Good morning Mick and a very happy new year to you and all gransnetters.

Mild and wet here.

Happy new year to all fellow gransnetters, still pitch dark here but think it might be raining as cat has come in after his morning stroll looking very wet.
Hope everyone has a nice day.

Good morning to everyone and a Very Happy New Year.
Hopefully we will be able to get back to normal soon.
If I watch another Review of the Year I will scream!

Calm and dry and a bit warmer today.

Hope 2015 is kind to you all.

Good morning and Happy New Year to you all.

It's dull here in North Leicestershire!

I agree Brenda - another review and I'll scream too!!

Not much planned today except a bit of tidying.

Happy New Year everyone! smile

I'm cooking a late lunch for DD and family today so was in the kitchen making a lemon merinue at 7am (DsiL's favourite) and have just set DH to peeling potatoes. I made Antony Worrall Thompson's Christmas Casserole last night (and set the table) so it is just to heat up. For my darling vegetarian GD I've done roasted spiced butternut squash, with goats cheese to scatter on top when it's heated through. Hope it all goes down well!

The frost has gone thankfully but it's a bit gloomy and dank here on SE Hampshire coast. I hope all your days are peaceful, healthy and happy. sunshine

Good morning all and Happy New Tear to all. I am still lazily abed so can't give a weather report,just know it is dark. Dinner with ex DiL and her family today. So nice to keep the relationship alive and well.

Good morning and a Happy New Year to everyone. Raining and blowy here in Fife. Won't be venturing far today!

Morning all and happy 2015! May it be prosperous and interesting smile

I couldn't believe my eyes reading on Twitter this morning that some parts of the UK may reach 15° today (e.g. Bude). A "balmy" start to the year (if like my husband you consider it warm once double figures are reached!)

It is very dark here in NW London but it appears to be dry. Keep your fingers crossed that I can sell my old car today- my "new" car looks beautiful sitting outside. It was owned by somebody more elderly and decrepit than myself and she had managed to run up 1643 miles on the clock in 2 years!!!! It is a new car nicely run in for me.

White Rabbits, Good morning to you all, and Happy New Year. We have a very dull morning here on the coast, but no frost, and sleeping late has put all my plans for the day on hold. Enjoy your days

Happy New Year all - thankfully the thaw yesterday cleared away all the snow and ice and although its dull and overcast so much better than all that greying mucky snow and treacherous ice. I have started 2015 with a cold and cleared away all the Christmas decorations and general paraphernalia. House all tidy, washing done , duck (from M & S ready prepared) for dinner.

thatbags Thu 01-Jan-15 09:15:16

Morning all! I heard fireworks in my sleep. We have a deluge of rain this morning. I shall work on a temari.

daffydil Thu 01-Jan-15 09:17:22

It was so overcast at 7.30 this morning that I thought it was much earlier. Still very dull but mild and moderate breeze.

Happy and healthy 2015 to everyone.

hildajenniJ Thu 01-Jan-15 09:18:09

A very happy he year to you all.
Good morning from a cloudy but fairly bright Northumberland. I am alone at present. When I rose, I discovered a note in the kitchen from DH. He has gone to WORK. Apparently the Co-op has no staff,he says he will be back for lunch! hmm

appygran Thu 01-Jan-15 09:24:39

Good morning and a Happy New Year to you all. Much milder but overcast here in Chester. Not a lot planned for today apart from the usual walks with the dog and maybe a little quilting this afternoon while catching up with some radio programmes. Mr A will potter around and do his own thing as usual.

Hope you all have a good day.

It's mild and damp in Liverpool which is our normal weather for any time of the year off to daughter's for tea with the grandchildren later today chaotic but fun.

Juliette Thu 01-Jan-15 09:38:49

Happy New Year, sent with love and good wishes from me in N.Staffs. It is grey and miserable here so not very inspiring. DH off to football again this afternoon, lucky chap!

Ariadne Thu 01-Jan-15 09:41:32

Happy New Year to all you lovely gransnetters - languishing in bed this morning at the Radisson Blu hotel Glasgow. Checkout not until 12-1 thank goodness. I just loved the evening here full of entertainment and meeting new friends. Must get up now so we can enjoy the all day breakfast. We'll fast sometime soon. Have a great day everyone. smile
