Good morning from sunny but cold Wiltshire.
Got up long enough to refill my hot water bottle and make a hot drink, going back to bed to hibernate with the virus that's not an acronym for DH! . Fed up with coughing. Christmas has bypassed me this year!

Good morning from a blustery north east where the temperature is three degrees. I slept in this morning but had a late night with DD and SIL. Today will be relaxed.

Good morning to you all,we have a bright morning here, although cloud looming from the east (I think). We too had a quiet day yesterday, but then that is always the way with us, and our family will be coming later on today to help eat up the excess food I always seem to buy - been doing it for years now, don't suppose it will change.
Agree about the t.v. jusnoneed, we just caught up with some recorded bits and pieces, but why is it that the t.v. producers seem to think Christmas should be devoted to children's programmes?

Morning from Dorset. We had a little rain during the night but it's bright and sunny now. Just been out to feed the birds and it's still nice and mild.
Very quiet day yesterday, just like a normal Sunday really but with even worse tv than usual lol.
OH and son are off to the horse races later.

Good morning from France. Pale grey sky and everything is shrouded in a deep mist. A good morning for lighting a candle or two.
Hope you all have a good day.

Morning all from North Leicestershire.

It's fairly bright here but we have had some rain overnight.

We have Lester Boxing Day tomorrow so it's a good job that I am feeling more human and can get organised today.

Enjoy your days everyone.

Good morning from Colchester. We are still in bed with the curtains closed feeling a bit worse for wear.
Need to run the hoover and mop through and then decide whether to go out or slob out.

Cold here in Edinburgh. Has been a wild and windy night with more of the same forecast. Am contemplating a quiet day at home consuming the various leftovers and delicious treats while catching up on recorded TV programmes.

Good morning Mick and everyone. Looking fine today, hope it lasts.
Family coming today including Mum, hope she copes with the mayhem. I've booked a wheelchair taxi and will have to travel with her. OH will keep his eye on things in the kitchen. He's off to football this afternoon.
Have a good Boxing Day.

Morning all
We are promised a sunny day in N Kent. It's looking good so far.
H and I going for a stroll along the seafront later. Then a lazy day watching yesterdays recordings.

Good morning Michael, dry here in Liverpool, sun just appearing over the horizon, lazy day for me today, grandchildren coming tomorrow.

Not sure what its like here in South Yorks as the curtains are still firmly shut grin

Good morning Michael and thatbags in Liverpool it is dry but cloudy not too cold. Feeling lucky to still be alive and well.

Good morning, Mick, and all who follow. After a relatively mild day yesterday (10-11°), this morning it is much colder (<4°). The crescent moon and stars were clear when I ejected this morning's mouse and there is a sprinkling of snow on the ground. If I can see the hills later, I expect they will be white. Storm Barbara was noticable but nothing to talk about where we are. The wind sounds much stronger and gustier today.

Happy days, everyone!
