Good morning all! We have had a dusting of snow in Leicester but now it is a stunning day. About to do some baking for a big trip to Centreparcs at the weekend then working this afternoon. Have a good day everyone.

Hello all, it's very cold and frosty in Nottingham, but the sun is shining. We had a light dusting of snow in the night. Him Indoors went off to Devon at 5.30, to attend his uncle's funeral. I'm here, with Laryngitis, but may meet a friend later for coffee. Zumba tonight.

Good morning All x
Bright sunny day cold wind but a fab wash day.

Wouldn't have thought Mick's comp. would be out of action this long but we can't look on the bleak side re. any other problem. Hope things are okay with him all the same.

Had a bit of a lie-in to make up for yesterdays non-sleep so feel re-charged and might eat a bit more today. Appetite can be a bit hit and miss of late.

Hope all remains well with everyone.

Morning All

Bright, a bit breezy and decidedly chilly here in the north of Norfolk. There’s not much between us and the Artic ice sheet when the north wind blows!

I too wondered if GN Admin could try to contact Mick to see if all is well.

Good morning.
It's a lovely bright, sunny morning, but cold.
Watching the birds feeding from the feeders, doing their usual squabbling - especially the starlings! It looks as if I might need to top the feeders up later, the way they are going at them.
Yes, it is strange without Mick starting us off, and like you, I hope he is ok.
Have a good day, everyone.

Covering of snow here too in the North. Beautiful pink sunrise. Lots of birds at the feeders. We only fill the feeders when there is a shortage of natural food. Take care all.

Good morning all from northern ireland. I got a surprise this morning when I pulled back the curtains to see a winter wonderlan. ]?. Looks lovely but I hope this is all we get. Safe driving everyone.

Susan56 Thu 17-Jan-19 09:12:15

Good morning everyone.Cold but bright in North Shropshire.Sorting out the car insurance renewal today.No granddaughter today as they are on holiday for the week but looking forward to seeing my younger daughter and baby grandson tomorrow if the snow stays away.We haven’t seen them since Christmas as she has gone back to work after maternity leave and they live too far away to just pop in.

Anniebach Thu 17-Jan-19 09:00:52

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Hope my younger granddaughter is calling today, haven’t seen anyone for over two weeks so looking forward to chatting and laughter.

Hope everyone has a good day x

Good morning all from a snowy Aberdeenshire. What strange weather...we had huge hailstones, thunder and lightning through the night and this morning a covering of snow. No doubt the Cockbridge to Tomintoul road will be closed.
Nothing planned for today so shall shut myself in the sewing room with coffee, heater and music and crack on with unfinished projects.
Still no Mick? I'm sure he would have said if he was going away.
Have a good day everyone.

ninathenana Thu 17-Jan-19 08:48:58

Morning everyone.

I had a lie in this morning, just having my first cuppa and waiting for DH to cook breckie.
A bit of housework and some admin. to do today.
Have a good day everyone. I hope all is well with Mick

harrigran Thu 17-Jan-19 08:47:17

Good morning, cold and very windy again in the NE.
Need to go shopping for basics.
Hope Mick is okay and it is just his computer playing up.

Gagagran Thu 17-Jan-19 08:35:14

Morning all! Just back from our usual weekly supermarket trip and had breakfast.

I wonder if Mick could be contacted by GNHQ as we are all so concerned for him? It could be he is off on another of his trips and couldn't tell us with no computer working. Just a thought!

I did my wardrobe cull yesterday and dropped in a big bag at the charity shop - mainly jumpers so hopefully will be a good source of funds for them.

Good luck with the taxi job Grey - hope the snow keeps away for you!

Bits and bobs day for me today. Something always crops up.

Have a good day everyone. sunshine

Good Evening; Another warm day in Paradise; 35C after o/n min. 22C Don't know why you are complaining, ScotinOz! Get down to Tooronga Park and enjoy the dolphins playing with their ice-cubes; Jump in with them if you feel too hot. grin
Marydoll; Sorry to hear of your troubles; hasn't been your week I suppose. Get better soon and resume jousting! grin

Greyduster Thu 17-Jan-19 08:21:42

Good morning, NanKate, Kitty and all GNs. We had a flurry of snow in the night, but it is clear and very cold in South Yorkshire this morning. DH’s back is still keeping him from moving very much so it looks as if I shall be doing the school run this afternoon. Now, let me see! How do you drive a car again? ? Have a good day, folks.

angelic Thu 17-Jan-19 08:14:18

Morning all from a dull cold Hampshire.
House bits to do this am and hopefully get to doing my patchwork quilt, this pm.
Take care all and have a good Thursday

Good morning from a cold, damp Colchester.
This thread has a weird feel with all the worry about Mick
Opticians today to choose new specs.

aggie Thu 17-Jan-19 08:07:31

BlueSapphire Thu 17-Jan-19 07:57:53

Good morning all. Looks like we have had a bit of snow here in Northampton.
Good night out yesterday with DD at our wine club. We were tasting Shiraz, which went down very well.
Nothing planned for today, so will catch up on some tv and reading.
Hope everyone's day goes well.

Willow10 Thu 17-Jan-19 07:55:47

Good morning all from a damp, chilly East Northants. I do wish we knew what was happening with Mick. Bit of shopping for me today, then I really must sort my outfit for a Golden Wedding anniversary party on Saturday. Keep warm everyone!

1inamillion Thu 17-Jan-19 07:48:10

Hope all goes well for you Marydoll. I too didn't sleep well due to arthritis in my foot. Should have had an op on it yesterday but hospital cancelled as the surgeon is ill.
Enjoy your lunch, love Glasgow, very friendly people.

GrannyGravy13 Thu 17-Jan-19 07:44:46

Good morning all x

Good morning Anniebach xx

Looks grey and cold outside in SE Essex.

A pottering round sort of day, will wander down to local shops.

I do hope Mick is ok.

Have a peaceful Thursday.

Good morning from a bright, clear Birmingham. There is a beautiful golden glow in the eastern sky. Worrying that Micheal is still silent.
Hospital this morning, then no plans for this afternoon, but if the weather is fine I might have a walk around Winterbourne on my way back from the hospital.
