Good morning Mick. It’s dark and cold here in Birmingham. I don’t know why I was awake so early this morning, but now I’m up I am having my early morning cuppa and can make an early start on my prep for aU3A meeting this afternoon.
Have a good day out- I will be in your neck of the woods on Friday.
I hope everyone has a good day.

Morning everyone. I’ve never been on GN this early but have been lying awake since 5am. We’re setting up our pop-up toy stall today for opening on Thursday. I’m anxious because we’ve had so many donations it’s overwhelming and exciting. My house/garage is overflowing, as is my sons garage, another friends shed, and we’ve already taken to the market about 10 car loads over the last week or so. And the donations are still coming. I’m not panicking. Its going to be fabulous. But I’ll feel better tonight!

Morning Mick, DoraMarr, everyone.

It's very cold in north Leicestershire this morning. Bitting and bobbing this morning for me and then out for tea with a friend this afternoon. We go to a nearby farm shop so we can also stock up on goodies.

Morning pat - I hope today goes well.

Good Morning Mick, Dora, pat, kitty and everyone.

It's a cold, dark morning here on the south coast and the forecast is for sleet this afternoon. I need to get a dental appointment for a grumbling back tooth which I keep thinking will keep quiet if I ignore it. It isn't doing so needs attention. Hey ho.

Hope the day is a good one for us all.

Good morning to all from very chilly Devon. Have poked my nose above the duvet to write this but intend to go straight back there now. Would love a cup of tea though, maybe I’ll ring for room service ..........

Morning Mick and All.

Cold and grey again in South Bucks.

Still coughing but def a bit better today. Unsure if I will go to Rummykub.

Do let us know how your Sale goes PensionP.

I do love farm shops Kitty especially if it involves coffee and cake.

Morning All

Grey clouds scudding overhead in Norfolk. But the sky is clear above them.

Nothing planned today apart from a bit of baking.

Good month morning from a still dark Northampton, supposed to be very chilly today.
Will be a day at home as I have to wait in for a package that will need signing for. Making another Christmas cake though, as the loaf tin one I made on Sunday I simply had to try, as I thought I had overcooked it. I hadn't..... But it was delicious, so I've sliced it and frozen it. Luckily, still got enough ingredients in to have another go.
Neighbour is coming round this morning to investigate water in the cupboard under the kitchen sink - I think it's probably the seal around the plughole as none of the waterpipes seem to be leaking. Hope that's all it is. Will give neighbour some of the trial run Christmas cake!
May be booking myself a river cruise today as a birthday treat for April next year!
Hope everyone has a good day.

Good Morning from a very cold Black Country.

Just back from taking Partner to train station and it is much colder than yesterday!

U3A Tap group this morning, then tackle ironing this afternoon.

Hope your sale goes well Pensionpat

Have a good day everyone.

I shall let you know about stall. It actually runs until Christmas Eve, and is a lot of fun. But today the volume of toys to shift, clean, check batteries, assemble and display is daunting. We have help.

Good Morning to everyone from a dark and damp Fife. Not sure what our weather is going to be today but hopefully no rain. Pensionpat - Good Morning! I hope all goes well for you today - exciting! Everyone so far seems to be in good spirits. I hope everyone has a good day - Good Morning to all those who follow - take care.

Morning Mick, morning All from a cold, windy and grey corner of Somerset. Thinking of a bus trip to our nearest city for a wander, Christmas market is underway, usually some tempting food. Just need to summon some energy. Sounds quite an undertaking pensionp, wishing you well. Hope Tuesday is kind to everyone.

Pittcity Tue 20-Nov-18 07:49:29

Good morning to all from a grey, damp and very cold Colchester. Rain is forecast to clear later.
I have yet another pile of ironing to tackle.....otherwise a bits and bobs day.

GrannyGravy13 Tue 20-Nov-18 07:51:19

Goodmorning all ?

Cold, grey and windy in SE Essex.

Wallpapering in lounge should be finished today, the it's only carpet laying and putting the house back to normal, yippee!!!

Hope all goes well with your pop-up toy stall pat.

Have a peaceful Tuesday all ?

Good morning all and those who follow, it's dry, but grey and windy in Glasgow.
I'm late here this morning, I only woke up because DH was blundering about.I'm still barking and wheezing away.

A LIDl shop today, (I have yet another money off voucher ?), then off to meet friends for lunch. My friends will be delighted, as I have no voice and they will be able to get a word in edge ways for once! ?

What a huge undertaking Pat, nice to see you on the Good Morning Thread,
Blue45Sapphire, we had the same problem recently and it was the seal in the U bend. Good luck!
Have a good day, everyone. Kitty, I wish we had a farm shop near us. Maybe not, I would probably buy to much!

Good morning everyone from a wet and very windy Essex by the sea. It felt like it was blowing a gale all night !! I need to go and stock up at the butchers this morning and pick up my train ticket as off to stay with DD1 and 3 DGD'S next week . Then I think I will hibernate this afternoon. Hope Tuesday is good for everyone.

ninathenana Tue 20-Nov-18 08:06:42

Morning all
Grey and windy in Kent.
I 've just typed a longish post and lost it angry no time to repeat.
Have a god day.

MawBroon Tue 20-Nov-18 08:14:07

Good morning all from a grey and blustery corner of N Bucks.
Cleaner coming this morning which is good as I have woken up feeling very low and a bit fragile and having somebody in the house will oblige me to pin a happier face on.
Wishing you all a pleasant day.

Greyduster Tue 20-Nov-18 08:18:50

Good morning Michael and all GNs. Grey, wet, windy and cold in South Yorkshire, so an “in” day today. Plenty of domestic stuff to do and then I will spend a bit of time starting my next rug project, I think. Gaga sorry to hear about the toothache - few things worse. Hope you get an appointment. PensionP we must have a psychic connection - I was dreaming about just such a stall last night!! Have a good day, folks.

harrigran Tue 20-Nov-18 08:22:16

Good morning from a grey NE. We had heavy overnight rain and it looks cool out now.
It is our monthly antiquarian meeting this evening, always have an entertaining talk and slide show,

Willow10 Tue 20-Nov-18 08:30:24

Good morning from a cold but so far dry East Northants. I think we will be getting some rain later. Picking granddaughter and baby up for a bit of shopping and then a quiet afternoon before tonight's charity pub quiz for medical detection dogs. Keep warm everyone!
