Dull and miserable in Brum. The postman brightened my day by delivering our Michael Bublé tickets. smile

Rather a dull day here in Staffordshire after an early glimpse of the sun.
Am going to my 'Move it or lose it' class this afternoon after being unable to go since mid November due to a chest infection but am feeling fit now and looking forward to it

Morning all, from a dull, cold Hampshire. Been up since 6 trying to get house back to looking like something normal or nearly normal!
Feeling better, so hopefully this is the last bit of this virus thing that I have had since before Christmas.
Take care and hope the day is good to you all

Good day one and all, the only word to describe the weather is damp and cold. Going to have a very easy day, done all I intend to do in the house so going out for a walk and coffee and then spend the rest of the day by the fire trying to get to get grips with knitting pair of socks on 4 needles.

Urmstongran thank you so much. I tried so hard not to cry but here I am again in tears. I know how much my daughter misses her siblings and their children, and me, and her sadness, which I can do nothing about, is what I find so painful.

Good morning all x

Woke up feeling better this morning after a horrendous headache all day yesterday.

Minerva hugs and sympathy, you have made memories over the festive season.

Going to the gym in a minute not looking forward to it but always feel better afterwards.

Morning Anniebach xx

Wishing all poorly GN's, Husbands and partners start on the road to improving x

Good morning, overcast and 6 degrees here in the NE.
I have been using Windows 10 for three years and it is fine but it came loaded on a high spec laptop. If trying to load on to an older computer you need at least 8 Gb of RAM.
Washer is on and the rest of the day will be bits and bobs. Guest bathroom still awaiting plumbing repairs.

Morning all from the very wild and windy Scottish Borders. Bin day today at long last. I don't think our rubbish has been collected since mid december. I've missed putting it out
Happy Birthday, belatedly Kitty. What a lovely time you've had

Urmstongran Mon 07-Jan-19 09:34:37

Big hugs Minerva this must be so hard on you. ?

Urmstongran Mon 07-Jan-19 09:32:58

Good morning everyone from sunny Malaga. It’s a gorgeous day already. Out with other ladies this afternoon for wine & laughter!

EllanVannin Mon 07-Jan-19 09:31:21

Good morning All x
Pretty dark here until about 8.30 this morning, but again,it's not cold. We've got away with it nicely so far ( mustn't speak too soon though )

Just cleaning and freshening everywhere today and a chance to tear up old papers/letters which have accumulated. Shredder broken so it'll be tedious.

Hope all is well with everyone wherever you are.
Roll on Spring !

Good morning from a warm but dull London.
Sorrow in our house as half of my grandchildren are on their way home to the other side of the world. My resident little grandson opened the bedroom door of the room where two of his cousins have been sleeping and burst into tears. I am fighting myself not to cry.
Lots to do so I will keep very busy today.

Brunette10 Mon 07-Jan-19 09:21:54

Good Morning everyone.from a very windy and wet Fife. Heavens above I cannot believe I have slept until this time, hate sleeping late but not sleeping recently has obviously caught up. Have quite a lot of chores to do today and I like getting started early, however one of the things I have to learn to do is not clock watch which I unfortunately still do even after a few years of retirement. Hope your day is good to you.

Susan56 Mon 07-Jan-19 09:20:12

Good morning everybody.Damp day in North Shropshire.I have diabetic eye screening this morning then diabetic clinic this afternoon.Such joy!On the bright side we are going to post all the forms off to apply for my husbands pensions,roll on May!

Morning All.
Belated birthday wishes Kitty!!!
Just walked the dog in foggy drizzle...now going to clean kitchen tiles which I loathe as it means moving everything!
Enjoy today whatever you are doing!!!

Nelliemoser Mon 07-Jan-19 09:07:13

Good Morning All OH is geting a bit better from his dreadful bronchitis , I now have a bad tickly sratchy throat and I am coughing.
I am now sneezing and really feeling fed up.
Still uniformly grey skies in Cheshire.

Marydoll Mon 07-Jan-19 09:05:06

Good morning Mick and all from a very wet Glasgow, but it's eleven degrees, so not as cold. smile

A bad night sleepwise, so I shall be pottering about today, as my joints are painful. It's no bad thing, as yesterday again, I went out to pick up a click and collect and came back hours later.
DGD spotted my car in the car park and the rest is history. That's the thing about having a yellow car. grin, everyone knows it's you!
It was such a lovely surpise to see her and she was so happy when she spotted me. It certainly made my day.

Good luck with Windows10 Mick, initially there were a lot of problems, but they seemed to have been ironed out.
Have a good day all.

Have a good day everyone.

Greyduster Mon 07-Jan-19 08:58:56

Good morning Michael and all GNs from a grey South Yorkshire. Mick I read that as you were having ten windows installed with help!! I woke up late in a haze of pain as if I had had something heavy pressing on me. Various domestics today before the school run this afternoon. Have a good day folks.

aggie Mon 07-Jan-19 08:49:51

Good Morning all ,peeked out and it was dark so back to bed

NannyJan53 Mon 07-Jan-19 08:30:27

Good Morning from another mild Black Country.

Partner never got out of bed yesterday, and he only drank water all day, no food, not even a cuppa! He is still in bed now, so I think it may be a phone call to Doctors this morning. I am feeling a bit delicate this morning too. Was hoping to go on my Monday walk, but may give it a miss, as I don't want to pass this on to anyone.

I have my tax return to complete, so may do that later.

I have had Windows 10 for a while Mick and if I can use it I am sure you can smile

Wishing you all a good day.
