Good morning all from Fumiciono airport.
We had a very early start, so safely here for our flight to Amsterdam.

An embarrassing moment at airport, when DH was way over his luggage allowance. ??
He bought nothing at all, his case was full of my bargains from yesterday's market.? He was not amused!!!

I will have to phone my GP as soon as I get home. My legs are covered in a fiery rash, I look as if I have been burnt. It's not sunburn, as I was wearing trousers the whole time. I couldn't get my shoes on this morning and improvised with a teaspoon as a shoehorn!
I suspect it's that blessed medication again.

Urmstongran, good friends are worth their weight in gold!
Brunette, you have depressed me with stories of rain! I have lots of washing to do!?
Have a good day, everyone.

Good morning from the NE coast where we have a dull and damp start to the week.

I can’t believe it’s Monday again already and the beginning of a bit of a hectic week. I had little Evie over night on Saturday and all day yesterday too . Didn’t eventually take her home until 8pm all bathed and in her PJ’s . School run for DGS this morning then “that place” until 3pm then more school runs and an overnight for the eldest 3 . I then have Evie back for an overnight on Tuesday as my DD is on a 10pm finish. I will drop her home on my way to “that place” on Wednesday morning . I’m worn out thinking about it all.

DH has a hospital appointment tomorrow morning so I will drop the children at school then we will continue on to see the consultant. I do hope he can arrange to have his operation soon as it’s a miserable existence at the moment.

I hope those on holiday continue to have a lovely time (lovely happy photo Urmstongran ) and those who are feeling under the weather fell better soon. x

Good Morning All. It is raining in Cheshire. And looks cold. Too wert to go out.
There is a mystery here. The racks that support the burners on my cooker have disappeared . I cannot quite understand where they are at present and its too wet to bother. They are too big to go in the sink.
The pressure cooker fizzed rice startch over the cooker . (Dinner was lovely. ) I will have to explore further. If I can be bothered.

Good Morning from a rainy Black Country.

Sad day yesterday, as took Mum to see her sister in Hospital. She is in a bad way and I doubt she will be with us much longer. Mum came back to our house and we had a BBQ in the sun.

Walking for Health walk this morning, then this afternoon I need to find some new sunglasses as I broke mine and we are away to Croatia in 2 weeks!

Lovely photo Urmston I guess you are the lady at the back in red? smile. It is great that you have a group of lovely ladies to meet up with whilst out there!

Birthdays in a family do seem to come as a crop kitty we have 3 altogether in July, and 3 near Christmas! Ooops I said it smile

Enjoy your day everyone..

Good morning from Shropshire where we have very heavy rain this morning.
We too have several birthdays over the next few weeks kitty,I have taken the easy way out and ordered online so waiting in for deliveries today.
An ex colleague is coming over later for a catch up.
Have a good day all.

Urmstongran - no lovely smells here of seagulls I'm afraid just the sound of rain wink .How lovely that you have good friends around you and you can chat away. Lovely picture - hope you have a good chat/day.

Good morning everyone from Malaga where the sun’s just rising. Look like being another nice day. I awoke to the sound of the seagulls and the smell of pine trees - always more prominent first thing in a morning in the (slightly) cooler air. There are half a dozen small fishing boats chugging out on the Mediterranean - probably the reason why I could hear the seagulls as they wheel beside the boats!

Nothing planned till this afternoon. Then it’s my ladies group at 2pm. Four of us again this week to have a laugh, some wine and tapas and catch up on each other’s news this past week. Over these 5 years, meeting every week (me when out here) we have developed a real depth of friendship. There is always a hug and a listening ear for any of us who need it. And it is nice just to be ladies who wine - handbags, books and lipsticks can be chatted about without boring the socks off any men at our table!

Here is a recent photo of some of us. Taken in April I think.

Hope Monday is kind to everyone whether we have plans or none. x

Good Morning from a wet Fife, dull/raining outside at the moment. Have dentist this morning then off out with DH for the day. Plan to visit a big shop where it sells mostly everything a few miles from our town. Looking forward to it. Hope everyone has a good day.

Morning all from North Leicestershire where it is quite grey.

A little shopping (we have 6 birthdays within the next 2 weeks!) and then a trip to the dentist.

My niece's baby shower this evening.

Enjoy your days everyone.

Good Morning everyone.
A dull wet start to the day on Severnside.
I had a lovely day yesterday. Did a lot of pottering jobs and sat in the sunshine reading.
Visiting my friend this morning and may go to the library this afternoon.
Have a good all ?

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. I heard rain in the night but it has stopped.
I love reading your nothing planned Mick as I have a very busy week ahead including a tall tree to be removed from our garden this morning with all that that entails.

Good morning Mick and those to come. Just light here in North Yorkshire and it looks grey out there. Very restless night and been up for an hour already.
Helping on a cooking course today.
Wishing everyone a good day.

Good Morning Everyone,
Its a grey dull start here in Brackley this morning.
Quiet day in, bit of housework in my flat etc.
Nothing planned otherwise.
