Good Morning Monday 29th June 2026

Good morning from cloudy Cornwall where the temperature was bearable yesterday and looks to be the same today. Phew. I'm cat-sitting at my daughter-in-law's in a different town but the cat is having a right old huff and ignoring me. 😁 Her home is in a town centre but it's surrounded by tall trees and the jackdaws are making an absolute racket! There's a bus in half an hour to St Ives so I think I may catch that. I've missed the place a lot recently and anyway I have extreme cabin fever from a week of heat. 😎

Good morning from Bristol. We only had the lightest and shortest of showers yesterday morning. Just enough to freshen the atmosphere.
The night temperature has come down and I had a really good sleep.
I came home from church to find DS making himself a drink. I joined him, then made his full English, I had eaten before going out. We then chatted over the paper before taking the bus to DDs, saving SiL a trip.
It was a bit of a mixed time there as Iris was cross (as usual) this time because she didn’t want her mother and father to go out. I find her very difficult.
We had a pizza each in the garden but the wind was making the oven go out, or misbehave.
DS had tickets for a Metallica concert so was taking the train to Cardiff soon after eating, I decided to go home. I was tired and spent a quiet afternoon and evening.
Tesco this morning, dermatologist follow up appointment at the “other” hospital this afternoon. Easy bus journey.
I hope you are enjoying this fresher weather. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning from south Glos, high clouds here and it’s pleasantly cool.
I spent an hour of so beginning the tackling of the back garden yesterday, I will do one small area at a time. I was pleased with my efforts so will do more today. I’ll be out there by 7 and enjoy the cool.
I yanked out armfuls of crocosmia, chopped back the rosemary bush and fed and topped up the potted roses after giving them a thorough watering.
My tomato plants are fruiting, looking good at the moment.
I need to wash the floors this morning and do some washing and the usual chores.
Hope you have a good day 🌹

Morning all from West Oxfordshire. The day is due to be cooler, In fact I put my summer duvet on last night.

We now have about 40 jars worth of honey which OH took off yesterday. He will leave it to settle before putting it in jars.

Our cleaner isn’t coming today (will come tomorrow) as her daughter’s Sports Day has been rescheduled and she would like to go.

The gardener is due this afternoon. The back garden in particular looks so wild after the recent rain and heat.

There is a Book Group coffee morning today in the village cafe. I’ll toddle down to that and also return a dress I bought from Roman. I think someone on here recommended them. It is a beautiful dress but tight on the bust and far too long.

Have a good day. Wr should be having a respite this week from tropical weather before it returns with a vengeance next weekend

Good morning everyone.
I think we will take ourselves in the direction of Padstow today,.we’ll have a wander and maybe a boat trip, weather and tides permitting.
Perhaps a pasty for lunch and then see where else we fancy going.
Hope the day is kind to you all.
