Morning All

A brilliantly red sunrise through the gathering clouds on the horizon earlier. It’s grey all over now. Quite dark grey in places and very still so we may well get a few drops of rain.

Picking up DGS this afternoon for a sleepover. Hopefully tomorrow will be warm enough still for a visit to the beach in the morning.

Good morning from a (now) calm NE coast where we had the most spectacular thunder and lightening show over night together with torrential rain . It lasted for hours and the bedroom was lighting up very few minutes. More heavy rain forecast for later today .

My Dyson fan works for its keep too Maw I can’t remember the last time I slept without it .

Had good fun with DGS (9) yesterday afternoon when he announced that “he was going to get me fit” the DGC are all super sporty and there’s not a pick of fat on them. DGS said “grandma, look at my 6 pack, you don’t get this from sitting around you know” he then proceeded to spread his sister’s dance mats on the lawn and become my personal trainer. His expressions had me in fits of giggles but he really is very good. Last night when he went home he left me with instructions for my new “routine” grin

I’m back to “that place” today, the bank holiday followed by my usual Tuesday childcare has knocked me sideways and I am feeling quite miserable to be going back after being away since Friday PM. Lots of catching up to do too. Yuk.

Well I fell that I have taken too much of your time already blabbering on.

Have a good Wednesday everyone whether you are one of the lucky people away on holiday, a reluctant stay at home (like me) or just happy relaxing in your own surroundings , I hope today is kind to us all xx

Good Morning from very dull and rainy looking Fife. Big change from last two days sad. We have DGS2 today since DGS1 now at nursery, it's such a change only having one, so quiet smile. Bought additional car seat too so can now transport them both wherever/whenever. Will wait and see how the weather turns out before deciding what we shall do today. Hope everyone has a good day despite weather change.

Good morning.

A complete change in the weather for Kent. It's cloudy and rain is forecast. I can't remember when we last had rain. Still warm though.
Nothing planned apart from taking DH too and from work.
Have a good day everyone.

Good morning all. Another hot day beginning here in Malta.

I’m feeling like Maw this morning, it’s a struggle to get up, although I have been awake since 6am and have fed the dog and washed the backyard. Trouble is, I then take my tea back to bed and can’t muster up the energy to shower and dress.

I’m meeting a pal for coffee but not until 10.30, so I can laze a bit longer. blush

Hope everyone has a good day.☀️

Good morning, the sky is beginning to clear in Leicestershire but despite the rain not much cooler.

Coffee with friends this morning then must gather together P60’s etc for the accountant and transfer money from different accounts for my mum’s fees just in case. On countdown now til Monday.

I ought too to get the washing in which got soaked yesterday.

Good morning from east London and it’s been rainy. However it will fair up soon as this morning is my first chance to play tennis this week. I’m having to postpone my usual ‘reading in bed in the mornings’ to beat the builders; work starts on the kitchen today and I want to have breakfast before the fun starts. Looking after GD this afternoon, I think we’ll need to get the shovels out to clear up after her party with a short break at some point to collect a friend after a hospital procedure -I’m ‘On-call’ from about 5.30. Have a good day.

Good morning Mick and all to come. Still no rain here.
Despite the best efforts of my Dyson fan which has been on non-stop for the last 5 days(!) I have been awake since 5.30, disturbed the dog (“Out now? Why?”), read most of the newspaper, drunk tea and contemplated life.
Just don’t feel like getting up!
Book Club barbecue lunch today but not a lot else.
Wishing you all a pleasant day!
