Morning All

An overcast morning next to Rutland Water.

Has a super day at the Bird Fair yesterday. So many stands, so many wonderful places in the world to see, so many brochures to dream and drool over!

DH is cooking a fry up for breakfast before we face the challenge of levering our caravan out - its sunk a bit after all the rain Friday night!

Morning Mick, morning All from a grey, overcast corner of Somerset. Sunshine is promised later though so there is hope for some planned garden remodelling. No roast lamb here, the cook really dislikes it, paella for us. Mr C is still sleeping so a slow start. Hope Sunday is kind to everyone.

Morning all. Enjoy your day one and all. Got my daughter popping in with the boys later but apart from that it's a quiet day. Which suits me down to the ground!

Good morning everyone from sunny Malaga. Another day in paradise! ???⛱

kittylester I’ve not even had my breakfast but I’m salivating at the thought of the roast lamb you’ll be eating later! Pork is gorgeous here in Spain but lamb isn’t a patch on what we buy in the U.K. Skinny chops - okay a plateful of around 7 per portion in a restaurant but only a bite of meat on each one!

Actually thinking about food (as I often do!) I do enjoy eating different foodstuffs when I get home - crumpets for example or lemon curd from M&S!

On that happy note it’s time for my breakfast.

Hoping Sunday is good to us all whether we have plans or none. x

Good Morning from a wet and chilly Fife, heating is on. Had DGS’s all night and both very good, slept until around 6 this morning so not bad. No idea what today will bring but I know it will be busy until DD arrives to take over. Glad your trip went well yesterday Marydoll. Hope everyone has a good day.

Morning all from brightish North Leicestershire.

A trip to the garden centre to spend some vouchers this morning and then butterflied leg of lamb for dinner.

Good morning Mick, Marydoll, Bordersgirl and everyone. I bet you enjoyed going over that old map Mick. 1961, seems not that long ago as I remember when they built Milton Keynes! I often wonder what going back to my home town would be like now. Would I even recognise it? I recall the last time I was there an old bleach mill had been converted to luxury apartments.

It's a bright start here in Cheshire too and I took a look at the longer-term forecast and it's going to be fine for a week or two!

Enjoying an early morning breakfast in bed, then going walking in the woods with my neighbours before driving south to the Midlands for another week's work.

Enjoy your Sunday everyone.

Hi Mick, Bordersgirl and Marydoll- I’m looking forward to the Sunday papers as well Marydoll as they’re very much a treat when I’m home in Wales.

Tea and cake with our eldest daughter and youngest grandchildren later so a good day all round. Hope all who follow have the same.

Bordersgirl, good morning!

Good morning Mick and all who follow. It's a miserable, wet day here in Glasgow and only 13 degrees.
We haven't had a proper summer at all this year !

Mick, I take it you had a successful day yesterday.

We had a brilliant day in St Andrew's yesterday, the sun shone for most of it. It was only on the way home that the weather turned nasty and the bus driver commented on how dangerous the driving conditions were.
DH, admitted that the bus tour had been a good idea, as a two and a half hour journey in torrential rain would have been very stressful.
I don't have much planned today, except for going to church.
I'm pretty exhausted after yesterday, too much walking, (in and out of shops!), so an afternoon reading the Sunday papaers will do me.

Enjoy your day, folks!

Good Morning Everyone,
Its a blue sky start with some cloud here in Brackley this morning.
Got a map of the Buckingham are OS wise from 1961 , features Milton Keynes as a small village about a mile of the former A50 , just South West of M1 Junction 14.
