Good Morning Wednesday 3rd September 2025

Good Morning from Durham. It’s a cool, wet start here. DGS1 absolutely loved his first day st school yesterday. I took him for an ice-cream afterwards after dropping Little Dog off. I’ve a friend coming for coffee this morning, as I’m stuck in all day, awaiting a delivery. At the moment it’s still 7sm to 9pm, but I hope they send me a 2 hour window. I’ve household chores to do after the dog went home!

Best wishes to all. X

We are having the weird experience of waking up to 17C this morning. It will stay the same until about 6pm!

Good morning from a wetting Bristol.
I have been sleeping badly again for a while, so last night’s effort was very welcome, as I have just woken up.
I’m sorry you’re feeling so meugh, madeleine; not sleeping well is such a bummer.
Thank you for all your suggestions and support regarding the repairs to our complex. I shall send them copy the hyperlinks and send them to my fellow conspirators and we shall discuss at our meeting on Friday.
The manager of another site, who is keeping an eye on us (one or fewer visits a week), has said that she is spending ages trying to get the repairs done, but the company that Anchor has contracted is absolutely hopeless. Grrr…
I’m getting on really well with my quilt as I’m sewing the last “straps” (hiding the seams) before edging, and voila , done.
My neighbour’s DGS and his wife are expecting a baby next month, and I have offered them a little quilt for the baba, so I’ve got more sewing to keep me quiet fire a while.
FAB cafe this morning and a Townswomen’s Guild this afternoon. The central organisation has shut down, but I think we might carry on independently.
Have a good day, enjoy the rain, keep safe. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning all from another wet morning in north Wales where I’ve just had a fright…😱. Mr PG sat in his dressing gown in the sitting room having been awake since 3am, he knows not why! I might change the bedding to flannelette R&L as we too might be feeling a chill in 5he early hours.

A new tyre is needed on the old jalopy before her MOT later this month, and yes, anything that runs so brilliantly at minimal expense is definitely female in my book 😉

I’ll pop in later and read of all your doings…

Good morning from wet s somerset, lots of rain all day today

A delivery is arriving at 8, I don`t really need any of it now but it was a good price reduction and I can slot it all away. I had been trying one in and one out but that isn`t going to work when I get a good offer from ocado

I don`t see anything I really need to do in the house, no maintenance or anything so I can spend my time doing nice cosy things today

Have a good day

Good morning Mick and all GN's on a very dark morning here in north yorkshire. Cant even see the outline of the tree, so dont know what the weather is up to but no sound of rain so far.

Was up very early just after 4am, rubbish night and full of aches and pains, so in lieu of sleep at least I had a shower which helped a bit. Had a horrid day yesterday, and did not get all I wanted done for today. Had joined a queue to get the boots offer of a beauty calendar, which I wanted to get to be a present for my daughter in law. The email came through and then the laptop went wrong and it promptly disappeared. Took me literally hours to get through to appropriate person in Boots and then went to pay and when I paid with a card which I have done before it then wanted me to do an extra check which I wasnt able to do, so then they wouldnt accept my payment. Frustration and annoyance as that was time I could have been getting things ready for today.

Anyway that can go hang for now and I am just getting breakfast and starting to collect things together to take to the car, but still so dark leaving it by the door, at the ready . Then will check through list, do the thermos flasks last minute and hopefully have a decent drive up and no hold ups.

Hope you all have a good day today and will catch up with posts later tonight . Take care and be kind to yourselves

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. It’s dry at the moment in South Yorkshire but we are in for much rain today apparently. GS cut the lawn and a hedge yesterday and then we/he spent the afternoon making a curry which was very nice. He stayed over so today he will help me to move some furniture that I need to clean behind this morning. I have writer’s group at the library this afternoon and he has some writing of his own to do so that should keep us both busy until he goes home with his father this evening.
Have the best day you can, folks.

Good morning, it’s raining, dark and chilly here in south Glos, I need to get my warmer duvet out, I think that’s possibly why I’m not sleeping well.
I have the dentist and hygienist this morning, I know I’ve lost a filling so I’m not looking forward to seeing him.
I need to buy some milk while I’m out and I fancy getting rhubarb for a crumble.
Besides that I haven’t got anything else planned so more arty stuff this afternoon I think.
I hope you have a nice day 🌹
