Good Morning Everyone,
Its twilight but its dry here in Brackley this morning .
The usual routine of a bus ride into Bicester and back do a shop and maybe have a chat to those I know.
Health OK,
Take Care,
Mick

Good morning from Bristol. The temperatures are climbing again 🥵
Yesterday was quiet. In the early afternoon, I went with the church hall handyman to change the 50year old stage curtains. They were in a dire condition.
The person who measured them made a monumental dogs dinner, they were far too narrow. Quite honestly, I wouldn’t have paid for them as there was no hem either, just an overlocked edge, etc.
In the end, we put two narrow curtains on each side and the two back ones are to be ordered at the cost of another grand. As I didn’t do the measurements or ordering, I just went with it, but if I had I would have been incandescent and sent them back. They look ok, I suppose. At least, they are clean.
Today, I have a hygienist appointment, my Monday one was cancelled at the last minute as he was unwell. I’ve got someone else this morning.
In the afternoon, my hair salon is opening again. One of my two neighbours can talk the hind legs off a donkey. She is kind but is the original grumpy old woman. It’s exhausting.
I hope r&l is doing well after surgery; all the best to Mr. MD.

Good morning from Malta where it is sunny with a high of 39°C forecast.

Didn’t do anything to speak of yesterday. Today I have my nails at 11,30 so will have to get the car out of the garage. I use it so little I’m considering getting rid of it as it’s easy to get a cab and probably cheaper than running a car.

Hoping RosesandLilac is recovering from her surgery. Best of luck to Marydoll and Mr Marydoll for today.🙏🏻

Wishing you all the best day possible.☀️
