Good Morning Everyone,
Its dark, but dry this morning could be milder outside this morning.
Yesterday , saw plenty of Xmas activity in Bicester and Buckingham.
Mind you Friday , I popped into Banbury ,and the bus journey took 1hr and 20 minutes for a 10 mile journey, thanks to a bridge diversion , and gridlock getting into Banbury by further roadworks.

Good morning everyone from a bright and mild Birmingham. I slept in this morning- I always do on Sundays, must be a hangover from working life.
Lunch out with friends this lunchtime. It’s an early Christmas do before one of us jets off to Abroad for Christmas.
Enjoy the ballet, Maw, it was wonderful. Which little boy is your grandson? They were all excellent.

Good morning from the NE coast . A very warm night last I night had to get up and open the windows wide. A bit housework this morning then possibly off to get our Christmas tree (I would wait another week or even 2 but the DGC are insistent) .

Have a good Sunday everyone.

Good morning all from a mild, sunny East Northants. Slept in this morning and thankfully my back is much better after a quiet day indoors yesterday. Must do some shopping this morning ready for family visitors tomorrow. Hope its a good day for everyone.

Good morning from Colchester where the sun is in and out. It is mild and dry at the moment.
Roast dinner today but no other plans...lovely lazy Sunday.

Salutations all from a slightly bright with a touch of frost Aberdeenshire. Am still in bed as I hit the town early, yesterday but so did everyone else! Anyway, knickers from Santa have been purchased. Off to a carol concert this afternoon at the local stately pile. Have a good day all.

Have a wonderful day Maw. You must be excited to see your DGS perform in such a wonderful ballet

Lovely morning here, and I've seen several trees in blossom, so must be nearly spring!

Grey and dull in Sussex today but at least the rain has stopped, for now. We have my grandsons other grandparents coming down from London today so all going out together for a meal in a country pub, and a glass or 2 of Prosecco ?, a perfect winter Sunday.

Morning everyone. Dull, dry but warm today. We are going to a Christening and I have decided it is warm enough to wear a dress instead of wearing just about every piece of clothing I own! Trouble is I have two massive bruises come out on on my face after dental surgery. OH is is worried people might think its his fault, well it is in a way he paid for the surgery. Have a happy day everyone.

Good morning
A lot milder here today and the sun is trying to make an appearance, but I’m not sure for how long.
Off to the Christingle service shortly.
Enjoy your day. tchsmile

Good morning everyone.
Damp and threatening sums up the weather.
My careful cementing washed right out again on the south facing wall, but set hard on the west facing wall. Glass half full. Lots more rain to come this week.
A neighbour just called to say one of the car windows was open. All night. The passenger seat is soaked but the dashcam is still there, so is the expensive clean air contraption my daughter bought for the sake of my little grandson in this polluted city, and so was the car. Glass 95% full.

Morning all!

Just had a pleasant read here with a couple of reasons to smile thrown in. Thanks to contributors always. Just off to church but may well return for a second dip later.

Have an enjoyable day all, whatever you're up to.

starbox Oh wow!!! Beautiful picture. I have just got in from the greenhouse checking on the status of plants in there for the winter, my hydrangda cutting which are two years old now are starting to bud!!! Just hope they survive if the weather turns very cold. I have no heating in there but plenty of bubble wrap and fleece to use if necessary.

After the rain, it’s a bright sunny morning here, but quite chilly (at least for California!) Big job for the day is to get the Christmas tree up and sort out the lights which we know need quite a few replacements from last year. Young IT guy coming over this evening to hopefully fix our computer, so I’ll prepare dinner for the three of us. Your Sunday daytime is nearly done in the UK, hope you all had a good one. Mine is just beginning?
