Good Morning Monday

Goodmorning all from a wonderful sunny Norfolk. Have just come in from giving zebedee a bath he is now one very shiny black alpaca baby. Has to look his best as he is off to school later. A lovely special needs school we have visited before. He just loves people especially children I can see lots of alpaca cuddles coming up. Hope the sun lifts everyones spirits. Have a lovely day.

Good morning everyone.
Dry and mild in Kent.
I'm currently sitting at the hospital waiting to have a blood test. They open at 8am but there were already 20 people queueing outside at 7.50am. So I will be here a while.
Nothing else planned for today.
Hope you all have a good one.

Welcome AllotmentLil what a great name.

Sparkling, welcome to you too. Lins, thanks, I missed Sparkling's post.

It's good to see more posters, you have done a grand job Mick in starting this thread.

Good Morning Mick and everyone.
It is dry with us on the S Welsh coast.

Welcome to the new posters on this thread especially those I didn't mention by name yesterday as I didn't read their posts until much later in the day - Applegran and NumNum
Are you new to the thread Sparkling? If so welcome.

Num Num, we have enjoyed many lovely holidays in France over the last 35 years at various times of the year.

I felt sad over the weekend as Saturday was the 35th anniversary of my mother's death and I still feel her loss keenly. Our daughter, (the GD she sadly never knew ) is currently in Berlin and she text me to say that she had lit a candle in the Cathedral there for her and our family. I was very touched.

A quiet day in store for us as DH is still recovering from his illness.
Hope that everyone will have a good day. Special thoughts to those going through tough times.

AllotmentLil, welcome. There are a few grans up your way, it's good to see a new poster, adds to the mix!
Are you a gardener?

Good morning from a bright mild Essex. Was hoping for a dry day today for my dear friend's husbands funeral as rain just adds to the sorrow. I hope everything goes as well as can be on these occasions. Wishing everyone the best day they can and I do think is just around the corner. Xxx

Good morning everybody from a dry and, so far, calm NE Scotland. It’s my first Good Morning and I wish everybody the best possible day. I know some of you are having a tough time so for you.
Spoke too soon as I can see the trees are definitely picking up speed!! A wild and windy day ahead I think.

Good morning Mick and all from a windy Glasgow.
It's nice to see so many newbies on the thread.

Nothing planned today, apart from delivering a wedding invitation, DD forgot to post. If the wind dies down, I should be able to combine the delivery with my compulsory walk. My heart rate is too fast, so I have to try and get it down with gentle exercise.

Best wishes to all who are poorly and sad, there are so many on GN just now.

Good morning from the Shropshire borders.A dry day forecast today.
I have the hairdressers this morning then meeting DH for lunch then a few things to do in town.
Thinking of all good morningers with illness and worries and wishing everyone the best day possible.
Thinking of you and DH gilly?

Good morning Mick and all from Cheshire where it's dry. Phone says it's 8C out, but it feels a bit chill.

I'm a little envious of GNs who have lots of time with GC. I'm too far away to be involved in his daily life and now I'm putting off a flight because of this blinkin' disease. Saying that, I've just had a long conversation with my DD!

A walk in the woods at 9.00 this morning, then shopping as the cupboard is bare.

There has been a lot of sadness on GN in recent days, but the community feels it when a member is hurting, and I'm glad we care enough to show compassion towards those who're struggling.

On that note, special wishes to all with worries or feeling unwell today.

Good Morning everyone
Quite bright in Oxfordshire this morning.
Monday morning again... weekends go so quickly!
Hi NumNum we are going to S W France in the summer and I can't wait!
Thinking of all and wishing everyone as good a day as possible

Goodmorning Mick and all x

Blue sky here in SE Essex, only a slight breeze after a very windy night!

Off to the gym this morning, then I might tackle the ironing.

Thinking of The Goodmorningers with troubles.

Good morning Mick and all his followers. It is a cloudless blue sky here in Suffolk and not as windy. Just heard the electric saw, so the landscapers are here already. Better get dressed then!

Thank you Pantglas2 and Grandmaof2.

I wasn't sure if anybody had seen my message yesterday as it was posted a bit late - thought I'd sneak on here a little earlier today!!

Good Morning from a cold and windy Fife, rain just starting too. Going to try and get docs appointment early today if I phone at 8. I have a small lump on my big toe with an abrasion on the side. Goodness knows what's causing it but I have to get it seen to. DD got on fine at hospital yesterday. Got medication to sort out his moles after he got 3 zapped. It's sad on GN at the moment but I hope support and comfort to those in need helps a bit. Thinking of everyone today. Take care.

Bonjour from a very grey, mild and damp France.

Enjoyed the rugby too BlueSapphire, but as you said, a disappointing result for England. The French team certainly turned up yesterday!!

Thinking of all those who are suffering and hope today is kind to everyone.

Good morning it is still blustery here so need to get some washing out!

Will go and see my mum today.

Thinking of Gilly and hoping marydoll is feeling better.

Morning all from a dry but dark north Wales and a special good morning to newbies NumNum, Applegran and Grandmaof2 - apologies if I missed anyone but I don’t always post every day so some are under my radar!

This thread is lovely (even when it’s sad IYKWIM) as folks look out for one another and are ready with an uplifting comment.

Not a lot planned today so just wish everyone a better day than yesterday x

Good morning everyone from South Manchester where it’s dry and the sky is getting light now. I can see the Pennines, the sky is pink there and a plane is on the descent, lights winking it’s way into Manchester airport.

We’ve beeb back from Spain 10 days now and although we’ve seen family I haven’t rung or met up with any friends yet. I think I must be in hibernate mode and ought to make some effort. It’s too easy at this time of year not to bother!

Hello to all the newbies this morning and thinking especially of all who are anxious or unwell.

Hope Monday is good to us all whether we have plans or none. x

Morning all from my bit of North Leicestershire. The sky is gradually getting lighter and it doesnt seem too cold.

A few bits of pootling and faffing this morning then collecting BiL from the station. He has been in the uk to attend his grandson's wedding and is staying here on his way home to Thailand. IYSWIM.

Sending support and love to all who need them but, as always, thinking about gilly and hoping for better news.

Good morning from Malta where I’m still in bed so can’t tell what the weather is doing.

Having my nails done this morning. My DGD in the US sends me a drawing of the design she wants me to have. Looks like I’m having hearts for Valentines! I don’t care as long as it makes her happy.?

Special thoughts for those with troubles and worries. Let’s hope Monday will be kind to us.

Good Morning from the Black Country. I have not looked outside yet.

Had a busy weekend, being with DD's two girls all day Saturday, then over to Lichfield to 'babysit' DS's two girls. I stayed overnight, then called into Mums on the way back. Brother and SIL were there so we had lunch.

This morning is my walking for Health walk

Thinking of all who are struggling with health and other worries, especially the gillybobs.

Thinking that should be. x

Good Morning, from the West Midlands. Looking forward to the day ahead, meeting friends.
Hope you all have a good day.
