Good morning all from blue skies in Northampton. Have been awake and up since 5ish, done yesterday's puzzle pages, general knowledge crossword etc, my Kindle has just finished charging so here I am.

Managed to cut the grass yesterday, then did two loads of washing, and had a lazy afternoon in the garden reading in the warm sunshine. Very much enjoyed watching the last night of the Proms on tv.

Am just thinking of putting another load of washing in. Like MawB I am off to see Downton Abbey this afternoon. I wonder if we are going to the same cinema?

Have a lovely Sunday everyone.

Kate, when we were in Rome last week, we were down in the Catacombs. The guide had on two jackets and warned us it was very cold down there. People had wrapped themselves up in cardigans and pashminas, I was in a linen top and positively sweltering! We are so used to the cold, but certainly don't like it!! sad

Good morning from a dull NI. Heading out now with my walking group. Hope the rain stays away as I got my hair done yesterday. Have a good day everyone.

Morning all, sun out again in Bristol, enjoyed a lovely BQ yesterday the weather was so warm, sorry Marydoll I am Scottish and from quite near Glasgow and know fine well how the weather can be up there, miss home a lot but don't miss the weather .
Lazy day today maybe just a nice walk before Sunday lunch.

Morning Mick Kitty Mary and All

Light fluffy clouds in South Bucks. Due to be a warm day at about 24 degrees (sorry Mary know it’s a bit chilly up your way). Off to NT Cliveden for coffee (and our own cake as I refuse to pay their prices). After a walk around the grounds we are going to have a picnic in the Oriental Garden.

Enjoy your hols Kitty and the family meet up.

Hope you are happy in your new home NannyTopsy.

Good morning from a sunny but crisp corner of N Bucks.
I woke at 6.30, wrote a Good Morning post but it promptly disappeared so I turned over and went back to sleep.
Sorry for all who have pains and worries and wish you all possible and speedy relief.
Having dealt with my holiday washing yesterday I plan to clear any ironing while I catch up on The Archers, then it’s the Downton Abbey film this afternoon.
So it’s business as usual and I wish you all a pleasant day.

Good morning all from a very breezy Glasgow, a great day for drying the washing!

Yet another sleepless night, so I've been pottering about since early morning.
The Scottish traditional steak pie is made, (DH has been craving it since Rome) the bathrooms cleaned and the washing ready to go on!

I'm off to church this morning, I think I will change what I planned to wear, as it quite cool today. Where is this predicted heatwave, everyone is talking about? ?

For Brunette and those felling low or poorly, ?

Morning Mick, Topsy, everyone.

We are sitting in bed watching it get light on the Lancashire coast.

After breakfast we are going to collect my lovely aunt from Preston and bring her back for lunch. She is the widow of my uncle. Mum took against her and we saw little of them - turns out she is fabulous. She has 3 children (my cousins) who I am trying to get to know too. What a waste.sad

Enjoy the cycling again, Mick. And dont forget the wine Topsy.

Good Morning from Fife. It’s bright, dry and peaceful here just now. No plans for today, choked full of cold and sore throat. Thanks to all with your kind comments yesterday I very much appreciated them. I hope today is kind to everyone.

Good morning Mick! Enjoy your cycling. We are going home today - hurrah! Had a lovely holiday in France but we are impatient to get home and sort out our new house. Have a good day everyone.
