Good Morning Friday 21st February 2025

GrandMattie 6th March is World Book Day. The teacher was planning ahead. I'm cheaper than a professional 😂. I suppose if I had said no, she would have had to find another volunteer.

6th of March grandMattie I think people are planning ahead.

Good morning Mick and all. We are under Yellow Warnings here for rain today and wind on Sunday. I shall sit back and dream of Spring, warm sunshine and daffodils! They can't be too far away now? Please?
A very happy Golden Weekend to the Baubles - and in such a beautiful place too.
And happy 70th to Anna pops.
I too have been wondering about Mizuna, but I know she sometimes has a posting sabbatical so I'm trusting all is well.
I hope those missing specs have revealed themselves Madeleine. The trouble with losing them is that you need them to help you find them 😉
I really have nothing of any interest to report from here. The rain has now reached us and hatches are battened down. The kitchen is about to get its daily sprucing up as am I and January's tai chi paperwork is still glaring at me from across the room.
Enjoy your day everyone x

Many happy returns of the days Annapops 7️⃣0️⃣ 🎉🎁🍸

Happy 70th birthday Annapops 🎉

Is it World Book Day?
When teaching and didn't know it was, I'd say I was "Old Spice" to the teacher's amusement - that was in the age of the Spice Girls.

A late good morning from a blustery and damp Northampton. No need to go out today, no dance classes as it is half term, so a day at home lies ahead. I will probably clean the bathrooms and then vacuum the bedrooms and the stairs. Will not be looking for any more jobs after that.

Enjoyed the cinema yesterday, watched the screening of David Tennant's Macbeth; quite an avant garde production I thought. Not much was made of the witches scenes and very little of Lady Macbeth's *Out damned spot" speech, although her scene one soliloquy was very well done.
After my lovely cocktail for Bridget Jones on Wednesday, I thought a glass of red wine an apt drink to watch the film!

Chicken curry thawing out in the fridge for dinner tonight, so only rice to cook.

Happy Golden Wedding anniversary Mr and Mrs Baubles 🎉🍾🍴💐

Lost spectacles? Sounds as if it’s time to raise a prayer to St Anthony, Madeleine!

Good morning Mick and all from a windy northwest coast.
A quiet day yesterday, DD catching up with old school friends.
We leave for the south in her car this morning and I’m pleased with my new really small suitcase, which still manages to have four wheels. I will stay with DD until Tuesday with a trip into London, then home alone by train.

Happy birthday Annapops and congratulations Baubles.

Annapops happy 70th birthday 🎂🍾🥳

Good morning everyone from south Manchester where it was very windy last night. It’s damp so we must have had rain. Alexa says 13°C and overcast today. We have no plans after a great night out last night, until we babysit later.

Now to read all your posts as I’m late on parade!

Good morning all and as GG and Redcar have said ‘it’s damp, mild and dreary’, here in Essex. No wind as yet though.

Dd, dgd6 and I had a lovely afternoon yesterday, baking, making smoothies and constructing an Emerald City out of boxes, glitter and paint, for homework. DGD is going as Dorothy for world book day at school.
We ended the afternoon watching the original Wizard of Oz film, always brilliant , first shown in 1939. Amazing!

Today I’ll pop to the bank with my premium bond cheque.🥳.
I like to receive a cheque, rather than my winning going straight into my account. Why! 🤷🏻‍♀️.
We’ll be off to the pub to meet our Friday pals for the weekly news and nibbles and a glass or two. 🍷🍷🍺🍺.

Happy Golden wedding anniversary Baubles . Have a lovely weekend 🌟🍾🎉.

Happy 70th Annapop enjoy your time with all your family 🎈🎊. I love a murder mystery! 😱.

Enjoy the day, miserable weather allowing! 🌱
