Good Morning Everyone,
Its a dark start,and its been raining during the night here in brackley.
My usual day in my shop local, watch cycle racing on TV later.
Ordered a Frankie Valli and 4 seasons CD online , hope to get it today, they had it in local HMV store at around Xmas but did not get , as it sold fast with Jersey Boys being on in Oxford , plus unsure whether the store in banbury will remain open.

Marydoll and Dora. Meant to say on GM Monday that I mentioned dreich and peelywalla (sorry forgotten spelling) to DH and him having had a Glaswegian father, immediately knew what they meant and has been coaching me in the pronunciation. I shall be dropping them into the conversation from time to time. ?

Methinks do what you like is appropriate. Maybe change it to good afternoon though?! I think we're ua friendly harmless lot in the main.

Hello Gransnetters I must ask is there a time limit for writing to Mick, I dont get up as early as most on here, and before I read GN it is afternoon, is it too late to write about the day after midday?

Morning all, hope all is well. It's sunny here in South Notts which lifts the spirits, a nice blue sky.

Kim19 Wed 06-Feb-19 10:52:36

Morning all! Bright but watery sunshine where I am but a 'mild' 6 degrees. Have been gutting, redesigning and painting a walk-in cupboard for the past couple of months. Rotten job and, yes, I'm a slow worker! However, it's done and I'm SO relieved. Next pleasure is to place items in there at my leisure. I'm so easily pleased.

Good morning,
A nice, sunny morning here today, after heavy rain last night.
flowers for dragonfly and Susan. Hope all goes well.
Annapops, take care too. You are wise to put your feet up today and go back to bed. It's amazing how a decent sleep can make you feel better. Don't worry about those jobs - there's plenty of days not touched yet, as my MiL used to say. Get yourself right first.

Mist and wet in South Bucks.

The fridge shelf had broken yet again when we opened it this morning. We are sending for two replacements from eSpares this time as they only last for about six months. Doh!

Good morning all,
A bit overcast here this morning. Late to post this morning as been sorting paperwork. Feeling virtuous now all done. Off fir a pedicure this morning in preparation for holiday next week.
Hope you all have the best day possible

Annapops Wed 06-Feb-19 10:22:44

Good morning all. Feeling pretty miserable and unwell today so I've taken to my bed while all the old/ new kitchen bangs on around me. I hope one day of rest brings enough recovery and relief as I just have too much to do.
Stay safe everyone.

So much brighter than yesterday which was dark, grizzle and windy all day .. today it’s mild dry cloudy

The sheep have been let out into the surrounding fields

Birds are ignoring my offering of sausage pie ... ungrateful things .... but attacking feeders with gusto ...

altogether another good day

Good morning All x
Calm quiet and damp but nowhere near as cold as it was.
A blue balloon on a string greeted me in the garden this morning so I draped it on the fir tree outside my patio door, but the cats aren't keen. I'd be interested to know where it floated from--------new baby boy,perhaps ? A little boy's birthday ?

Have some phoning to do today so have had to list them then I won't forget.

Hope all is well with everyone.. Enjoy your day whatever you do.

Nana3 Wed 06-Feb-19 09:24:34

Good morning all from Lancashire, so much brighter this morning it makes me feel better.
I will get out in the fresh air today.
Best wishes to dragonfly and Susan. Have a good day everyone.

aggie Wed 06-Feb-19 09:22:16

Good Morning all , bright out but it must have been wet in the night . Club this am , should I wear my new coat ? Or is that showing off ? Mum never let us wear new clothes on a weekday ........
Hoping for good things for Dragonfly and Susan

Good morning all, with special thoughts and good wishes for those who are anxious or under the weather. Our valley is misty this morning, no frost, and the heron is back in the pond now the ice has gone. Out for a haircut this morning and a shop, then back to do some work on the computer and, I hope, have time to read my book. DH making model railways.

Urmstongran Wed 06-Feb-19 09:03:08

Good morning everyone from a bright but chilly South Manchester. I’m sat in DD2 & SiL’s house as they are both out at work and the electricity board need to do some urgent maintenance work to the meter box. I’ve got my iPad, a good book and a cuppa so I’m happy however long this takes - drilling and banging away!
Best wishes to you both, dragonfly and Susan.

GrannyGravy13 Wed 06-Feb-19 08:59:00

Good morning Mick, Anniebach and all x

Mild and trying to brighten up in SE Essex. Nothing planned for today, just mooching down to local shops as I have lots of birthday cards to buy.

Keep safe and warm

Nannytopsy Wed 06-Feb-19 08:57:38

Good morning all! I’m another one just south of Loughborough, so you already know my weather ?. Window cleaner here already - at least I was dressed this time. I have a casserole to make and then French homework. Hope you all have reassuring days. thanks

Alygran Wed 06-Feb-19 08:51:40

Good morning everyone. Bright here North Yorkshire after very heavy rain late yesterday. Bank appointment today then lunch with a friend.
Thinking of Dragonfly and Susan.
Hope everyone has a good day.

DoraMarr Wed 06-Feb-19 08:51:12

Good morning from Birmingham where the sun is shining through thin clouds. I had a nice lie-in this morning because my appointment has been pushed back until this afternoon. I’m meeting a friend for coffee and a walk in the park this morning.
Dragonfly , thinking of you. Let us know.

Harris27 Wed 06-Feb-19 08:46:39

Morning all! It's not too bad in NE today better now snow has mostly gone. Thinking of you susan56 it's the waiting that awful. Just rang fir repair in cooker as oven went off last night hey ho another day. Keep well gransnetters.

Greyduster Wed 06-Feb-19 08:24:12

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. A clear day in South Yorkshire. Venus and Jupiter very large in the sky before dawn. I thought about going into the garden with the binoculars but chickened out! I have ironing to do today and then a birthday present for GS to pick up.
Dragonfly?. Have a good day, folks.

Grammaretto Wed 06-Feb-19 08:21:36

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders where it's dry at least.
The car goes in to be repaired. I go to my craft group.
Best wishes to Dragonfly Susan and all having treatment or getting results today. flowers

oldgaijin Wed 06-Feb-19 08:18:35

Good morning all from a slightly frosty Aberdeenshire, tho' it's a great deal milder and overcast.
There are currently three helicopters bumbling out to the North Sea, noisy lot!
The new garden fence looks great but my poor plants have been ground into the mud. Hopefully, they have survived underground and will peep through in the Spring.
Thinking of you dragonflies...Been there, done it and I hope all goes well.

teaforone Wed 06-Feb-19 08:08:29

Morning dragonfly, Thought there might be someone in the area who was not too far away. Hope your appointment this morning goes well.
