Morning Mick and All.

Sunny and slightly cooler start in South Bucks. It was about 33 degrees here yesterday just awful.

I sat watching the last episode of a series on my IPad last night with the windows wide open then the itching started and I soon realised I had been bitten 3 times by a mozzie I took a Piriton the itching stopped but I feel hung over this morning. Nothing very productive from me today I suspect. Mary I think I need some of your repellant.

Beautiful morning here. Off to watch county ladies bowls competition followed by a pub lunch and then back to watch the semi finals! No housework today! Yippee.

Good morning everyone from a very sunny Essex by the sea. We will go out for our usual breakfast a little later then we are heading to a local Folk Festival this afternoon.
I'm sure it will be very busy and very hot.
Have a good day everyone.

Thank you Marydoll

Let’s just hope they don’t think I’m sweet enough.

Safe journey Urmonstongram, have brought your midgie repellant ?

Good Morning everyone.
Dry and bright on Severnside.
My day out yesterday was hot and weary so I don’t plan on doing much today......potter and sit.

I hope you all have a good day and your husband enjoys his trip out Calpurnia ?

Good morning all from a cool and breezy Glasgow, looks like we have had our summer!
Woken at 5.30 by burglar alarm, well my husband was! I never heard it! ? However, it took him so long to put it off, that I went down too. Heavens knows what he did to it, it wouldn't stop!!! It's usually me who goes down.
Then I realised all the neighbours' alarms were going too. confused. There was no power cut, so who knows what caused it.

I'm off out to church this morning, I haven't been in ages, as I have been so unwell. It will be good to catch up with people.

I hope all goes well for Mr Kitty, that is an early start, Kitty.
Grammaretto, enjoy your day. I'm glad you took our advice and are no longer a golf widow grin

Wishing everyone a pleasant Sunday, whatever your plans.

Morning All

A lovely summers morning here in Norfolk with a gently breeze. It should be in the mid twenties today so perfect for me.

May go for a sail with DS and family later as long as the breeze doesn’t fill in too much.

I loved Tallinn Sapphire. But it was minus 24 when we visited so not too many tourists apart from a few hardy Japanese and Canadians.

Good morning everyone from South Manchester where the sun is shining. The air is fresher though and the pollen count must have dropped as my hay fever has gone.

We are setting off for a long drive up to the Highlands in a bit. We are booked into a lovely hotel for 6 nights which overlooks Loch Carron. Busy week ahead as we have appointments made to set in motion the selling of my second dad’s house up there. His parents bought it in 1929 and it’s been the family home ever since. This will be sad for him to do but he’s 86y and says it needs to be done now.

Hope Sunday is kind to us all whether we have plans or none. x

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. South Yorkshire is just coming up to a gentle simmer. Some cloud about. Please don’t let it be as hot as yesterday. GS’s phone alarm woke both he and I this morning. He is here for most of the day while his parents are running in a half marathon. We may check out the swimming pool and hope that everyone doesn’t have the same idea! Hope the curry goes down well, Mick. Let us know how it turns out. Have a good Sunday folks.

Good morning everyone from a bright and sunny ? Tallin, in Estonia.
Just about to go and meet up for my city tour. Have a good day everyone!

Grammaretto Sun 30-Jun-19 07:01:25

We have had our Scottish summer now: 2 hot days and a thunderstorm.
Its fresh and windy today. I've arranged to meet an old friend in Edinburgh later so won't be a golf widow. wink
Hope everyone's day goes well.

Calpurnia Sun 30-Jun-19 06:33:01

It’s rather cloudy here in my corner of S.Devon but hopefully the sun will shine later. I will try and get my husband out in the car today. He is really not well but I hope some fresh sea air will do us both good. Fortunately the prom is not too far away and there are nice sea facing benches to rest on while we enjoy a nice cup of coffee.

Wishing all GN’s a happy stress free day.

Morning Mick and all. Up with the lark due to hardly any sleep and I expect many people have been the same. Bright morning a bit windy. Hope I can grab some sleep throughout the day. Even the dogs are complaining. Hope everyone has a great day and those not feeling well my thoughts are with you.

Good Morning Everyone,
Its another bright sunny start with a clear sky this morning in Brackley.
Had prepared the turkey curry yesterday, will do it to warm in slow cooker later.
Other than a usual Sunday in, its build up time for the tour de France which will occupy my TV viewing most afternoons from next Saturday.
Mick
