Good Morning Everyone,
Its twilight but bright and dry this morning in Brackley.
Buckingham Palace, an experience security is high there nothing left unchecked, it was a slow delayed process as to group entry.
Carvery at Strand Palace after was good.

Morning Mick and everyone.

Clear blue sky in Kent and much cooler. I've swapped to my winter dressing gown.
Had a trouble free journey via M25 yesterday to meet friends and DH and a very tasty pub lunch.
Mick hope it didn't spoil your enjoyment.

Morning Mick, morning all.

It's cold but bright in north Leicestershire but we are off to Hemel Hempstead to see DD2 and DGD2 & 4. Lunch out then school pickup.

Glad you had an enjoyable day yesterday,*Mick*! You stirred up happy memories as we stayed at the Strand Palace on our way home from our honeymoon in Rome nearly 48 years ago and also enjoyed a fabulous carvery!

Morning Mick and everyone!

It's a lovely clear sky and glorious pink sunrise here on the south coast. Definitely chilly though.

Glad your Buck House trip went well Mick. I went to a reception in the 1980s and security was tight even then. I suppose it has to be given the world we live in.

Chores today after the celebrations yesterday for eldest DGD's 17th birthday. A happy family day, which was much enjoyed.

Have a good day folks. sunshine

Good morning Mick and all who follow. I'm glad you had a good trip Mick.
DH was up at the crack of dawn, I don't what he is taking, but I will have some of it.
I went downstairs to get some of my medication, looked out and all the washing was blowing in the wind, my breakfast was set out and when I got back upstairs, the bed had been made.
I may as well get up, read some GN and enjoy the peace and quiet.
Some chores today, including chasing up the blacksmith, who should have installed the new handrails weeks ago.
Have a good day everyone.

Morning, Kitty, Nina and Gaga grin.
I'm so slow or perhaps I should just not witter on!

Good morning everyone (evening and wine time for me). Yesterday was gloriously sunny and today started out well. The clouds have moved in and I suspect that it is going to rain tonight – not, I hope, the classic New Zealand deluge that floods large parts of my garden and drive, but a gentle and persistent rain that waters my lovingly nurtured plants.

Greetings to all Gransnetters in the UK.

Good morning everyone, glad you had a nice day yesterday Mick. Nice and bright here in Northampton this morning, but a bit chilly.
I too am in my winter dressing gown now and have given in and put the heating on this morning! Was hoping to hold off till October.
Off to yoga this morning and then coffee together afterwards and then a brisk walk home.

Morning all ! Chilly as far as I can tell , an extra fleece on the bed tells a tale

Good Morning from a bright, sunny but very chilly Black Country (just back from taking partner to train station)

Today will be spent finishing off packing as we are flying to Malaga tomorrow sunshine

Had a lovely family meal Saturday day night for my 65th, not often both children DGD's, Mum, my brother SIL and niece all get together in one place, plus my friend came too.

I think they arrested someone at Buckingham Palace yesterday Mick for possession of a weapon?

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning Mick, Annie and everyone from a gloriously sunny Birmingham! No heating on yet- my apartment is very warm, although I have put the underfloor heating on in the bathroom. I’ve an appointment at the Women’s Hospital to get the results of my biopsy, then, regardless, we will go into Birmingham for a nice lunch.

Marydoll Mon 24-Sept-18 07:37:12

Best wishes, Dora, I hope all goes well with your appointment.

Good morning from a sunny but cold Colchester. Digging out sweatshirt and long joggers for walking netball this morning. At least it's dry.

Humbertbear Mon 24-Sept-18 07:39:55

It’s been a very busy weekend in North London. I had a friend staying and she swam a mile in the Serpentine on Saturday and I got very wet and cold. She goes home, back north, today.

NanKate Mon 24-Sept-18 07:46:55

Morning Mick and All.

Beautiful sunny but cold day in South Bucks.

Had a lovely time with DS and DGSs this past weekend, very tired now but it was worth it. Little one in tears again after our departure.

No food in the cupboard so must stock up PDQ.

Best of luck today Dora.

Glad you had a good day Mick.

A sunny Good morning to all from N. Bucks.
Fairly quiet day for me. DH is at golf so a nice day of crafting after I have given DD2 a lift to the airport.
Hope all goes well Dora.

NannyJan53 Mon 24-Sept-18 08:04:48

Hope it all goes well today Dora

Good Morning everyone, nice day here in Fife, albeit chilly. Meeting a friend for catch up today. Trying to phone docs at this very moment and driving me mad. Just need to get appointment for very sore arthritic finger. Marydoll what a lovely surprise, make the most. Glad all went with your trip Mick yesterday. Had better go getting annoyed now! Have a great day everyone.

Good morning all from a bright, sunny East Northants. Up late after a very restless night - I think it was putting the winter duvet on that did it! Not sure what my day will bring but it's too nice to stay indoors. Hope everyone's day goes well.

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Hope everyone has a good day x
