Good Morning everyone from a very damp Severnside after the downpour for most of the day yesterday.

If the rain stays away today I will potter outside and in the shed.

I saw that you popped in yesterday gilly. Keep holding hands, it will comfort you both and you are never far from a hug and thoughts of anyone here ?xx I hope the lads at That Place are keeping an eye on things there for you.

I hope you all enjoy the day even if you are bleary eyed from an early start like Urmston ?

Good morning everyone from a dull, dry Essex by the sea. We will be watching the rugby later then DH wants to go to M&S to buy a couple of things. I have 20% off vouchers. We will probably go and visit grandchildren after shopping.
If it doesn't rain we may go by train down to the seafront and watch the fireworks this evening, they have them every Saturday evening this time of year.
Thinking of Gillybobs and her DH.
Have a good day everyone.

Good Morning Mick and those who'll be here shortly x
So dark and I don't like it if I'm honest. Damp everywhere as I let the cats out after their breakfasts and fed the old stray Tom as he came out of his kennel. That old cat must be nearing 20 and eats like a horse. His ears are a bit moth-eaten but overall he's not in bad nick.

A bit of ironing to do then make a sponge cake for the weekend.
I've ordered a fold-up Jay-bed so that I can have the children in turns for weekends and school breaks. Easy to set up and to also store away. Good job I kept all my bedding afterall I knew it'd come in handy sometime.

Thinking of Gillybob and hope the night went alright for her DH and herself and that she managed to grab some sleep as I know how difficult it is------sleeping with one eye open. x

Hope the day goes well for everyone.

Morning all from sunny Greece which I’m leaving today having had a lovely time with good friends but I’m looking forward to DH picking me up later this evening and home to not so warm north Wales.

Have dipped in occasionally and see that gillybobs DH is still in intensive care so kind thoughts and prayers to her and anyone else not enjoying good health at the moment.

Have a good day everyone whatever you’re doing x

Oops Lins- silly me! Don't take any notice of me folks! It is next week.

Urmstongran Sat 19-Oct-19 07:23:35

Will you get chance for a snooze later like me kitty*? I’m yawning and he’s had his ’Shreddies’ (his favourite at present) and watching a Thunderbird cartoon!

Ginny42 hope the weeks fly by for you!

Good Morning from a still darkish S Welsh coast.
Have a good time with your sister Mick.
We too will watch the rugby this morning.
All good wishes for gilly and her DH.
Not sure where you are Ginny42 but I think the clocks go back next Saturday, always the last Saturday in October.
Have a good day everyone.

Morning all from a chilly, but dry (I think) North Leicestershire.

All the children were up by 6am. shock

Today dh and I are taking a completely different dgd out for lunch and to buy clothes with her birthday money.

Wishing the gillybobs well.

Good morning Mick, Urmstongran 8moggie* and all who follow. Haven't looked out yet, but just seen on the calendar that the clocks go back tonight, so there should be a few lighter mornings.

I'd love to be going for Breakfast in Brown's Mick and then having a browse round the market. Enjoy it. I love Oxford. Enjoy your time with your sister whatever you decide to do.

Wish my GS was here to waken me Urmston, you can have a rest when he's gone. I have to wait till Christmas now.

Hope we hear something from Gillybob, but she will know that we're thinking of her because she knows we leave get- well and caring messages every day.

flowers for Gilly and all who are feeling down or poorly this morning.

Morning Mick & all to follow from Palma. Up early to watch Rugby with DH.
I lit candles & prayed for everyone especially gillybob & her DH when we visited Palma cathedral on Thursday.
Enjoy your day with your sister mick.
Have a good day everyone.

Good morning Mick and everyone from South Manchester where it’s still dark. I’m up with the larks because 7y old grandson came for a sleepover and he was SO excited to be here when he woke up at 6am. Too early for us really but us oldies can have a snooze this afternoon! You can’t squash that joyous childhood enthusiasm can you?

Hope Saturday is kind to us all whether we have any plans or none. Plus a special good morning to gillybob I do hope your husband is making progress. x
