Good Morning Everyone,
Its a sort twilight morning this morning in brackley , dry but maybe a chill in the air.
The Chinese soup dish saga, I went into Sainsburys in Bicester and got a medium sized nibble dish not dissimilar to the soup bowl.
Tried it out last night it was great , the soup seem to taste better as well.

A strange thick fog has just rolled into St.Andrews , at first I thought it was smoke ! It was much nicer earlier - I'd planned to get my washing out on the line ! Hello clothes horse !

Good evening from Sydney. A very changeable day weather wise today.

Didn't do much.

Take care everyone.

Good morning from a foggy ne. Back to work tomorrow but on less hours so let start. Bones aching this morning will take it easy with just lunch and bit baking to do take care all.

Clear blue skies over Norwich this morning and promises fine day!
Paper work this morning for retirees club! And also a bit more on family tree.And then garden!
Have a good day all!

Good morning, sunny and mild again in east London. We'll be going for a walk and picking GD up later to take her back home. Saw 'The Favourite' last night; not too sure what to make of it... Have a good day.

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders where it's much colder here today.
I have nothing exciting planned but if I get the housework done I may tackle the sewing up of my knitting. The least favourite part.

I like Potteric Carr, Greyduster. It's been a while since we went there. Today, we were thinking of going to the new RSPB site near Leeds, but the mist has come rolling back in since I posted, so I don't think we would see very much. I think we'll have to postpone the idea until a brighter day, unfortunately. Pity, as I was looking forward to it. sad

Good morning, GNS, from a stunningly sunny, bright, and beautiful morning in the Morecambe Bay area. This afternoon DH and I are going to friends, for tea. I wonder whether we'll be sitting out in the garden - it's that warm...

Good Morning everyone,its still a wee bit misty here by The Mersey but lifting slowly we have had the foghorns sounding on the River since early morning hopefully the sun will break through later on.

Late good morning to all. Just wanted to comment re soup bowl. Went to a tea room and had soup and Sandwich yesterday. It was served in like a large China cup with two side handles. Obviously an old China set all their crockery was China old style. I would love a couple of these soup bowls though will have to scour the antique shops.

Good morning All. Or should I say good afternoon. I do not know where the morning went...spent 1hr on phone to daughter then spent 2 hrs trying to reinstall my Alexa..no joy there ...managed to get the washing going other than that it’s a beautiful day just wish I could get out...

TiggyW Sun 24-Feb-19 14:19:40

Sorry, but these threads are making me lose the will to live! Is there a point to them??? Why would I want to know about someone else’s baking/washing/knitting, etc? It reminds me of women discussing their housework over the garden wall - do they want a medal? (They’ll be a long time waiting!)
If I want to know what the weather is like I can look out of the window.
I’m afraid I’ve got more important things to do.

kittylester Sun 24-Feb-19 14:31:13

Well obviously you don't tiggy.confused

grannysue05 Sun 24-Feb-19 14:32:13

Gettingitrightoneday As Maw is currently dog walking in Salcey Forest this afternoon, can I help?
Plain means a flat treeless area of land. Plane usually refers to an airplane or that tool used in wood carving.

TiggyW unlike yourself, there are posters who are housebound or lonely, for them, these posts are an opportunity to having some social interaction, albeit virtual.
Why come on and spoil what is normally a pleasant thread?
I don't recall seeing anywhere, that reading ALL threads is requirement of being a member of Gransnet. You actually don't have to read the thread.

I read this thread out of curiosity; I appreciate that it might provide interaction for someone who is lonely or housebound, but a bit of intelligent conversation would help! Sorry, but I can’t understand why anyone wants to discuss housework! ?

eilyann Sun 24-Feb-19 15:15:12

Wow TiggyW Patronising or what? You remind me of people who complain of televion programmes they've watched without realising there IS an off button!

Mapleleaf Sun 24-Feb-19 15:19:18

TiggyW, this thread is obviously not for you. There’s nothing wrong with a bit of general chit chat, but if you dislike it so much, well, you know what to do!

aggie Sun 24-Feb-19 15:20:01

I like to hear what the weather is in other areas , i would need a b....y big window to see as far as this thread takes us wink

Mapleleaf Sun 24-Feb-19 15:20:06

Just remembered, the schools have broken up!

lovebeigecardigans1955 Sun 24-Feb-19 16:30:24

Gosh, I'm late today! The schools in South Notts have been off a week already and have an inset day - they go back on either Tuesday or Wednesday. It was rather foggy earlier this morning but when it lifted the sun came out which was lovely. I can see my miniature daffodils at the end of the garden which are cheering.
This thread is meant to be all about trivialities Tiggy and we like to be uplifting.
