Good morning from a bright and sunny ? Northampton.

Had a busy day yesterday mainly gardening, and then DD and I went out to our wine club's annual dinner in the eveving . A lovely meal was had by all at an Italian restaurant which specialises in 'cicchetti ', like Spanish tapas, but small plates of Italian food. Much wine was taken.... DD stayed over and she is just getting ready to go to work.

Nothing much planned for today, expecting a Sainsburys delivery this morning and then I may go to ballet class after lunch.

Hoping that today goes well for all.

Good morning everyone.

Sunny but only 14c so far in Kent.
I need to phone the repair man as my washing machine, despite DH changing the fuse has no power. Hope it's repairable as it's been a very expensive month so far.

Enjoy whatever your doing.
Good luck kitty smile

Good morning all from a much cooler Glasgow.

I'm having a day at home today, until the nursery pick up at four.
As usual been doing too much and paying the price today, I'm pretty shattered.
I have lots of wee sewing jobs to do, that's the downside of having short arms and legs. grin
I shall plonk myself down in the conservatory, and binge on Escape to the Country, whilst sewing and experience house envy. envy

DD and her partner are popping in on their way to a short, Highland break this morning, so I shall have to rustle up some scones. The tins are bare.
I'm preparing for to nip my ears about bridesmaids's dresses, as DIL is dragging her feet.

Glad to hear you are getting away Grammaretto.
Enjoy your day, everyone.

Good Morning All. Rather grey skies at present in Cheshire.
Heres hoping for some sunshine.
Why does everyone but us in Cheshire get sunshine. ???

Good Morning all.
Dry here on S Welsh coast.
Took flowers to my parents' graves yesterday. Not an easy drive as it up a quite remote hillside.

Our granddog is being picked up by the dog groomers at 7.40.
Will take her for a walk later.
Have a good day all.

Good morning everyone! Goes up your loins Kitty and stock up on gin!
DH off to school for the last time, for the GCSE results then he hands in his keys etc. The end of an era and the beginning of the next.
Hope Thursday is kind to everyone.

Another wonderfully sunny morning here in the north of Norfolk. A day on the water beckons, making the most of the weather while it lasts. There's a touch of autumn in the air.

Good Morning everyone.
I have overslept this morning and it is very bright and dry.
Lovely crafting gillybob. I enjoy it very much and am off to my class today.

I hope you all enjoy the sunshine today ?☀️

Good morning all.

Envy you your visit from DD2 kitty although I too would be knackered at the end. It is always fun though when family visit.

Heard yesterday my DD is coming to look after me when I have my op which should be interesting as she reverts to being the child when she is home! Still it as the thought that counts - isn’t it?

Going to see Mum today and hope she is perky and sort of knows me.

Bathroom fitters here soon!

Hope you have a wonderful holiday Grammaretto pleased you got the go ahead.

Good morning from east London, bright and sunny here. Helping at the foodbank this morning so need to be away by about half 8. Have a quantity of plums and crab apples to sort out having spent a fair bit of yesterday afternoon on the allotment our friend is looking after. Locating a muslin cloth is on the agenda. Have a good day.

Morning Mick, morning corner, morning all.

It's quite bright in North Leicestershire and the forecast us for a dry, warm day.

Cleaner coming to work her magic while I am doing a huge shop. We have DD2 and co here for a week which always involves lots of visits from the other children and her old school friends.

I'm tired just thinking about it!

Good Morning to all and to those who follow. It's bright in Fife this morning but cooler. Let's hope they are correct in their weather forecast for our weekend. DGS1 got on swimmingly yesterday on his first day at nursery. It was very different only having a 10 month old to look after, house very quiet smile. Off to visit relatives today so have a fair journey in front of us. Hope today is good to everyone.

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. Bright and dry so far.
I'm getting excited about my holidays We are off this weekend. Such a lot to do beforehand but we'll get there. The car's getting new tyres today. I should get a haircut but I have probably left it too late. Why are hairdressers always booked up? Sigh!
A friend is coming over for coffee. That will be nice.
Have a good day everyone.

Morning Mick, morning All. Clear skies over our corner of Somerset, not too hot I suspect with our sea breeze. Busy day ahead with two grandchildren. Hope Thursday is kind to everyone.
