doing the school pick up at 3pm, taking our 7y old grandson to his home, giving him his tea then driving him to his swimming lesson. When we are home, little helps like this take the pressure off the busy family.

Hope Tuesday is kind to us all whether we have plans or none. x

Good morning all from Malta where it is a beautiful, sunny day.

So very sorry to hear your DH has had another setback, gillybob, you must be worn out with worrying.flowers

Maw is your D going to be at the Guthrie? My DD1 lived in Minneapolis for a couple of years and took me to two excellent productions there. South Pacific and West Side Story. I was very impressed.

Sorry your GS has croup, it’s horrible and can be scary. Two of my DD’s had it when small so I know what it’s like.?

I’m very late getting going today, haven’t got any plans but must get out for a long walk somewhere. I get lazier by the day now I’ve no DH to chivvy me.?

Best wishes to all, sorry for not mentioning everyone, but you are all in my thoughts and especially those of you struggling with troubles and ill health. I hope the sunshine will come out for you very soon.

Jangran99 Tue 28-Jan-20 09:58:18

So sorry gilly to read of this setback. You are both in my thoughts and prayers flowers

flowersfromheaven Tue 28-Jan-20 09:59:27

Good Morning all, It keeps trying to rain with a bit of sleet but its very cold here in Sheffield, hopefully it will brighten up before I head over to see my DD and beautiful Granddaughter.
