Morning all! Perfect summer morning here in SE Hampshire and everything is looking lush and blooming fit to burst. Sweet peas going mad - definitely been a good experiment to grow them in a long tom pot. Easy day planned pootling and pottering.

Happy days everyone. sunshine

Wee bit overcast here in Fife -- hoping for fine weather later though !

Mamie Sun 22-Jun-14 07:34:45

Another perfect morning in Normandy. But I am going to kill that cuckoo if it doesn't shut up soon.

Good morning all!

Lovely bright, sunny and warm start to the day here in North Leicestershire. I hope it is the same in Hemel Hempstead as it's DGD4's Thanksgiving Service today.

I'm slightly worried as DS1 just rang to say that he was ill in the night and was scared he was having another stroke. He seems ok but won't be going to HH with us. We will call in to see him on the way.

My other worry us that the Idiot will turn up and I will not be allowed to bop him! grin

Enjoy your days everyone sunshine

Mamie, we have a cuckoo clock that only plays when it is light. At thus time of year it sings from five o'clock which seems to be a signal for every blooming pigeon in the area to coo outside out bedroom window!

Good morning all . It's bright, sunny and already quite warm here in Northumberland. I'm waiting for a load of logs to be delivered in readiess for winter.

Mamie Sun 22-Jun-14 07:52:46

Kitty, I think the cuckoo shortage manifests itself here in the fact that there is only one, who has been plaintively cuckooing all day since March. At the moment it is light here until 11pm which doesn't help.
Have a lovely day with your family and hope your DS is OK.

Good morning everyone, and again a beautiful morning here on the south coast. I just wonder if the pigeons ever get sore throats - they seem to go on and on and on..........all day, it is odd however, because I have found as soon as I happen to look at the one which is doing all the cooing, the cooing stops, they seem to know! Anyway, hope your DS1 is well kitty, and you all enjoy your days.

Good morning everyone. It looks like a bright start to a hopefully, sunny day.
There's a 'party in the park' happening down by the river, with lots of stuff going on, so I do hope it's a success.

kitty I hope your ds is ok, what a worry for you.
Feel free to take out your stress on the 'idiot', just don't let anyone hear you!

Have a good day sunshine

Good morning all! I was forced out of bed earlier than I would have liked by the bleeping of my empty phone battery.
I am now about to have a brew and some breakfast. .

AlieOxon Sun 22-Jun-14 08:37:21

Mornin ' all.
I wish there was a cuckoo here to shut up....looks like another hot day.

I finally met my greatgrandson yesterday! 4 weeks old - and very fast asleep.
Yes, I did get to hold him.

Dragonfly1 Sun 22-Jun-14 08:43:23

Morning from s Staffs; lots of sunshine here - and I'm stuck indoors most of the day on a course! How is that fair? Kitty I hope your son is ok, enjoy the Thanksgiving, hope all goes well.

Agus Sun 22-Jun-14 08:46:18

Another sunny day. This is wonderful. But it is magpies that are wakening me in the morning. Right outside our bedroom window. I could cheerfully strangle them!

Hope iit's not another stroke kitty. Your poor DS

As for the 'idiot' ignore, ignore! If he is anything like the idiot we have to put up with, it's like talking to a brick wall! Hope he doesn't turn up.

NanKate Sun 22-Jun-14 08:48:43

Had the 2grandsons for the weekend - full on fun but it is only 8.48 and feels like midday! Will have a nap when they go after lunch. smile

Aka Sun 22-Jun-14 09:03:15

Any GNetters living near the A64? Better get down there PDQ and take your knives, forks, Yorkshire puddings, etc as the police attempt to clear up a giant spill of Instant Mash!!

AlieOxon Sun 22-Jun-14 09:08:19

Yes Agus - I also have magpies...very noisy and either two or three young ones just fledged. I feel like they have taken over the garden!

whenim64 Sun 22-Jun-14 09:09:32

Got my two grandsons to stay the night, too. At 8.30, I opened the sitting rooms curtains before making breakfast whilst they were snapping photos of the dog on my iPad. Heard much giggling and a little voice said 'let's put it on YouTube hahahaha!' Good job I looked........a video of me, looking like I've been dragged through a hedge backwards, in nightie and dressing gown. They know where the icons are to click on to YouTube. In panic, I asked if I could watch it again, deleted it and explained children are not allowed to put anything on YouTube, let alone videos that nanas and parents haven't taken. Little rascals! They thought it was hilarious grin

Lona Sun 22-Jun-14 09:12:32

Oh when That made me giggle grin little monkeys! (Oops, am I not allowed to say that?)

annodomini Sun 22-Jun-14 09:17:24

Sunny morning here. I am woken every morning by jackdaws of which there is a large flock in Poynton. There are also rowdy rooks and crows. The big corvids discourage the small birds which is a pity but there's not much I can do about it.

Ariadne Sun 22-Jun-14 09:19:34

when grin

Never mind cuckoos and magpies - it's ** seagulls that wake me up now all the windows are open. They are so loud, and always seem to be squabbling. We are about ten minutes from the sea, but they always seem to start the day up here!

NfkDumpling Sun 22-Jun-14 09:20:15

Overcast at the moment but the forecast says it should brighten later. Hope so, I'm on tea duty at our town's open gardens day.

kittylester Sun 22-Jun-14 09:22:42

Just been to see ds and he seems fine and is going to gave a lazy day. Ivevtold him to text me hourly!!

Now, only the Idiot to deal with!! grin
