Good morning Mick and everyone.

It sounds from the traffic going by that it's wet out but it's too dark to see.
A day of pottering for me, enjoy whatever your doing.

Morning mick, morning nina, morning all.

It's dry and cold in North Leicestershire. Pootling and faffing this morning and school run in Derby this afternoon.

Glad you are getting on with Windows 10, mick and I'm impressed with having a printer for 10 years. Ours usually last about 13 months.

Good morning Mick and all from a wet Aberdeenshire. At least the wind has gone down. Another sewing day, I think and shall attack the ironing pile. It's a job I don't mind...much better than cleaning the oven! Have a good day everyone.

Good morning everyone. Cold and dark but with a clear, starry sky. Back to archery this morning, but I'm not really looking forward to it. The leisure centre management have decided in their wisdom to turn off heating in the sports hall for the winter, because they 'don't feel it is needed' (in other words to save money)! Oddly enough the empty gym, reception area, offices etc. are still well heated. So I'm taking in a thermometer to check the temperature and if it's too cold, there could be a mass walk out. Watch this space! smile Hope its a good day for all.

Good morning, it seems very dark this morning and quite cool.
No plans because we are waiting for the plumber.
Lunch out yesterday was a little too spicy and sisters and I ended up taking Gaviscon, Italian sauces can be variable.

Good Morning from a very frosty Black Country.

Just back from taking my Partner to the train station, back to work today after 2 days off with a sickness bug!

Looks like it may be a chilly but sunny day today, so may join one of the many Health walks organised in this area. I have not done the Wednesday one yet. I have to say oldgaijin I would prefer ironing to oven cleaning any day smile

Hope you all have a good day.

Good morning All x
Dark, cold, dry and crisp this morning. Slight light looking Eastwards so that's promising. Venus bright and clear.

Not feeling too clever even though I'm over the Christmas lurgy, takes longer to get over being unwell these days sad
I must pull myself together !

Hope all is well with everyone today.

Gagagran Wed 09-Jan-19 07:38:59

Good Morning all. Colder but dry and calm here on the south coast.

DH did a first-rate pruning and clearing job in the back garden yesterday and even took the arisings to the tip. I shall help with the front garden, when we get round to it, but yesterday I had ironing, mending and baking to do so was busy indoors.

Today, he is off out with his bike club and i have a hair appointment and choir this evening.

Hope those who are unwell begin to improve and that we all have a good day. sunshine

Good Morning all and to those who follow. It's quite dark here at the moment in Fife but from what I can see it's quite frosty. Hopefully the sun will show its little head today too. Looking forward to getting DGS1 today who shall keep us on our toes. Delivery of building stuff will be here today in a big lorry so DGS1 will just love that. Hope everyone has a good day.

NanKate Wed 09-Jan-19 07:56:50

Morning Mick and All.

Glad you are getting to grips with your updated computer Mick.

I too must get on with the ironing that I do very occasionally when neatly ironed clothes are few and far between in our wardrobes.

Calm and cold in South Bucks.

Pittcity Wed 09-Jan-19 07:57:11

Good morning from a cold, wet Colchester.
Usual Wednesday coffee meetup this morning.

Marydoll Wed 09-Jan-19 08:02:53

Good morning from a frosty Glasgow, it's -2 here.

I'm off out to meet a friend for lunch and a bit of retail thereapy. I haven't seen her since before Christmas, so we will have lots of catching up to do.

Have a good day everyone.

Greyduster Wed 09-Jan-19 08:10:31

Good morning Michael and all GNs. It looks rather grey in South Yorkshire this morning. We had a good walk yesterday and I am paying the price today with a very sore hip. These things are sent to try us! I will hasten slowly..... Have a good day folks!

BlueSapphire Wed 09-Jan-19 08:26:17

Good morning all. It's very frosty in Northampton this morning , so had better wrap up warm when I go out today.
Meeting a friend in town today for lunch.
Vet has set my mind at rest re cats; she gave her a thorough check over, says she's fit and well, not lost weight, and the behaviour is probably cattery related, ie they are sulking, and just let them be, so I will just see what happens.
Hope your day goes well.

Grammaretto Wed 09-Jan-19 08:35:18

Good morning all from the 0 degrees
Scottish Borders.
Back to the routine today. Coffee with friends this morning to knit and natter. Badminton this evening if all are well enough.
I think I have windows 10 already. How would I know?

loopylou Wed 09-Jan-19 08:37:36

Good morning everyone from frosty north Wiltshire, it's definitely chilly here! I'll need to scrape the ice off the car before popping into the village for a few errands this morning.

NfkDumpling Wed 09-Jan-19 08:44:17

Morning All

Bright and breezy here in the north of Norfolk - and 4C on my nice new outside thermometer.

A day in today as there’s a pile of ironing and a second load of marmalade oranges sitting in the kitchen - under the heap of washing up I didn’t get around to doing last night.

Mapleleaf Wed 09-Jan-19 08:51:05

Good morning.
It's a brightish looking day so far, with patches of blue showing through. Very calm, still and chilly. As I type, the birds are busy feeding from the feeders then diving back into the hedge for cover and warmth.
A pottering day today, although I do plan to fit in a brisk walk as I feel in need of a bit of exercise.
Hope you all have a decent day, and willow10 I hope you find the hall warm enough. If not, I agree with you, put in a complaint! ?

angelic Wed 09-Jan-19 08:51:53

Morning all
Bright, sunny and cold in Hampshire. Having a day at home trying to have a de-clutter, we seemed to have accumulated so much stuff, so got boxes for Recycling, Charity Shops etc
Have a good day all and take care

Anniebach Wed 09-Jan-19 08:54:43

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

I have an eye test today, in my house, The Outside Clinic.

Hope everyone has a good day x

DoraMarr Wed 09-Jan-19 08:56:37

Good morning from a bright and cold Birmingham. I slept in until 8.30- odd, because I was expecting a restless night before my first radiotherapy appointment this afternoon. I’ll do some shopping this morning and buy something really delicious for tea, then an early lunch and off to the hospital. I hope everyone has a good day. Have fun exploring windows10 Michael!

Urmstongran Wed 09-Jan-19 09:01:53

Good morning everyone from a breezy but sunny Malaga. I had a night of very vivid dreams in which I felt quite apprehensive. I was glad when I woke up!
All best wishes DoraMarr for this afternoon.

David1968 Wed 09-Jan-19 09:07:23

Good morning GNs, from a very bright, sunny, frosty and beautiful morning in the Morecambe Bay area of Lancashire. The (low) sun appears today as a huge glowing ball - stunning! (As opposed to being a wee blot between the clouds, as it has on recent dull/grey days.) Wishing you all a happy day ahead.
