Good morning, it is 4 degrees this morning and the snow is melting.
I have only been out of the house once in the last three weeks so could do with some fresh air.

Good morning everyone from a very wet Essex by the sea. Appointment with the nurse for my BP this morning, 4th in the last few weeks. It's been quite high and she wants me to have new meds before I go to my daughter's tomorrow. Condolences to Maw. Have a safe day everyone.

Good Morning from a very wet and windy Surrey. Supposed to be going on a U3A Walk this morning but don’t fancy walking in this weather so will stay indoors and potter. Going on holiday on Sunday so lots to do to prepare for that.
DH has to take his car in for repair, so he has a busy day too.
Have a good day all

Good morning from North Yorkshire. Much milder here and the snow has gone overnight. Bits and bobs to do today. May get back to the photo book of our holiday in Western Australia in 2016.
Sad day Maw. My thoughts are with you.

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. Grey and damp in South Yorkshire, but promises to brighten later. Broken night of snot and sneeze! School run this afternoon. Kind thoughts to all those facing a difficult day.

Good morning Michael, Annie and all from a dull, wet Berks. So happy that the snow has gone. supposedto be going to a coffee morning today, but not sure it is still on. DD coming lunch time, and we can have a long catch up, lovely.
Had dreams about painting/upcycling a couple of chests of drawers, but probably all pie in the sky smile
Maw thinking of you. Dora good luck with the hospital appointment.
Take care everyone.

ninathenana Mon 04-Feb-19 08:07:07

Good morning all.

Well there is nothing good about it. It's 'orrible out there. Blowing a gale and tipping it down.
Looks like I will be driving DH to town to collect his meds. He usually walks.
Have a good day everyone.

BlueSapphire Mon 04-Feb-19 08:04:32

Good morning everyone. Wet here in Northampton today, so hoping it's not going to be as cold.
Giving yoga a miss this morning but hoping to get out to the cinema this afternoon to see 'Collette.'
Lovely lunch out with family yesterday, an excellent carvery, and we shared a bottle of proseccco!
Hope everyone's day goes well. Condolences to Maw.

Good morning everyone from a damp but fairly mild South Manchester. I have a mammogram appointment at noon then on the way home I will pick up a book I ordered from our independent bookshop. ‘Why We Sleep’ a non fiction getting excellent reviews so I will put it to one side and suggest it for my book club next month - a change from novels.
A sad day for you Maw ?
Hope the paint palette proves inspirational today NfkDumpling for your flamingoes!

Good morning Mick and all from a wet, windy, miserable, but slightly warmer Glasgow, it's 6 degrees.

A quiet day for me after a busy weekend, some sewing alterations to finish and making meals for the next few days.

Safe journey, Maw and I hope all goes well today for you.

Good morning from a wet and windy Colchester. A few degrees milder though.
Walking Netball this morning.

mumofmadboys Mon 04-Feb-19 07:55:04

Bit warmer than it has been in Cumbria. Table tennis for me this morning. One of our sons is arriving this afternoon to stay for a week which will be lovely. Hope today goes OK for you Maw.

Good Morning to all and to those who follow. Its dry but very windy here in Fife today as expected. Nice to see the snow/frost away though. Out this morning for coffee with a friend then not sure what the rest of the day brings. Thinking of you Maw, take care. Hope the day is kind to everyone.

Good morning from a wet and windy East Northants. Still tired from a very restless night. I need a small roof tile repair but so far have only had an estimate of cost by email, without even looking at the job. I need a firm quote by someone who has looked at it. I guess they are just not interested in the smaller jobs. I think it will be a day pottering indoors. Thinking of you Mawbroon.flowers

Morning All

Dark, wet, windy and ‘orible here in Norfolk.

I was going to art class this morning but I think I’ll stay and paint here instead. We were only finishing off last weeks project and I’ve done that. Flamingoes. Who knew that getting the colours right on a flamingo could be so hard. First attempt was decidedly luminous. I’m rather flamingoed out now.

Good morning all from a still dark Aberdeenshire. There is a faint glow in the East which must have told the crows it's time to get up. Off they went in their thousands...It's like Hitchcock's film.
Hopefully, the fence man is coming today to make the place dog proof and re-lay some slabs so I shall be on tea duty. It is bitterly cold and rather he than me working outside.
Thinking of you today Maw and have a safe journey.
Have a good day everyone.

Nannytopsy Mon 04-Feb-19 07:27:01

Best wishes Maw. Just off to work - wash my mouth out with soap!

Gagagran Mon 04-Feb-19 07:26:21

Morning all! Wet, windy, dark but much less cold here on the south coast.

Still not back to normal healthwise so another recovery day for me. DH will do the laundry.

Hope the day is kind to us all. Go safely Maw and will think of you too. flowers

Good morning all. Wet and windy here so staying in and waiting for dishwasher repair man.

Thinking of you today Maw.

NannyJan53 Mon 04-Feb-19 07:16:24
