Good Morning Monday 7th September 2026

Sorry to hear you are in the sick bay FGT2, hope you feel better soon.
Safe journey to the Big Apple 🍎 georgesgran!
Madeleine you need to rest that leg....not drive here there and everywhere.
And Roses I think you are doing too much...

That’s bad luck FGT, I hope it passes quickly

I’ve now caught up with madeleine’s hospital visit, and hope that the cellulitis is improving. When I had it I could hardly walk and couldn’t put a shoe on because my foot was so swollen!
fgt I hope you feel better soon.

hollysteers, georgesgran and maria59 I hope you all have brilliant holidays!

Thank you all! I’ll be pleased when we’re there and in our hotel room - the travel is just a means to an end these days.
Checked in, sorted Assistance and we’ve to be gate 19 an hour before everyone else, for our flight to Heathrow. X

fgt I was just thinking how brave you are and hoping you were enjoying your week in Ibiza when I read your post. Hope you feel better soon. Take care

Good morning from the east coast. I’m just having a coffee then going to get ready to go to the gym.

Yesterday it was lovely to see DGS after his holiday he is so tanned. He is non conversational so he doesn’t tell us about his holiday. But judging by the pictures he has had a great time. His mother said there wasn’t a single meltdown and he was perfect. He starts his new special school this week and I’m very nervous .

I need to write three Thankyou cards this afternoon I’ve composed what I want to write so I just need to transfer it to the cards. They are to take to uncles assisted living on Wednesday for his life celebration gathering.

Thoughts to those struggling with stress and pain. 💐
Have a lovely day 🌼

And a happy holiday to Maria too! Egypt is far too hot for me!!

Georgesgran I am currently in Newcastle Airport awaiting a flight to Egypt.

Safe travels hollysteers 🌞

Good morning all from an overcast North Leicestershire.

A late visit from ne ad we had an urgent call to have Wolfie as he isn't well enough to go to school and neither parent was able to work from home.

I usually love the drive to their house - over the forest but today was stressful. Loads of cars, school buses, wobbly young cyclists, dog walkers, groups of children etc and me trying to make good time.

Wolfie is now Calpolled up, under a blanket in the lounge watching tv. And breathe.

Have the best day possible everyone.

Thank you Grandmabatty, it’s going to be hot, but I’m especially looking forward to Greek food👍

Overcast here , the sun is doing it’s best to struggle through the clouds
Another day of nothing to do !
Madeliene I think resting your leg means sitting with it up , not driving round Yorkshire
I hope MD s computer is sorted and her poor mouth better

Hollysteers have a lovely holiday

Good morning from sunny Lancashire.

I’ve had breakfast and I’m just finishing my tea in bed before my shower. We’ll be going for a walk once I’m up and dressed.

Happy Monday 🌹

Morning all from a damp but muggy West Oxfordshire. Rain is forecast later. It was lovely to see elder son and granddaughter over the weekend. She is back at school today and will be in Year 6! Unbelievable.

Usual Monday. Cleaner this morning, Waitrose shop and a bit of ironing.

OH will visit his bees. They were very aggressive yesterday when he took their honey. He will feed them today with some sugar syrup which he has concocted.

Have a good day - hope you feel better soon, FGT🌷

Good morning from Cloudy Chambers northwest coast. DD drove up from the south yesterday and I’m going to bed really early tonight towards our flight to Greece later.
I’ll wash my hair etc and finally decide what clothes I’m taking which I can’t seem to do earlier than the final day before leaving. Everything else is in the bag and neighbour ready to feed the cat. I’ll be glad of the change and feel ready for it.

I don’t know yet if DS is coming here or leaving from his own place to travel to the airport, he’s so laid back, he’s halfway to New Zealand…

So sorry you are unwell FGT and thoughts to HelterSkelter🌺

Good morning all.
A damp start to the day in Stockport.
I have a telephone appointment with a Pharmacist from my surgery today and a Sainsbury’s delivery, apart from that I shall do little, I could sleep for Olympic gold just now.
My GS went off to his first full day at 6th form college with no fuss but not much enthusiasm, we shall see, he seems so mature one minute and then withdrawn and his Autistic self the next.
I hope for a decent day for you all.

Good morning from Haverfordwest
Our second cottage is exceptionally good ,very contemporary . There’s a hot tub here. Wood fired. I feel like a piece of boiled brisket.
I think we’re just going to wander to the town this morning. We’ve done so much last few days. I’m a bit buggered.
Take care everyone.

Helterskelter💐

FGT sending you a virtual hug hope you feel better soon.

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. Autumn scent in the air.

The weekend was manic but also satisfying.
DD &co came with a trailer and took away furniture from her old room plus a large chest bound for his DP who have space.

Meanwhile my pottery and bric-a-brac sale was going on downstairs and the garden became a dog showground. There was a labradoodle and a Sheepoodle as well as smaller models. I had a large signboard out on the high street so Sunday dog walkers were directed down.

I was even asked if it was weekly and realised I had missed a trick. 😅

Today will be house paperwork after exercise class and a friend for supper.

HelterSkelter good luck with it all. It's still very early days.

So many here have your troubles but soldier on. Well done everyone!

Good morning from sunny Leicestershire.

Hoping my gardener will come today and cut the grass. My robot has gone on strike!
This afternoon I am seeing my osteopath to advise me on what to do next with my back.

Sorry to hear you are not well FGT hopefully you will feel better soon.
Wishing everyone the best day possible.

Just popping in to say good morning from damp South Lanarkshire.

Like so many others I have a lot on my mind just now and feel a little overwhelmed by events outwith my control.

My best wishes to you all whatever you are dealing with today.

Well sorry for me in Ibiza with a stomach bug
Up at 4:30am 6am and just now with stomach cramps and loose bowels

No breakfast for me and I feel washed out

Staying on my bed to rest this morning with water x

Gingster thank you. Dgs1 was up early for cuddles. Hes had breakfast and is playing in his room. Dgs2 got up later. He had his breakfast and is now watching his ipad while eating a pot of jelly! I've had a couple of stabs to remind me it's still there. It'll be a quiet day in between journeys
