Morning all. Lovely and sunny again here. We are off out to coffee with friends later, and I shall enjoy it more now that I don't have to make appointments to have tests done. Meanwhile, I shall gird my loins and go and beat the bank around the ears, have a chat with someone. Hopefully not the sulky miss on desk duty yesterday.

Morning all.
Here in the Tyne Valley the sky is overcast and I'm hoping it will brighten up. We had rain yesterday so a sunny day would cheer me up. DS is coming for his lunch as he does every Thursday, sausage casserole is on today's menu. Laundry to finish off today, but that's all.
Have a good day all.

Good morning, I am still in bed and loathe to get going today even though it is going to be a lovely day.
Yesterday GD and I bought most of Lakeland's cake baking equipment and she spent all afternoon creating a novelty cake. I was only needed for hot ovens, sharp knives and electric mixer but today I can hardly walk for muscle pain.
GD took her creation home to the delight of her younger sibling.

Good morning, the weather is improving in Cardigan hoping to persuade the family to have a walk today, I would like to go mackerel fishing greyduster but no-one else is keen.
Have a good day everyone.

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. A grey start on the Cornish coast but it may brighten later. I need it to be v-e-r-y calm today as we are going mackerel fishing, and I do not do small -ish- boats! This is GS’s idea and like a good granny I am going along with it! Have a good day folks.

Good morning from sunny Colchester. The heatwave is due back this afternoon, another few 30 degree days.
No lawn to mow here Chaos, although there are a few green tufts poking through the hay.

Morning all!

Lovely sunny morning here on the south coast but set to get hotter over the next few days. Good excuse to stock up with Magnums which we did on our early morning supermarket trip. Back home, unpacked, all put away and now having breakfast.

Have a good day folks and enjoy the sailing Nfk!

Good Morning all

Dull and cloudy here in the Black Country, but still very warm.

Arrived home yesterday from Wales. Later today we are off to Cheddar camping, and seeing Paloma Faith at Glastonbury Abbey grounds Saturday evening. Meeting up with friends there so looking forward to a lovely weekend.

Have a lovely day everyone.

A sunny Good morning from N. Bucks.
Off to local park with DD and DGS2 for the morning.
DD3s dogs arriving early afternoon for a few days as they are going away.
Enjoy Thursday all.

Good morning all. A beautiful sunny start here on the NE coast . It’s Friday eve so my mood is gradually improving .

Glad to hear your little GD is keeping those workmen in check MaryDoll ? enjoy choosing new kitchen units ( I’m a teensy but jealous I have to admit ).

Have a good Thursday everyone x

Marydoll Thu 02-Aug-18 07:18:44

Morning Kate, we really should synchronise watches. I should be drying my hair, not on my tablet. I've just bought a pair of shoes in the Clark's sale into the bargain.
Brunette, feel free to go in my place.?

Brunette10 Thu 02-Aug-18 07:11:20

Morning everyone, not so nice here today in NE Fife and I would say rain later on. DGS was just such a delight yesterday, he was on form, it makes such a difference. Marydoll I hope you are successful with your kitchen units, my kind of thing - love it! Enjoy your day everyone.

NanKate Thu 02-Aug-18 07:04:59

Hello Mary we seem to have the same time clock ?

NanKate Thu 02-Aug-18 07:03:53

Good morning Mick and All.

Hotting up noticeably in South Bucks today.

Off for blood tests this morning.

I need to write 50 times - I must not spent too long on my IPad when I should be getting up and dressed. ?

Marydoll Thu 02-Aug-18 07:03:02

Good morning Mick and the early birds.☺️
It is pouring again in Glasgow.
We have DGD again to day, but she is delightful and absolutely no problem to look after.
She is two and a half and wandered into the kitchen yesterday to ask the workmen how they were getting on and what had they done with HER toilet.
We are off to look at kitchen units☹️This is Mr Marydoll's idea of torture.
Have a good day everyone, whatever your plans.

Good morning.
A tad overcast today. Hopefully it will stay cloudy, as the grass badly needs cutting and I find it is so much easier to do when not in hot sun.

kittylester Thu 02-Aug-18 06:54:49

Morning Mick, nfk.

It's a bright sunny start in North Leicestershire too. Off to Sainsbury's first thing, a cup of tea with a friend this afternoon and cricket this evening.

Enjoy your days everyone!

NfkDumpling Thu 02-Aug-18 06:29:35

Morning Mick, morning All

All bright and sunny here in the north of Norfolk.

We stayed on our little boat Tuesday night and very nice it was too. Himself fished and I read The Girl from Aleppo right through!

Today we’re off to help run the line at our sailing club regatta. We don’t race. It’s far too cutthroat for us.

Good Morning Everyone,
Another bright sunny start here in Brackley this morning, day out again today, usual shop etc .
