It's a beautiful day here on Gran Canaria where we have been since the beginning of December. Christmas preparations are happily much more low key than at home, it's lovely not to have it in one's face all the time. We are leaving today, sad although I gather it's unseasonably mild in London, almost summer I gather smile

Morning all! It's very mild and there's even a bit of sun here on the south east Hampshire coast. We are having a Christmas lunch at a local gastro pub today with DD DSiL DGD and DGS as they are off to Costa Rica tomorrow for two weeks.
Going back to theirs for presents etc. so I am wearing my festive tee- shirt! For the first time I can feel a bit of Christmas spirit beginning - hope it continues. tchgrin

Alea have a wonderful, joyous day and try and remember every bit of it - it always goes too quickly! flowerssunshine

Its bright and fresh in my part of Essex today and I have a particularly horrible cough and bug to go with it !!

Spoilt DH and had a Christmas cake made for him ( he's the only one who really likes it ) so off to collect that later, then some wrapping, some crafting and a sleepover with 2 small visitors whilst their Mum and Dad have a date night !!

In all the 25 years our DDs lived at home I NEVER remember a date night lol xx

Posted and then read back. I haven't made the Good Mornings lately, it seems I've missed a bit. Hope all who're under the weather recover speedily.

Morning All

Overcast and breezy here.

Cooking today. I made mince pies too early - they've all been ate. Ditto sausage rolls (and I froze them!).

Happy Saturday Everyone!

Good morning all.
Very mild here in mid Essex with some blue streaks in the sky and only a light breeze.
Delivery from Sainsbury's p.m. and having one of their ready meals tonight - the Charlie Bigham ones are excellent.
Enjoy the weekend particularly Alea.

Sitting in bed awaiting breakfast!! First time in goodness knows.

Sounds dry and feels mild out there.
Hope your cold is clear by Christmas Mock.

Good morning everyone and have a lovely time Alea!
It's blowing a gale here in Wiltshire, I've just taken the gobbydog for a walk. Her owner was rushed into hospital last night and is very poorly so we have a hairy lodger for the foreseeable future ?!
I'm taking bf's husband in to the hospital see her this morning so all previous plans are on hold.
Have a lovely day everyone.

Good morning from Walthamstow!tchsmile
I have had a great night's sleep and am thrilled and excited at the prospect of today's celebrations.
Oh one brief moment when I woke up and thought "Oh no, I've forgotten the wine, it's still in the garage" and then I remembered, No that's Christmas!!

Good morning from breezy Colchester. A southerly wind is due to bring record December temperature of 17c today. It has been too warm to wear my Christmas Jumper. May have to invest in a Christmas t shirt!

ninathenana Sat 19-Dec-15 08:17:06

Morning all
There's patches of blue sky here in N Kent. Paths are damp but I don't know if it rained or not.
I will wrap the presents today.

Slight Cheshire weather update. When I was in the kitchen just now getting my cup of tea I thought I saw hail snow or frozen rain tracking down the window.

Good morning from North Leicestershire where it is grey!

I have a shift in the library today and then more present wrapping!

Look after yourself Mick.

Good morning all.
Dark and mild here in Stockport I am still in bed so can say no more.
My cleaner is coming this morning to put me straight for family coming tomorrow,it won't take long for 2 teenagers to undo that good work but who cares?

Nelliemoser Sat 19-Dec-15 07:12:59

Good morning all. Windy and dark in Cheshire. I have not really looked out of the window to see any more.

cornergran Sat 19-Dec-15 07:07:46

Morning Mick, morning All. Still dark in our corner of Somerset. From what I can see it's windy but not currently raining. Housework day today. Keep warm and well Mick and Everyone. Hope Saturday is kind to you.
