Good Morning Everyone,
Its light and dry but there has been overnight frost in Brackley as well.
Usual day for me with bus trips into Buckingham and Bicester.

Morning Mick! Morning all.

Its bright but chilly in North Leicestershire. It doesnt look as though we had frost.

Collecting new curtains today then making brunch for DH and DS1 before they go to watch the football and I want to get some baking in the freezer for Easter weekend.

Morning Mick and all to follow.

Grey cloud in Kent but forecast is for sunny spells.
Up early today as it's DH's birthday and I thought I'd treat him to a lay in. He is always up first.
Take away Chinese tonight, his choice.
Have a good day everyone.

Good morning, Mick and to all who follow.

It sounds as if you have similar weather to here, today, mick.
There's a light frost on the roofs, and the sun is out for now. It will probably be a repeat of yesterday, and be a lovely bright morning and then cloud over.

Busy morning ahead putting curtains back up, furniture back into place and hanging pictures. I did what I could manage yesterday, but the hanging of the curtains on the landing is a two person job, so I've had to wait for DH to get home. It all sounds so echoey at the moment!

Hope you all have a good day.

Good Morning everyone from a bright and sunny south coast. A little less chilly too so far.

Pleased to report that my eye feels a little easier this morning so I am hoping that it is starting to get back to normal.

DH is out with his bike club this morning then going to the footie this afternoon so I have a quiet day in store.

Hope the day is a good one for us all and that you get your curtains safely hung Maple!

Morning Mick and All.

Just spilt some tea on the duvet cover, Hope it hasn’t soaked through ?

Bright morning in South Bucks.

Last day of peace before the troops, DGSs, arrive for their holiday with us.

Morning All , bit chilly and overcast . I left my Blue Badge in my sisters car yesterday ! She is off to Spain this evening ... Sigh

Good Morning all and to those who follow. Bright and dry here in Fife, I think it's to be a fine day. DH has a very sore back and had trouble sleeping, oh dear not sure what kind of day we are in for, will wait and see. Hope Saturday is good to everyone.

Morning Mick and everyone. It's another frosty morning with blue skies. The bluebells are appearing in the woods, so with more sunshine there will be a blue haze soon.

My DD and GS arrive today from Spain and I've moved Easter Sunday to tomorrow because they will be gone before next weekend. GS asked his M if he doesn't believe in the Easter bunny any longer does he still get chocolate. Yep! I've made an Easter box with an egg and art materials for tomorrow.

Oh dear Aggie. flowers Glad your eye is better GagaGran. flowers

Good Morning everyone, from Surrey. So lovely to see the clear blue sky and sunshine- it’s really cold still though. My 4 year old GD is being brought round for the day while her Mummy goes to work and her Daddy gets in a well earned game of golf. I will take GD into town to have lunch with her Mummy in Mummy’s lunch break.

Good morning everyone, another bright morning here, and for Kitty and Urmstongran who asked, I live in Bognor Regis, have done so for the past 17 years when we down=sized.
Lots of changes since then, but it was a good move. Today I have a grocery delivery, and I hope to get out to see some friends this afternoon, depends on the legs. Glad your eye is feeling a little better Gagagran, tlc does wonders sometimes. Take care and enjoy your days

Urmstongran Sat 13-Apr-19 07:34:17

Good morning everyone from Malaga where it’s sunny with a light breeze. I can hear the wood pigeons and have opened the door to peep out. I love the early morning scent of the pine trees.

My husband has just gone out for his walk. I’ve got my cuppa and slid back into bed for a lazy hour with the iPad. We are definite proof of the rule that opposites attract!

Hope we all have a good Saturday whether there are plans or none. x

Baggs Sat 13-Apr-19 07:35:47

Morning, folks! Bit more cloud here than we have had lately so no frost this morning. I've some twiggy branchy sallow clearing to do at the top of the garden today. Pics looking across the loch early yesterday.

Urmstongran Sat 13-Apr-19 07:37:32

X-ed posts Justme thanks for giving your location. It’s part of the enjoyment on this thread to know where we are all saying ‘good morning’ from!

Urmstongran Sat 13-Apr-19 07:39:31

Gorgeous view Baggs
Which loch - I can’t remember where you live!

Good Morning Mick, Good Moring all.
It is a beautiful sunny morning on S Welsh coast.
DH is watching the qualifying for the Chinese Grand Prix, hope Hamilton does well.

Glad your eye is better Gaga
A Happy Birthday to your DH Nina ? Enjoy your Chinese take away.
Aggie that is such a nuisance and inconvenience for you.
Enjoy your early Easter Sunday * Ginny* I can remember my DD asking me that about the Easter Bunny.

Have a lovely day everyone, enjoy the sunshine if you can.

1inamillion Sat 13-Apr-19 07:44:26

Wonderful views Baggs ?

Greyduster Sat 13-Apr-19 07:49:10

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. Back home from Wales yesterday afternoon and weather in South Yorkshire today is as Maple has given upthread. DS is coming for lunch and then football with DH, so I will have time to myself this afternoon. Beautiful photos, Baggs! Have a good day, folks.

Willow10 Sat 13-Apr-19 07:51:50

Good morning all. Bright and sunny with a light frost in E. Northants. Lovely pictures Baggs! Full nights sleep for the first time in a week, so I think the cold must be getting better. I went out for some fresh air yesterday, then came home quickly after having an embarrassing coughing fit in the street. Gasping for breath, nose and eyes streaming - not a pretty sight! So maybe I'll potter around indoors today where I can't frighten the horses. Have a good day everyone.

Good morning from a cold but bright NE coast.

Phase one of DD’s urgent garden makeover starts today with old fence being pulled down and posts put in ready for new one tomorrow . Thankfully it is a small garden but there is so much to do.

I’m thinking I might need another trip to GP as my chest seems to be getting worse instead of better. Still no test results after a week! Being outdoors all day might help.

Glad your eye is finally improving Gaga . We had the dreaded “cutting and sticking” this week too Ginny42 they had such fun making Easter cards etc. But oh the mess......

I can hear the wood pigeons here too Urmstongran they are scrabbling to get onto the bird table where DGD1 has stocked it with tasty treats. They are not very bright are they? I hope you continue to enjoy your break in Malaga envy

Gorgeous sun rise Baggs it look so perfectly peaceful .

Hope everyone has a good Saturday x

Good morning from a bright, sunny Aberdeenshire, but it is bloody cold. Am meeting ex colleagues for coffee and blether this morning so it's quick shower and quick walk with mutt...he's curled up beside me at the moment showing no desire to go out.
Have a good day everyone.

BlueSapphire Sat 13-Apr-19 08:02:07

Good morning everyone; another bright and sunny day in Northampton.

Post office this morning, then back to get the cats ready for their stay at the cattery. They are being collected at lunchtime. Then cut the back grass this afternoon.

Family have suggested a meal out tonight to give me a good send-off on my holiday. I go on Monday, a river cruise on the Danube, my first holiday since DH died last year.

Think I did something stupid yesterday, decided to shred my old will as I have made a new one - but I may have shredded DH's by mistake. Thankfully his estate is dealt with and it is no longer needed, and I have probate. But I may apply for a copy from the government website.

Hope everyone's day goes well.

Susan56 Sat 13-Apr-19 08:08:28

Good morning from Shropshire.Another bright start to the day here.We are off to the theatre this afternoon with DGD to see Alice in Wonderland.
Lovely pictures Baggs.Hope your chest improves gilly,do you have a walk in centre you could go to today?if not definitely back to the Drs on monday?
Have a good weekend everyone.

Auntieflo Sat 13-Apr-19 08:17:44

Morning Michael, Annie to come, and all, and it is sunny but cold here again.
We had a disturbed night, DH coughing for England, but, he said he slept better last night, not me though!
Gagagran, glad to hear your eye is getting better.
Gilly, you take it easy on the garden makeover.
What a beautiful place you live in Baggs, much nicer view than the houses opposite us.
BlueSapphire, have a wonderful holiday, and enjoy your weekend one and all.
