Saturday night - what is everyone doing?.

I’m sitting under my cosy heated throw, thinking I should go and eat something. I’m pleased I had some exercise today, walking in the sand dunes at the bottom of the road.
After a late supper, I’m going to watch The Children of Green Knowe. I found it on YouTube after a gransnetter here mentioned it.

Hope your cold doesn’t develop and you have a nice night.

I'm laid up due to a knee injury - am sat alone but happily obsessed with & playing various GN games - better than TV at the moment 😊.

Hope you feel better soon 🤞

We've just eaten a curry I made. We are going to watch a Channel 4 series "Truelove" according to a thread on GN it's good. About to find out.

Wish you better Optimistic

I am having some Christmas cake and coffee and am just about to watch a Burt Bacharach programme I recorded over Christmas and maybe the Ballet Rambert version of Peaky Blinders on iplayer. Enjoy your Saturday night.

Watching the Post Office programme.
I am always two scats behind with tv watching.

I am binge watching Karl Pilkington “An idiot abroad”…
Very few things I actually laugh out loud at, but this is one of those rarities..

Hollysteers waves furiously at you. Twas me who mentioned The Children of Green Knowe. I hope you enjoy it. I am watching Towering Inferno for the umpteenth time. I'm lying on the couch in my cosy dressing gown. I'm going to have a whisky and green ginger shortly then an early night to a warm bed and to read.

Thank you Grandmabatty, it looks right up my street!
I watched Goodnight Mr.Tom for the first time the other night and I’m in the mood for something similar 👍

I’ve managed to leave the bed after over a week trying to beat covid. Can’t believe I haven’t had the telly on in all that time. Turned on to Father Brown but any suggestions would be good. Thank you

I'm sitting with a cosy blanket over my knees, in my pj's already, having eaten a delicious meal cooked by dh, watching celebrity rubbish on BBC1.

I have had a nice pork steak dinner with my adult kids and are playing board games with them

Just surfing the net and reading GN. DH is watching Poirot and I am looking up every now and then but not really following the plot. I shall get into pj's in a minute, and the huge cuddly hoodie thing I got for Christmas, oldie I think it is called. We've just had a cup of tea and a piece of chocolate. I may do a bit of knitting or finish the book I am reading, (the road to Little Dribbling by Bill Bryson).

I’ve just eaten my practice run of Syrian chickpea stew and spicy potatoes for a World vegetarian food group I belong to. Delicious!
I’m watching Pointless Celebrities and will watch Nomadland later.
Enjoy your evening, everyone.

...oodie not oldie!

Just finished taking down the Christmas Tree, done a deep clean downstairs, had a meal now laying on the sofa, reading Gransnet, then I will watch casualty. Enjoy your evening everyone.

Just watched the masked singer, now to start my Portuguese course, been doing it for three years, can read fairly well, conversations with Portuguese people I struggle with, I originally started to learn to read so I knew I was buying butter and not margarine! got hooked and study every day, spend a lot of time in Portugal so get lots of practice 😀

Had a Chinese with my daughter and granddaughter, who drives back to uni tomorro, now home with the remainder of the Chinese for breakfast tomorrow, and waiting for Casualty

Last minute invitation from my DD to join her and family at their place for supper and watching Gosford Park. Had a lovely time. Perfect.

Just watched the Masked Singer as well. Daft but very funny. Piranha was excellent.

Have done some knitting and also remembered to do today's Wordle.

DH is watching Indiana Jones. No idea which film though.

I went from the sublime to the ridiculous….watched Pride and Prejudice then an episode of Reacher. Followed by listening to Beethoven’s 5th Symphony whilst reading Rory Stewart’s memoirs. Now I have just finished a spot of brain training and beginning to think of supper.

Macaroni cheese - stodgy but deeply satisfying! Masked Singer - mad idea but compulsive viewing! Now Casualty - it never changes. I thought Charlie was retiring but there he is, still to the fore!

...oodie not oldie!

Well, I'd just finished some rather nice biscuits from our local Polish shop and was about to google an Oldie as it sounded right up my street!

We went to our local Cine Centre to watch a production of the opera, Nabucco, transmitted live from the The Met in New York.

It was brilliant, Nabucco is a large scale biblical epic of an oper and The Met has the huge stage and can afford the huge orchestra, set and chorus it needs for a really successful production.
