Good Morning Everyone,
Its dark but looking dry here in Brackley at the present moment.
Today, will be paying off remainder of the shows booked for next year ,as operator has got pre xmas closing dates.
The latest version of Lion King is out on DVD today, plus I want to buy a trowel with a telescopic handle so I can maintain around parents graves.

The only spinning going on here, is in my head! ???

Hi Parsley3

Spinning? I’m impressed! My exercise today will be a stroll 3 blocks along to the bar this afternoon!

Good morning from sunny North Yorkshire. It’s showing up the dust on the sideboard so guess what I shall be doing this morning...
Out for a walk later and a Board Meeting tonight for which I have to do some prep so I really must get cracking!
Thoughts with those who are poorly or have struggles today.

Marydoll Mon 18-Nov-19 08:57:44

Good morning Parsley, are you a new poster?
Welcome!

Parsley3 Mon 18-Nov-19 08:55:21

Good morning, all. Very cold and frosty here in Central Scotland but the sky is blue and the sun is shining.
Off to a spin class soon for my daily exercise. ?‍♂️
Have a good day!

gilly- sorry was absent over weekend and only trying to catch up. Hoping you have some better news about your DH, keep your head held up high you have been amazing through this journey. You know you are such thought of here on GN although we are all virtual friends - they are good ones. Take care, my thoughts are with you. flowers

A beautiful morning here on the S Welsh coast but it's cold.
Didn't sleep well unfortunately.
Hope your nausea improves Marydoll, I had forgotten about taking ginger for it. I used to eat a ginger biscuit when I suffered from morning sickness, now that was a long time ago.
Hope all those who are unwell feel better soon.
Thinking of gilly and her husband, hope his slight improvement continues.

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. Yippee! It’s stopped raining in South Yorkshire! I have an evil, stinking cold?, but I intend to go for a walk today before we do the school run. Not that we will see much of GS as he is having tea with a friend today, so it will be hello, a quick hug and goodbye! I’ll take that.
Kindest thoughts to Gilly and all who are struggling. Have a good day folks.

Good morning from Shropshire.
Cancelled our plans for today as I seem to have caught this wretched cold and cough doing the rounds and DH overdid it a bit yesterday.
Our DGD really enjoyed her birthday party yesterday,I don’t think she stopped smiling all day.
Marydoll,hope the nausea settles down and you get the anti sickness medication.If not ginger or travel sickness bands can help.
Maw and everyone else unwell sending get well wishes.
Sending love and prayers to gilly and hope the improvement in her DH continues.x

Oh I do like your description of stale bread Grammaretto?
May use it in future and explain when I open the wrapper to stale contents I shall cry, oh no, the bread is lost?

Marydoll Mon 18-Nov-19 08:30:14

Thought I would share this view from my bedroom.
It's very atmospheric, with mist, swirling in the trees. The photo doesn't do it justice.

Grammaretto Mon 18-Nov-19 08:27:16

Hello everyone from the Scottish Borders. My phone tells me it's minus 2 up on this cold hill.
I like being one big friendly clique!!
Welcome back Gabriella!
Happy birthday Marydolly jnr
I'm being called to breakfastof pain perdu stale bread sounds so much better in French.
Hoping for improvement for the Gillybobs

MawB Mon 18-Nov-19 08:25:58

Perhaps they stopped en route for a wee GabriellaG ?

Kalu Mon 18-Nov-19 08:20:26

Good morning all. As perishing as Marydoll has said here in. Glasgow. Just wanted to snuggle in my cosy bed but workmen are due at any time.

Not a pleasant description of the GM thread Marydoll, I would describe it as friendly and supportive so, sorry to hear you feel rotten today. My all time stomach upset remedy is ‘flat’ Irn Bru, works every time, due to the ginger content. Take care

On that note, hope the nonsense didn’t upset you yesterday Kitty. Not a description any of us know you by at all

A snuggle up day for you Maw doing nothing but whatever you feel like doing. A duvet day sounds about right.

Hope you are given a bit more good news gilly ??

Have a pleasant day all and some strength to those dealing with troubled times.

Morning all from a bright but chilly South Notts.

Off on a longish this morning and in a hotel for the night, something I haven't done for ages and for the first time by myself so a little nervous.

Hope all is well with everyone, especially gillybob and all those with worries.

GabriellaG54 Mon 18-Nov-19 08:17:29

Morning all...
This will be short as the boiler guys said 8am and not here yet. I HATE people turning up late for appointments.
No excuse as they know what traffic is like and there are apps re diversions.
I'll be having words...???
I hope everyone has the best day possible. ?
Keep warm and take care.

Good morning from a dry but overcast NE.
Happy birthday to Marydoll's GD, so cute at that age.
Another day of housework, my guests are not particularly tidy people.
Thoughts are with gilly this morning and hoping that improvement is maintained.

Nanabanana1 Mon 18-Nov-19 08:10:39

Good morning to everyone, dry and bright here in Torbay looks like a good weather day ahead?
Shopping today after dog walk. Not much else going on today.
Wishing everyone a good day.

Sar53 Mon 18-Nov-19 08:02:30

Good morning everyone from a dry and bright Essex by the sea. We are off to the bank this morning to open a joint account, solely for household bills. I hope they don't keep us waiting as DH is a stickler for punctuality!!!
He will drive to a business meeting afterwards and I will have a mooch around the shops and go home on either the bus or train.
I hope everyone who is under the weather feels better soon and love to Gilly and her husband.
Who said we were cliquey, I can't think of anything further from the truth.
Anyway have a good Monday everyone.

Good Morning from a frosty but beautiful Fife. Been away last the days as have had our 2 x DGs"s all weekend. What a joy they were, kept us on our toes but a very good weekend. Credit to their parents I would say. Off out this morning to catch up with friend and hand over her birthday pressie, can't believe where this year has gone. Bet I missed loads on GN over the weeknd - sorry! Anyway for those under the weather look after yourself and just keep on going. Marydoll - hope you manage lunch. Keep you chin up everyone it'll soon be Christmas wink

ninathenana Mon 18-Nov-19 07:58:51

Good morning all.
Damp and grey in Kent. H will cook breckie about 9 am. He does love his full English, I will have a small English. I need to phone GP surgery as there was an item left off the repeat prescription request that I e-mailed them. Not for the first time either ggggrrrr. A few other bits of admin to do too.
Thoughts are with gilly, I seem to miss updates regarding her husband.
Have a good day everyone.

Yiayia4 Mon 18-Nov-19 07:56:54

Morning all,looks like it's dry and cold here.
It's been a great weekend but feel so tired and ache everywhere this morning so a quiet day for me.

Get better soon Maw and Marydoll love to Gilly and have a good Monday everyone.

moggie Mon 18-Nov-19 07:55:27

Good morning Mick & all from dry, grey Castleton. A short walk this morning after breakfast & call at Bakewell on way home. Went to Treak Cliff Cavern y’day learned all about Blue John stone & mining. Very pretty caves worth s visit.
Hope you get something for your nausea Marydoll & your DGD has a lovely birthday.
Thoughts are with Gillybob & her DH.
Hope all not well well or struggling with health or worries have a better day.
Have a good day everyone.

Urmstongran Mon 18-Nov-19 07:51:34

Yes Ginny42 ginger biscuits do seem to settle nausea - well remembered.
