Well done on your limerick Nankate had you thought about writing for cards? I think you could have a career 
Concerns re: my granddaughters weight
Good Morning Everyone,
Its a blue sky start with some cloud in Brackley this morning, a quiet day maybe place flowers on family graves.
Will watch some Cycling on TV later .

Well done on your limerick Nankate had you thought about writing for cards? I think you could have a career 
Thanks Gilly I never thought of dialects and pronunciation, how interesting. I am a Brummie but because I had a very bad stammer as a child I had elocution lessons and came out talking differently from my mates.
Much better than I could ever do and well deserving of a prize NanKate but being a Geordie I struggled to get “Archie” , “classy” and “horsey” to ryhme .
Sorry I know I’m terribly common 
I see...well, best wishes going forward harrigran with whatever tests and treatments you may have in the pipeline.
It must be very unsettling. ???
At the request of my GN pals here goes.
There once was a young lad named Archie
Whose parents were really quite classy
His great gran was a hoot
Who raised pheasants to shoot
And hoped he would grow up to be horsey.
Takes bow and shuffles off.
Ah Gillybob you talking about the gc and mud brought back memories of my lot and their friends. If there was mud they would find it. We called them the mud gang.
Heavy rain all night here in N Somerset and dark this morning but we still set off with our bikes for a short ride in Wales (blasted hills). Will have to give up cycling for a week or so as my energy has once again gone and I need a top up of my iron tablets. Going away in 3 weeks so will have to make sure I am over my bad patch.
I don't think you have to stop before a scan. I didn't take the ppi until after the gastroscopy and test for h-pylori.
Don't you have to stop taking PPIs for some days before a CT or MRI?
Hi everyone 
It's sunny with a blue sky and puffy greyish/white clouds here in Godalming. Temp 19° rising to 22° early pm.
My run today ended near Waitrose and I bought duck treats (brioche) and a punnet of strawbs for me to eat by the river. Water to drink.
I plan to spend time in Guildford Castle gardens today and will take my book 'The Damned United' to finish. It's the second reading. Next on my list is The Party's Over by Richard Heinberg.
Quiz and pizza tonight with friends.
Wishing all GNers a good day and flowers] to everyone feeling a bit down. I hope your situations improve.
Take care.
Good morning from the south east Kent coast. Bit late today but had to walk into the village for milk; much pleasanter walking along the sea wall to rather than my usual High Road. The cloud is creeping in, with occasional breaks of sun but still pleasantly warm in my sheltered spot. (Seriously thinking about delaying our trip up north til September given all the unpleasant weather reports). Got to think about entertainment for GD today; she doesn’t seem so entranced by the sea and beach at the moment. Have a good day.
Good morning from sunny but windy Devon, threat of a few showers today. Got to pop out this morning then hopefully out in the garden.
Good morning everyone from a very sunny Essex by the sea. Our summer has been ok so far, I think we've been lucky compared to some parts of the country.
Not much on the cards today, DH will be back later after an overnight stay in Birmingham for a business meeting.
Only just over 3 weeks til our holiday, very much looking forward to it.
Have a good day everyone.
Morning all from a sunny and warm South Notts.
Out for afternoon tea with sister and old school friend later.
I suppose I'd better get some chores done first.
Hope all is well with everyone.
I dont often come on here because I feel guilty, I'm still laying around, while everyone else is up and about. Anyway, have a nice day everyone. It's dull and dreary here in Wales. Going to London for the weekend with the family, so got to get sone packing done .
No Lisa. I put their leads on and they collect them at the front door.
Sorry your granddaughter can’t get to you again Anniebach. Do you see the folks that walk your dogs?
Good morning Auntyflo and all x
Younger granddaughter can’t come down again this week, her car in the garage. Haven’t seen anyone for over two weeks.
Hope everyone has a good day x
Good morning everyone.
It's clouding over now, and showers are forecast but supposed to be clearing later. Time will tell.
Off to a slightly delayed retirement party this pm. Someone else has managed to escape the horror my former workplace has become!
Tidy up the garden in a bit if it stays dry for long enough.
Hope you all enjoy a lovely day, whatever the weather. ?
Morning all - cleaning like a dervish so that I can enjoy the afternoon sunshine then fish&chip supper at English bar with friends.
Enjoy north Wales vena11 - we’ll be back there tomorrow and I know it’s promising a gorgeous day but not sure it will last!
Have a nice day....
Good to hear from you harrigran, look after yourself.
Morning Michael, Annie to come and all others.
It's brightening up nicely here, I can see blue sky and a few fluffy clouds from my bed, where I have just had my first cuppa of the day, ahhh nice.
We had a torrential downpour yesterday evening, just after I had put out some washing, so it had an extra rinse and has been out all night now.
Well it's Wed, so half way through the week Gillybob 
I have to go and collect an order from the garden centre this morning, so nice excuse for a mooch and a coffee as well.
DH is on the last few countdowns for his treatment, great. This last week, he has been very tired, and drops off to sleep at the drop of a hat.
Hoping Harrigran is alright.
Have a good day one and all.
Morning Mick, morning All. We’ve woken in our corner of Somerset to see huge puddles, pouring again now. No idea how the day will pan out with two resident grandchildren. Off out for breakfast soon, food is good! Too old for puddle jumping and ‘forgot’ their wet weather clothes. Need a sigh emoji. Oh well, we’ll cope. Maybe more baking. Feel sorry for the holidaymakers, this area has little to offer in the rain which seems to be with us for the next week. Hope Wednesday is kind to everyone.
We have brighter days in the north east but never a summer! It was so dark yesterday at work my kiddies thought it was night time! ( work in a nursery) never mind two half weeks till my holiday can't wait! Have a lovely day all.
Good morning from Leicestershire. DH has early physio appointment so out for breakfast after.
Then meeting a friend for lunch. Won’t need any dinner!
Thinking of Harrigan
Good morning from an overcast NE, not raining so that is a bonus.
GP was running late yesterday but at least I was seen, she just read back to me what consultant had said and they would hold fire until after my scan next week. She did give me a prescription for more PPIs so that I can take them morning and night but in this case I don't think it is the acid that it is the problem.
I slept through last night and do not feel like a zombie this morning so better get on with jobs while I am able.
