Good morning from Bristol.
Bueno viaje, pant, enjoy the sun and warmth.
I had a quiet day yesterday, finishing a leaf appliquéd cushion.
The tulips outside my flat are looking lovely, my neighbour is enjoying them…
Today, I’m serving coffee in church so made some lemon drizzle cupcakes, they’re a little over done, but delicious when I tested one 😄
I hope the slightly improved, warmer weather gives everyone an emotional lift.
Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
Mother of the Groom outfit woes...
I'm not a dress wearer at all so was really chuffed to find one that was inexpensive but makes me feel lovely. Problem is I see how other ladies spend up to £1000 on theirs and have started to second guess my choice. It's taking over my life browsing dresses that I hate but wondering if I should get something more traditional. Mine is this, in the navy which I will wear with nude and rose gold accessories. Does this look acceptable?
Good morning everyone from a rather cloudy and overcast Northampton, but a fine sunny day is forecast. May find another load of washing.
Enjoyed my dance classes yesterday, then walked round to my friend's after lunch to exchange birthday presents; both of us have birthdays next week. Had a long chat and a nice glass of wine 
, then decided to get the bus home.
Shopping this morning, pick up some Euros for my holiday, then may cut the back grass after lunch.
And tonight is the big match, the quarter final of the Rugby European Cup; a home match against a South African (don't ask!) side, so the ground will be busy and a brilliant atmosphere. It is on tv, so watch out for me behind the goalposts!
May we all have a good day.
Good. Morning all from N Bucks where it is very still. Yesterday was a beautiful day here, the temperature hit 20C and there was much activity in all the gardens around me!
It’s been a disturbed night, Rosie had me up twice but she had had a stressful day at the vets. Three teeth (all cracked) had had to be removed and she wasn’t discharged until after 6.
A warning to all who like me thought filled antlers or “Yak Snacks” were a good idea to help keep teeth plaque free.
As the vet said, if it’s hard enough to remove plaque it’s harder than the tooth. So it will be doggy toothpaste on the fingertip brush from now on.
A lunch party at a village pub outside Bedford for D’s FIL’s 80th today. I hope the temperature isn’t 20C again as I plan to wear this. The summer linens are still in the process of being unpacked and it’s way too soon for them. This “in between “ seasons weather is tricky!
I hope you have a wonderful and proud time at the ballet Ash
It made me feel a little bit sad that GS has decided to give up ballet and his performance in Birmingham Royal Ballet’s “Sleeping Beauty Dreams” in which he danced 4 roles was his last appearance. Cricket and rugby have taken its place in his affections. At 14 it’s not altogether surprising as he never wanted to train as a professional dancer - but sad.
Wishing you all a pleasant day.
Good morning from North Yorkshire. Another dull day.
The builder will be back any moment to continue with sanding and painting the door surround. It’s looking great so worth the effort and the cost. I was talking to a neighbour and noticed hers was rotten too and in a much worse state than mine had been.
DD2 is coming today for an overnight stay . We are off to a concert tonight by a local jazz and blues band. We know the leader.
DGS is poorly. He has an infection in his mouth and blood tests show he has very low iron. We are waiting for further results. Since he had Covid he gets occasional spells, usually around 48 hours when he is wiped out. I hope the doctors can get to the bottom of it.
My tulips have suffered in the gales and battering rain but are pretty.
Have a good day everyone.
