Good morning Sunday

[Ally]

Good morning.

Forecast lushy Mclush again.

Now, I don't care how warm it gets today. I am not going out.

I don't care there's a street party 20 minutes walk from here. I am not going out.

I can't recall the last time I had a full day at home. I am not going out.

Place your bets please.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning Ally and everyone

Wet, thunderstormy but surprisingly mild, this morning. The most fantastic thunderstorm though, keeps rolling away and back again

Not going out Ally? Think we need a ball and chain to keep you in

A friend is coming round in about an hour to collect one of the fridge/freezers and that is the last of the freebies, given away.

Not sure what we'll be doing today, was hoping it would be nice and we could have given ourselves a day off from looking at empty walls

Whatever you're doing, hope you have a good day xx

Morning all

We had a really good drive yesterday, made a lovely change. We even had time for a proper meal (a first) before visiting my aunt and uncle, also meant we were able to relax and watch Strictly. Great show and fabulous result

Just had brekkie and will be off to visit mother at 10.30. Chris her key worker is on duty today which means there shouldn't be a delay getting mother up and ready to see us. Fingers tightly crossed there aren't any problems, it would be lovely for her to be able to enjoy seeing everyone. Hoping Z has as easy a trip on the M25 as we did.

Hope you all have a good day

Morning all

The sun is actually out here

Ally, Not Going Out if one of my favourite comedies, I've got the tune in my head now

Jen, I'm glad your weekend is going well xx

Ton, that's great, won't be long now!

We're off shopping later, as per, on a Sunday - hoping Morrison's won't be too crowded but not holding my breath LOL Becky is working, but as she was out very late last night, and tiddly when she got in, I think she'll find it a loooong day I'll be cooking a roast later as Harry says he's looking forward to one of my Sunday roasts

Have a good day everyone xx

Morning all, lovely sunny day here although it looks very windy. I've done all the wrapping (there wasn't much!) and am relaxing for a while before hitting the shower. We are going to a dance this afternoon, Mr Osc enjoyed himself on Wednesday night and a man with no partner is always popular We will leave a bit early as there is a "drinks and nibbles" being hosted by a family on our street in the early evening and all are invited - apparently they have wanted to do this for a few years. Nice idea but rather them than me! It will be interesting to see who turns up. Have a good day everyone

[Kaz]

Still sunny here Di Hope you get your tree done

Osc that's a lovely idea of your neighbours, very much in the spirit of the season Hope you enjoy that, and the dance xx

Well Morrison's was busy but not manic, the café was even quiet enough for us to have a swift cuppa afterwards without a massive queue I had £20 worth of money off vouchers so for the first in as long as I can remember my Christmas food shop came in at under the hundred pounds!! Catching up with stuff on the iplayer now, then later I'm making a roast, and also making some filo pastry apple and mincemeat mini-parcels for Weightwatchers tomorrow

[Diflower]

Hmmph. We've had mostly dark grey with occasional bright patches to tease us.
I've just been into town for an(other) adaptor for the tree and drove in an absolute cloudburst

It's such a shame, so many summer events were wrecked by the weather and today it's a lovely Christmas one
There's things on all day by the quay, then at 3 a carol service, followed at 4 by Father Christmas arriving by boat, in a flotilla, all decorated and lit up.
Right now the sun's kind of out, I do hope it stays clear for them.

Most years there has been a get-together at one neighbour or another - last year you may remember we had a party
No-one's volunteered so far this year, but I've instructed Bb to drop hints on his dog walks, and tell them I'm happy to do some food

We are indeed doing the tree, and the rest - just having a cuppa, with a mince pie to look forward to once it's done

[Kaz]

Oh that's a shame, about the spoiled events Hope the hints work

My mini parcels are done and look delish
