Good Morning Monday 10th October 2022

Good morning all from a still dark North Leicestershire..

Today, is our 52nd wedding anniversary. So glad we kept ' in sickness and in health' in the vows

Wow, Grey ! Some achievement. What is the planet accompanying the full moon ATM? Venus?

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. It’s still very dark in South Yorkshire and I am having my cuppa early because the plumbers are expected this morning to start three or four days of work on the new heating system. DD and her menfolk came over for a late roast dinner yesterday and it was very enjoyable. GS was on good form and we played a very noisy competitive game to round off the evening. Good to have company.
Dentist for me later and I will have to ‘fess up to murmurings from one of my back teeth. Aargh!!!
I took this photo the night before last in no great expectation that it would show what I hoped, and to my great surprise, four of Jupiter’s moons! That’s a photographic first for me.
Have the best day you can folks.

Good morning everyone, thanks to DDog I have been awake since 4am ?, goodness knows what she was barking at!
It’s damp here too, we really need more rain. I was planting bulbs ( ? helpfully suggested ?) yesterday and the soil was like dust 6” down. I have yet more to plant, I didn’t realise I had ordered so many but it should look lovely in the spring. Lots of pink and white dwarf tulips, narcissi, crocuses and hyacinths.
I hope you all have a good week x

Good morning from Leamington. I haven't a clue what the weather is doing although I did hear rain during the night.
A very busy weekend. Saturday was party day for E, her 7th birthday on Sunday. 13 excited children, mainly girls. DD1 and I deserved our glass of wine when it had finished ?.
Yesterday 6 of us went bowling, Good fun, I haven't bowled for years and I came 2nd.
DGD1 is taking part in the WAGS show, Guides and Scouts. Rehearsals every Sunday afternoon til the show next March. We are all very proud that she passed the audition for the show .
DD1 and I are going to Stratford today. A look around the shops and probably lunch. Tomorrow I return home.
I hope Monday is kind to everyone, much love xx

Good morning, our final day in Oslo, it was bright and sunny yesterday after a cloudy start, today looks promising.
We leave in an hour for the airport.
I am looking forward to looking out of the plane window as we fly over the fjords.
It was a busy flight over as it was “Potato Week” for the Norwegians! It’s was traditionally the potato harvest so the schools are closed.
It seems most of them visited the UK and were returning on our flight in.

Good morning all from Torbay where sun is promised when it eventually rises! .

I’m glad your family enjoyed “Six”, grandMattie. I was impressed by the historical accuracy, the costumes, the music and the clarity of the words since there is no dialogue with the story being relayed entirely through song.

Yesterday’s lunch was a carvery which I enjoyed but, having a small appetite, I find the approach of some diners who pile their plates high, verges on the obscene. Inevitably, some is wasted, as was the case with two of our party.

Enjoy your day out, cornergran! I hope today begins a good week for us all. ?????

Morning Mick, morning All. Sorry, no idea what it’s doing outside other than our corner of Somerset is very dark. Don’t want to disturb Mr C by checking.

Awake since silly o’clock, getting very weary but no point fretting about it. As sunshine is forecast Mr C has requested we venture forth, destination currently unknown.

Wishing you well with the hospital visits and procedures mick, don’t blame you for taking a trip out while you can but please be careful, try not to be at any risk. Will be thinking of you and all facing health challenges.

Hope Monday is kind to us all.

Good morning from E Kent. Rain is due, but I haven’t heard it yet.
The family went off before lunch; I dropped them off at Ramsgate to pick up HS1 to London. They had a wonderful day; loved the musical “Six”.
DL and I had a quiet rest of the day.
Today, cleaner, gardener, bedding and baking - I’m doing WI teas tomorrow night, I thought I was doing November. Glad we are having leftovers for dinner tonight.
Happy with everyone’s good news. Have a good day. Carpe diem. ??????
