Good morning Mick and all. It's been raining overnight in Glasgow and doesn't look too promising for the rest of the day..
Dentist today☹️ and DH is about to start painting the new extension with plaster paint, before the rest of the work continues.
We did eventually get the tiles yesterday, a stressful day which included getting a phone call in the tile shop informing me that a fiend had died, ?a meltdown by DGD in the tile shop, her needing the toilet in the tile shop and no toiet available.available. Hopefully today will be happier.
Happy birthday to Mr Kitty.
Enjoy your cooler weather, those who live down South.

Good morning Mick Gaga Nina kitty and all to follow. What a brilliant idea (the bus passes 50p charge) a long time overdue and as you say could protect vital bus services.

The promise of a lovely day here on the NE coast today which is good because I have the children to entertain. No (real) work today for me. Thank goodness for the little tent in the garden.

Have a good Tuesday everyone.

Morning Mick, Gaga, kitty and all.

Seems cooler in Kent and the sky is not so bright this morning but it's early and we are forecast a scorcher.

My besties birthday today too kitty though she is a spring chicken at 55.
Happy Birthday to your DH.
Enjoy your days people.

Morning gaga - I'll drop my ironing round, it's only duvet covers!

Morning Mick, morning all.

North Leicestershire is still sticky but we are told to expect some rain later in the week.

DH's birthday today - he's 73!!!

Last day of helping on this particular Carer's course for me but a new one .starts next week in a different part of Leicestershire.

I have long thought that there could be some sort of charge for bus passes and have wondered if a yearly charge of say £10 would work. I hope you are successful Mick - could you post a link?

Morning Mick and everyone!

It's a sunny start again here on the south coast but we are told it will be cooler from tomorrow.

We shall have no water today from 9am to 4.30pm as they connect us up to the new water main which has been installed to serve the new houses being built opposite. I am sure we shall cope!

Need a visit to the library and a bit of shopping today and before that a pile of ironing awaits.

Have a good day folks!

Good Morning Everyone,
Its the start of another hot balmy day , usual day out with sufficient water with me.
Yesterday , put together a Gov. e-petition as to changing law as to bus passes with a 50p minimum contribution towards the fare to help maybe stop unnecessary bus cuts .
