Good Morning Mick, ScotinOz and everyone.

It's dark and mild here on the south coast and set to remain mild over the next day or so. Suits me just fine!

We don't take part in New Year celebrations but will take the decs. down today or tomorrow. Nothing else much planned. No doubt something will turn up.

Hope the day is a good one for us all.

Morning All

Dark, still, overcast and mild here in the north of Norfolk.

We may go for a birding walk this morning as we’ve nothing else planned.

For those who’ve already got there and those who will be up at midnight tonight - Happy New Year!

Morning all from North Leicestershire where it is dry and dark.

Up and off this morning as DH has a biopsy at 9.30.

Assuming DH feels ok, we are going to the theatre this afternoon and then home for a nice meal before watching the television until bedtime.

Enjoy your days everyone and best wishes for 2019.

Good morning all from a wet Glasgow.

We have DGD unexpectedly today, as DIL "forgot to tell" us that she and DS are working. We have had to change our plans, but as we love having DDG to bits, we don't mind.
I'm sitting here freezing with wet hair, DH forgot to adjust the heatting for DGD coming, so the house is freezing and something is wrong with the hot water. angry.

DGD will be demand pamcakes with SULTANAS for breakfast, so I had better get cooking.

Off out to pick up prescriptions and a wee bit of supermarket shopping.

Kitty, best wishes for your husband's appointment today.

Have a good Hogmanay all and best wishes for 2019.

Good. Morning everyone. Still dark but warm, here in my part of Wiltshire.
Off to my daughters later for per new years lunch. Will then take the grandchildren to the park.
Have a good day everyone.

Good morning everyone. Dry and very mild in East Northants. Son was not well enough to go to Coventry yesterday so I had a nice walk into the high street and replenished Christmas card stocks and gift tags in the sales. First time I've ever planned so far ahead! Visit to Waitrose this morning for coffee and bits. Family are all ailing with one thing and another so I'm keeping well away! Happy, Healthy and peaceful New Year to everyone.

Good Morning all
It is getting light and I can see it is quite cloudy.
I’ll wander to the shop later to get a few things and the walk will give me some fresh air.
Quiet evening I expect.

Enjoy the last day of this year ?

Good morning All x
Dark, quiet and seemingly dry here in the NW.

Tidying up to do today. Could do with dismantling the tree and decs while I'm at it as I've had enough now.

GS could possibly call today sometime depending how he feels with his dizzy spells since being punched. Worrying.

Good morning from a grey, mild Colchester. Rough night and have just finished a box of tissues. Good job we've no New Year plans. Mine will involve honey and lemon!

cornergran Mon 31-Dec-18 08:04:42

Morning Mick, Morning All from a cloudy corner of Somerset. Out and about today for a wander. Wishing your husband well kitty, hope the water is sorted mary. Wishing everyone a happy, healthy and calm new year.

Good Morning from a dry Fife. till dark outside but it looks pleasant enough. Have a busy day to day going over to the capital to return a gift which docent suit. Steak pie all made in preparation for tomorrow's feast with the family. Not a New Year fan but still like our tradition of a steak pie meal which I have carried on from my mum. I hope today is good for everyone for those feeling under the weather - take care.

Auntieflo Mon 31-Dec-18 08:18:32

Good morning Mick, AnnieB and all. Did you all survive the festivities, fairly unscathed ??
Family day tomorrow, so prepping for that today. DD will arrive and no doubt take me in hand and organise me to bits. Whatever would I do without her?
I have just taxed the car, so we are legal for the next 12 months again.
KittyL. wishing your DH well, and hope you both get to enjoy the theatre.
To all GN’s I wish you a very happy and peaceful new year

Good morning, a dry and grey day here in Northampton.

DGDs arriving in about an hour as mum and dad are back to work. Luckily they are the age now where they can amuse themselves for some time.

Nothing special planned for New Year's Eve or tomorrow; may open a bottle of fizz tonight and watch the fireworks on tv.

Hope everyone's day goes well.

Good morning from a dry and very mild Birmingham. I woke up late this morning! Two of my daughters and their little daughters are coming today. We’ll have a walk in the park, then lunch here, so I will have to go shopping for bread etc. I’ll probably spend NYE on my own, with an Italian film- it’s become a bit of a tradition.

DoraMarr Mon 31-Dec-18 08:32:15

I forgot to wish everyone well today. Micheal, I have some bills to pay too- but what a sense of satisfaction when it’s done!

mumofmadboys Mon 31-Dec-18 08:41:50

Happy new year to one and all. Hope DH's biopsy goes smoothly Kitty. I have had to cancel my new year plans as I am ill. Friends were coming to stay and we had a table booked. Instead another day on the couch for me.

harrigran Mon 31-Dec-18 08:47:59

Good morning, dry but overcast here.
I shall have a brief trip to the supermarket for fresh produce, first time since the 22nd. DH has topped up bread and milk when he has bought a newspaper. Coffee and cake at sister's this afternoon.
kitty hope the biopsy goes well, do not want to say too much but DH found it traumatic, he may need some TLC.

Anniebach Mon 31-Dec-18 08:50:58

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

I wish you all a happy and peaceful new year x

Grammaretto Mon 31-Dec-18 08:53:29

Good morning from the Scottish Borders where it's just getting a bit lighter. Maybe a walk later if sciatica will allow.
The family leave today which is sad because we loved having them around.
Best wishes to all GNers especially those who are sick or lonely at this end of year.

GrannyGravy13 Mon 31-Dec-18 08:56:16

Good morning all x

Have overslept after an extremely restless night.

Food shopping this morning, babysitting this evening.

Wishing you all good health, happiness and peace for 2019.

Greyduster Mon 31-Dec-18 08:59:29

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. Dull but dry in South Yorkshire. GS is still in bed so we have a slow start today. We’ll probably try and get a walk in at some stage. Kitty best wishes to Mr L today. No plans here for New Year, but may I wish everyone peace and happiness in 2019!

ninathenana Mon 31-Dec-18 09:02:46

Good morning everyone

Happy and Healthy New Year from a cloudy Kent.
GC here today, DD working this afternoon so we will all see in the New Year when she is home at 9.30pm. DH has to watch Jules Holland or it's not NY.
Good luck Mr. Lester

Cold here in France but sunny and bright. Not a good morning so far dealing with a slug problem - yuk.
All good wishes for a happy and healthy 2019 to everyone.
