Art class this morning which I always enjoy. A male (fully-clothed!) model today. Weather is a bit chilly but could be a lot worse. Daughter in New York has been putting up with snowy weather.
Hope everyone had a lovely day!

Just logged on as we left the house early, 7.30, to visit my daughter. It was freezing and I had 5 layers on and clutched a hot water bottle. Came home in the rain and now settled in front of the wood burner with a cup of coffee and dinner cooking. It was not a good visit to my daughter, she seems to be getting worse mentally but we did manage to give the garden a final tidy.

Good Morning everyone. Still smoky and gloomy outside, although the sun will be struggling through in a few minutes. I have a massage later this morning, hopefully it will help relieve some of my aches and pains. We plan on going out for dinner this evening, so a relaxed day for me.

Good Afternoon everyone, and a big hello to gillybob from a fellow northeasterner! Wild and windy here in North Shields, but sun making valiant efforts to break through. Going out shortly to post eldest son’s birthday present. All of my children’s birthdays are at this time of year. Very bad planning!

Good afternoon from a bright and sunny Lancaster, here in the NW of England. Cold and breezy but really strong sunshine.

By the time I post this, it will probably be Good afternoon.
So hi to Mick, Annie and all here. Had a Dr’s appointment this morning, got a cancellation so that was good. More tablets prescribed ?
Anyway, it is cold and sort of rain/ sleet here now.
Pensionpat, your toy stall sounds lovely, but lots of work. I hope it goes well, and you raise lots of money for a good cause.
To all those with aches and strains, go gently and coddle yourself.
Off to volunterring this afternoon, which I greatly enjoy.
Have a good day one and all.

Good morning everyone. I’m new to these posts. I think since it’s been a topic added to the ‘main list’ it came to my attention and what a lovely idea - to hear little snippets about local weather/plans (or none) for the day ahead. That said, sorry to read MawBroon that you’re feeling low today. I’m sure we all feel for you & send a hug.
I’m an hour ahead of U.K. time over here in Malaga. It chucked it down with rain throughout last night and up until 9am here this morning but there’s plenty of hot sunshine here now! We have no particular plans today - reading on our balcony behind a row of closed glass ‘curtains ‘ will probably be the order of the day. We’ve just enjoyed a bacon butty and DH is making us both a cup of coffee.
Hope you all have a good day - whatever your (very diverse) plans.

Morning all! Am still in my bed, thanks to sciatica. Didn't sleep much and this is where I'm comfortable. Running out of pain killers so shall HAVE to go to chemist later.

Mapleleaf Tue 20-Nov-18 11:03:19

Good morning.

Greyduster has our weather spot on. It's not a day for spending in the garden, that's for sure!
Got some chores to do this morning and then a friend calling for coffee this afternoon.
Hope those of you feeling under the weather or tired soon feel a bit brighter.
Good look with the pop up stall, pensionpat. Let us know how it went.
Good luck, NemosMum.

Good morning all. Rained overnight in Anglesey, grey skies to the west but blue with fluffy white clouds to the east.
Warmer than yesterday, no condensation on windows. Bought gold spray paint yesterday, thought I’d make some table decorations for the season not to be mentioned yet.
Have a good day all x

NemosMum Tue 20-Nov-18 10:09:22

Morning All from a very cold blustery and squally Newcastle. About to try and set up my new Fitbit (old one misbehaving). This afternoon I'm taking a neighbour to Maggie's Cancer Care for the first time. I find her very difficult, so wish me luck!

Nana3 Tue 20-Nov-18 10:05:44

Morning all. Restless night and read to pass the time. Looking dull in Lancashire sounds like it's the same everywhere. Staying home today.
Best of luck pensionpat.
Have a good day everyone.

Good morning All x
North West rather nippy this morning,very bracing.
Chicken soup on the go as D is calling in at some point.
Hope all is well with everyone.

Good morning from Malta. It’s raining today but still warm.
Not a lot planned for today apart from having my nails done and visiting a friend who is in a care home.

Maw, I’m sorry you are feeling blue. Hope your spirits will improve as the day goes on.flowers

A very late good morning from a wet and windy NE coast . I have the children on overnights this week so mornings are even more manic than normal . Just arrived at work looking and feeling like a wreck !

Lynne59 Tue 20-Nov-18 09:25:33

Good morning all. It's sunny but cold here in Nottingham. I've been doing washing and ironing, then I've got more boring chores to do, before "work" later (which isn't work, it's more like a nice social gathering) at the day centre I run. Zumba tonight. Hope you all have a good day.

aggie Tue 20-Nov-18 09:20:22

Good Morning all, porridge cooling , drinking coffee to wake me up . It is very breezy out there but lovely and bright . Not a leaf left on the tree. The bare branches are showing off the bare bones of the garden , I need more garden lights as that will be the only decorations this end of year ( see how I avoided that word ?)

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Hope everyone has a good day x

Good Morning everyone, I could have started this thread at 2.50a.m which is when our dog woke me up.. emitting from both ends.. sorry!?am absolutely shattered but it's my stint in the hospice shop today so can't let them down!
Weather not helping my mood either here in Lancashire..wet&grey&cold
What a depressing post..sorry
Do all enjoy your day!! ?

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!

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,

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.

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.

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.
