This has turned into a Good afternoon. So Hello Mick and Annie and all who made it on time. I am doing this on my tablet, as I have had to change my email address on my new IPad. Nightmare.
Anyway, it is lovely and sunny here and I have two loads of washing blowing merrily.
Yesterday I got the start date for my radiotherapy treatment, just over two weeks time.
Enjoy the rest of your day folks

Good morning,
A beautiful morning here, and we are promised that today is the best day of the week.
Congratulations on your anniversary kitty wine and flowers. It would indeed be extra special if baby arrived today. smile
Sorry to read that you have had a bad night Bluesapphire and I hope that going through the photos and sorting them will bring you some comfort. flowers. You are so right about the “what ifs”, but we still think them, don’t we. Take care.
I’m sure that kitchen will be well worth the wait, Mary and you’ll get so much pleasure from it.
To all going on trips out today, have a lovely time. smile.

Happy anniversary Mr and Mrs KL, hope baby comes soon.
Have a good day everyone.

Good morning.
We too are promised a nice warm day. We are off to a NT property and then a wander around some seaside villages.
Congratulations Mr and Mrs Kitty and hope that baby arrived soon.

Good morning from a lovely sunny NE.
DH and I are off to Beamish museum for the day courtesy of GD's school, we won two one day tickets.
Happy anniversary kitty.

Good morning. Michael and all GNs. Another sunny day in South Yorkshire. Nothing much on the cards today except we have to go and get some tile trim and I must do some ironing. Happy anniversary to Mr and Mrs KLester??! While we were at the library yesterday DH picked up a book and waved it at me - “Divorce and Dissolution”. Not sure what is on his mind, but I had better behave! Have a good day, folks!

Morning all , beautiful sun has just lit the Acer tree

NannyJan53 Wed 10-Oct-18 08:15:46

Good morning from a bright and sunny Black Country.

All the holiday clothes were washed and dried yesterday, just ironing to do at some point this week grin

Looking forward to a GN meet in Birmingham today.

Wishing kitty and Mr Lester a very happy Anniversary! Hope you have a lovely celebration, and wouldn't it be a lovely present if the baby is born today!

Have a lovely day everyone.

Goodmorning everyone! Hoping the promised sunshine appears as I am taking a friend for an early autumn walk at RHS Wisley which is just up the road.
Good luck with trips out, kitchen replacement preparations and new arrivals! Have a good day all!

Good morning everyone x

That baby must be too comfy kitty hopefully the sweep might just start things off ?.

Congrats on your 48th wedding anniversary kitty what an achievement !

Good morning from a bright Northampton. Up at silly o'clock to distract myself from lying in bed thinking about all the 'what-ifs' around DH - what if he'd been referred earlier, what if I'd known then what I know now regarding his treatment, what if, what if....... can't change anything now. Just keeping myself busy this morning to take my mind off it; got some washing in, might start sorting some of DH's old family photographs dating back to the 1930s/40s, which I put in a big cardboard box in the cupboard under the stairs many years ago after clearing late PIL's house, and always meant to put in an album for future generations. I have ordered proper old-fashioned photo albums from Amazon, with photo corners and all! Off to the Errol Flynn filmhouse this afternoon to see a new film 'Puzzle', and looking forward to my glass of malbec and perhaps posh popcorn!
Congratulations Kitty on your wedding anniversary! Hope baby comes soon!

Willow10 Wed 10-Oct-18 07:50:18

Good morning all. I think We are due to get the nicest day of the week in East Northants, so I must make the most of it. Archery this morning, followed by coffee. Then a good leaf sweeping session this afternoon. I didn't get the puzzle board I was looking for in Hobbycraft, so I may have to order online. Wishing everyone a very pleasant day.

Morning All

Thick fog here in Norfolk. That bright fog which says the sun is shining above it. And very pretty it is too.

DH cleaned the caravan inside and out all on his own yesterday as I developed a really bad splitting headache and took to my bed. Much better this morning though, just a little nausea and the feeling I’d really like to wash my eyeballs in something cooling!

Happy Anniversary to Mr and Mrs Lister. Wouldn’t it be lovely if the baby arrives today - what the heck is a sweep?

Hope your cold lifts soon Pitt.

And the end is in sight for you then Mary if the kitchen is being fitted. It’ll all be worth it - eventually. Soon you’ll be putting everything back into nice new units and not be able to find anything.

Gagagran Wed 10-Oct-18 07:35:57

Morning everyone! Looks like a very pleasant day on the cards here on the south coast and it is not cold either.

Congratulations kitty- 48 years is worth a celebration lunch even if you have to wait a day or two. Maybe combine it with celebrating the arrival of the baby?

Mary good luck with the new kitchen fitting. Hope it is everything you hoped for.

NanKate have a lovely day out in Windsor. You may well see some of the preparations for the wedding. I wish the press would stop being so unkind to the two princesses. They can't help who they were born to nor how they looks and I bet Eugenie looks lovely in her wedding finery.

Morning corner!

Our cleaners are due this morning and it's choir this evening. DH is out with his bike club today and I have some correspondence to deal with.

Hope the day is a good one for us all.

kittylester Wed 10-Oct-18 07:30:25

I meant to ask about you DGS, nina, obviously got other things on my mind! So glad he had it and that it went well. Hope you get to see him.

ninathenana Wed 10-Oct-18 07:29:05

Bertie's comments grin
Have a good day

NanKate Wed 10-Oct-18 07:26:08

Morning Mick and All.

Due to be lovely warm weather here today I have persuaded DH to take a break from everything he is doing and come with me to Windsor for the day. There may be preparations going on for Eugenie’s wedding on Friday pity she won’t get today’s weather.

Kitty congratulations to you and your DH ??. I am not sure what a sweep is but if it produces your new grandchild that will be excellent.

Mary when all your home improvements are completed it looks as if you will be in a position to open up to the public, has the Scottish NT been in touch with you yet ? ?

Brunette10 Wed 10-Oct-18 07:20:33

kittylester Wed 10-Oct-18 07:18:56

Morningcorner and thank you.

I just checked in with DD who told me Bertie came in, said 'have you had it' DD said no and he said 'are you sure?' and checked in the bed!! grin

cornergran Wed 10-Oct-18 07:13:00

Morning Mick, Morning All. We’re due a sunny day which might help with the flu jab process we’re booked for hmm. Congratulations to you both on your anniversary kitty, wishing your daughter well too. Heaps of luck marydoll, it will all be worth it in the end. Hope Wednesday is kind to everyone.

kittylester Wed 10-Oct-18 07:04:52

Morning all from North Leicestershire! It's not raining and it's not cold!!

Our 48th wedding anniversary today but it is also school run day so no celebrating until we go out for Sunday lunch - possibly!

Enjoy your trip Mick if you decide to go.

Good luck marydoll! I think you'll need it!

Still no baby but DD is having a 'sweep' today. confused I don't think they had been invented when I had my babies.
