Good Morning Everyone,
The weather is getting more autumnal with daylight hours shortening here in Brackley.
Usual Saturday out to Buckingham and Bicester with maybe another map at Buckingham Flea Market.
Yesterday was different I went on Facebook , seeing a friend request , I responded to it, it was someone I had seen since the mid 70`s when in the RAF in Germany .

Morning Michael, Annie to come and all others.
It is dry and bright here, no rain, yet!
Usual morning coffee with friends later, then an MRI scan for me at the local hospital. They keep sending text messages, reminding me, and saying something about my appointment letter. Which letter? I have not received one. The appointment was made by them phoning me!
Lovely photos Urmstongran, and Marydoll. And good news for Harrigran.
Kitty, did you have a giant champagne lollipop? Hope you get your freezer sorted.
Beechnut, after the scathing reports on new hosing recently, I expect that is why older houses are being preferred.
Gillybob, I do hope that Mr G, has a more comfortable couple of days until his hospital appointment, and that you survive the weekend.
Have a good day one and all.

Good Morning All x
Weather a bit of a mix at the moment but I must get some washing done. Forecast isn't showing rain so I'll take a chance.

That lovely blue sky above Marydoll is what I miss, it looks great there.A brilliant holiday for you.
Urmstongran a lovely snap and fabulous memories of 45 years, Congratulations and enjoy. I know you will !

Harrigran, pleased that all's well with the scan, have you tried oil of peppermint with a drop of boiled water for your tum ?

Hope Gillybob can have a calm weekend without too much sleeplessness all round, not long until H's op now to bring relief as he must feel awful with his pain as well as causing disturbances.

I can't keep up !
Anyway, I hope everyone's day goes well, along with Mick's new-found friend.

Good morning all.
Mick through Facebook I recently renewed a friendship, we last saw each other 60 years ago after growing up together and going through school together.
She went on to university and then went to live abroad for many years.
Now both 82 we met up 3 weekends ago , we stayed in a Premier Inn and had a lovely and very happy reunion.
I don’t know if we will meet again as ill health and logistics may beat us but we will keep up phone contact.
I hope your contact is as successful.

Good morning from east London where it’s dull and blowy. Very chuffed, I sorted daughter’s sofa yesterday then DP queried if I’d got it ‘the right way round’ as it’s a corner one. Slight panic but sorted now. (I’ll get my coat and go to the ‘other chat’ about that). Had a last minute invite to pop over and see a friend and spent a pleasant couple of hours in a bistro in Enfield; indulged in a glass of still cider which was a change but didn’t make DP’s driving any better. This evening we’re going to the Walthamstow Music Festival, an informal party organised by a choir friend where people are invited to ‘do their thing’, anything to do with music. I really enjoyed it last year, saw lots of people I hadn’t seen in years and did lots of singing. DP doesn’t sing but is reassured as there’ll be plenty of food and drink. Before that, we will be cleaning, only 2 weeks more of builders. Have a good day.

Good morning everyone. I’m sat in a hotel in Southampton waiting until noon when DH and I can board P&O Britannia. I can actually see her from my bedroom window. See you all in 2 weeks

Look who greeted me this morning . They usually don't appear indoors until October. Is he trying to tell us something
