Good morning.

Not looked out yet but feels cold.

Shopping all done so will go for walk today and try and get rest of red wine out of the carpet (long story).

Morning all. Thanks for starting the thread, Beechnut - no offence but it will be nice when Mick is back.

North Leicestershire is cold, as dragonfly said, but it seems calm out there.

Brunch for DH and DS1 before they go to the match where there is yet another new manager!!

A walk to the florist this morning then a big sit down this afternoon for me.

Enjoy your days.

Morning everyone.
The sun is just coming up in Kent. It's dry and chilly.
Nothing planned today, just a bit of pottering then finish a jigsaw this afternoon.

Enjoy whatever your doing.

Morning to everyone and to those who follow. Its dark and damp in Fife today. Thought Mick may have been back today. Have quite a lot to do before DD and 2 x DG's appear. Can''t believe it's Saturday again time is flying by. Hope everyone manages a good day.

Morning everyone. Thanks to Doramar and NanJan for their support yesterday. Sorry Rufus if the name Black Country upsets you. It's very dark and looks too cold to venture out yet. May venture to the gym later.

Gòod morning all. Not yet light in Aberdeenshire . 0 degrees according to the weather app. More snow play today perhaps with DGC. We went to the ballet yesterday. Scottish Ballet are doing special short performances for tiny children. suits me too

Marydoll Sat 19-Jan-19 07:52:30

Good morning all from a cold Glasgow. We had a sprinkling of snow last night, but thank goodness most of it has gone!

Bits and bobs to do today and then we have DGD this afternoon. We are so looking forward to her visit!

Enjoy your Saturday, everyone.

Good morning from a grey south east. Up early this morning as grandchildren are staying with us from yesterday after school until Sunday evening. It's cold but will have to come up with some outdoor activities, hope to do a long walk in Bushy Park sometime today.

Have an enjoyable Saturday everyone.

Morning All from a grey and damp corner of Somerset. Didn’t manage a food shop yesterday so will venture forth this morning then really must tidy our dumping ground of a spare room. Hope Saturday is kind to everyone.

Good morning everyone. I just had a lovely day with my moko (Maori word for grandchild). We baked flaky pastry cinnamon rolls and pigs in blankets; watched Time Team on DVD, read lots of books on history and mysteries.
Wonderful!
It's 9pm now so tired and happy, I'll go clean up the kitchen a bit then lie down to listen to a cowboy book, 'The Mustangers'.
Have a good day y'all thanks

Morning all from quiet dark Wicklow. Very few cars going by on main road outside. First morning this week I was hoping to sleep a little later but of course I’m awake! grin So pleased to read Mick is ok and hopefully we will hear from him soon. Ironing and a visit to MIL in NH for me today. Meal out tonight with friends after rugby match. Have a good day, Gransnetters

Morning All

The outside thermometer is just under 0 degrees and there’s a very thin layer of ice on the pond. An apricot sunrise - very pretty!

Nothing planned for today apart from a walk to the shops to buy a paper. Lazy days.

NanKate Sat 19-Jan-19 08:07:43

Morning Beechnut Kitty Mary and all the Good morning folk.

I thinkMaw said Mick will return to us on Monday or early next week.

Grey and cold in South Bucks, I prefer it sunny and cold.

Off to the Garden Centre that has an Edinburgh Wool shop within in it as I want to try on some of their trews. I like soft feeling trousers, jersey, rather than jean type trousers and I think they sell them.

Have a good weekend folks.

PS I don’t know what has been said about the Black Country but my grandparents lived there and when I visited the Black Country Museum a few years back it reminded me what a lovely sense of humour they have.

Morning all! Dark and damp and 5degreesC here on the south coast. (Don't know how to do the degrees sign!)

DH is going out with his bike club this morning and I shall be pottering again. Nothing special, just sorting out some more "stuff" - where does it all come from?

Hope Mick gets his computer sorted out and is back with us pdq and that we all have a good day. sunshine

Pittcity Sat 19-Jan-19 08:30:45

My phone had yesterday's morning thread open as well as this one so I posted on the wrong one.....confused

Good morning from a cold Colchester. It dawned bright here but the clear blue sky is beginning to cloud over and sleet is forecast.
DH is out so I think I will be lazy and catch up on TV and reading. We are finishing up fridge and freezer oddments so no shopping needed.

harrigran Sat 19-Jan-19 08:41:43

Good morning, overcast but dry here in the NE.
A quiet day with the newspapers for me.
GD's computer, three weeks old, malfunctioned and we had to return it to the manufacturer yesterday. I guess sometimes we are just unlucky.

TwiceAsNice Sat 19-Jan-19 08:55:48

Looks grey and cold out of the window in Surrey today. Walking to the shop for papers in a bit then family coming for brunch. I need to finish some on line work training later then can do as I like so lazyish day later. Have a good day everyone

Good morning from a dull and overcast Black Country.

Taking 2 of my DGD's (7 and 10) to the local Panto (Dick Whittington) this afternoon. So it will be a walk into town, lunch then the show! Although it is not a professional show, they are always good fun.

Then a relaxing evening I hope.

Have a good Saturday everyone.

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Not going anywhere, not seeing anyone.

Heavy rain in Mid Wales.

Hope everyone has a good day x

Good morning all. Dry chilly day in East Northants. Quick trip to Waitrose and then a quiet day before tonight's golden wedding anniversary party. 50 years with the same partner is quite an achievement - I never managed more than ten! ?

Greyduster Sat 19-Jan-19 09:01:29

Good morning, Gransnetters. Cold, grey and damp in South Yorkshire. We had a flurry of snow yesterday. I really should go into town today but I am loathe to leave DH on his own. He is still not moving very well. I thought there would be some improvement by now. We’ll see how the day unfolds. Have a good day folks.

Mapleleaf Sat 19-Jan-19 09:02:55

Good morning
It's grey and cold here in South Yorkshire. We had some snow showers last night but none at the moment, though looking at the sky, there's a chance for that to change.
DH got home from work earlier and when he opened the door there was an icy blast, so if we do go out later, we'll need to wrap up warmly.
I hope you all have a good day. ?

Good morning from grey Aberdeenshire. It's my daughter's 43rd birthday, so shall ring her in a minute once my tea has brewed.
Am going to a Burns lunch today...Hope the speeches don't drag on as I need to take my laptop to get sorted. Windows 10 has got its knickers in a twist...again. Have a good day all.
