Good Morning Tuesday

Good morning from Colchester where the clouds are gathering again. The early sunshine has disappeared and rain is due by noon.
Laundry to do and hang indoors followed by a pile of ironing.

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Gardener didn’t turn up Saturday and I bought shrubs and
bedding plants for him to plant , grrrrr

Hope everyone has a good day x

Morning Michael, Annie to come, and all GN’s.
Can’t be Tuesday already, where did Monday go? Oh right, I did some gardening, and am trying to make a pond in a pot, so now have achey muscles. I did soak in the bath yesterday afternoon, but that was because it got chilly as well.
Glad I didn’t hang my washing out overnight, as it has rained here, but will put it out in a minute.
Handyman coming to check sizes for the new hinges on loads of doors, then I am volunteering this afternoon.
Marydoll, hope you soon feel a bit better, it’s going on too long.
Have a good day one and all.

Good Morning all , sun is shining , but it is decidedly chilly , i took my coffee for a walk round the garden to check where DD1 had put new plants but had to come back in for a jacket so ended up staying in , hope it warms up soon !
Marydoll can your GP chase up the Angiogram ? you need help now xxx

Good morning All x
Not a bit like Summer here in the NW as it's quite chilly in that sea breeze. Cloudy and sunny at the mo.

Started my shopping list though I don't need much myself it's mainly because of the cats as their food is cheaper in bulk rather than corner shops. It's the calm before the storm as regards shopping because I'll be going frantic in a couple of weeks before my Aussie visitors.

Bit of ironing to do then flick the duster over the place, nothing too energetic. Won't risk any washing today I don't think.

Hope everyone is okay and Marydoll gets sorted one way or another, chest pains are scary.

Good morning from Gateshead. Its cloudy and cool here today. Im watching dvds and wondering about what to have for breakfast. Then im off out for a walk.
Hope you all have a lovely Tuesday.

Good morning everyone,
A dull, overcast morning here today. I hope it brightens up a bit as I would like to plant up some pots and perhaps cut the grass, but at the moment it looks like rain is on the way. Think it might be housework instead!
Hoping to see my friend this afternoon.
Enjoy your day. ?

Good morning all it was an early start today as have a hospital appointment.

Good morning from east London, cloudy with a bit of sunshine. Had planned to make an early start today but reading got the better of me again. Have to drop off my tennis racket for stringing, then to the hospital for a blood test. Had hoped to get there before the crush, but will just have to take a good book.. And then it’s book club tonight and GD comes back for her sleepover. Have a good day.

Good morning Mick, good morning all from sunny (at the moment) Devon. We had rain overnight & will possibly have showers today.

Off to Podiatrist this morning, NHS due to Diabetes, my feet will feel wonderful after I've been.

Not sure what I shall do the rest of the day, out in the garden if it's sunny if not housework.

Cloudy here in the fens where I’m staying on my eldest daughter’s farm. We also have youngest daughter’s two boys for half term. All busy as they breed dogs so the boys are involved in training. Hope the rain keeps off so we can all get outside!

Morning all from South Notts. The sun is trying to break through after a bit of thunder and a heavy shower late yesterday afternoon. I managed to trim a couple of small trees before the heavens opened.
Hope all is well with everyone.

Oh, I remember the lovely Rackhams, my wedding dress came from .there. I remember it being built, when they constructed a viewing platform so you could watch! The amazing fabric hall, the window displays and the lovely Lilac Tree restaurant. My mother and I used to go to Birmingham by train and spend most of the day in Rackhams. Sorry to hear it is closing.
I also remember Lewis's, (not John Lewis), prior to Rackhams, where the big treat was to ride up, and down, the escalator. I miss the Department stores.Happy days.

easybee my wedding dress came from Rackham's too!! I remember Lewis's too. The top floor always had seasonal displays, Father Christmas in his grotto and at Easter incubaters with chicks hatching! Would be classed as animal cruelty now and certainly not allowed! It had a food hall as well where we all went to buy cream cakes whenever there was a celebration at work!

My mum used to work at Lewis’s back in the day. There was a small zoo on the roof. As an 11 year old I would take the bus into B’ham go to the cafe in Barrows and have a glass of orange squash and a choc cake with a face on the front. I have always been at ease going to cafes by myself.

I was banned from Lewis’s children’s hairdressing dept as I screamed when they tried to cut my hair and upset the other children.
