Good morning all.
The sun is out at the moment but the silly man on the radio speaks of a threat of thunder storms this afternoon.


Hope everyone is well and I will pop back later to catch up with the gossip

Morning all blue skies here, just me and the fur babies today. B has gone to visit T with youngest son.Student has gone on a trip to Stratford upon Avon with the school for the day. Going out early with the dogs,then just going to potter around. Caught up with all my ironing, blitzed the lounge yesterday. So I deserve a quiet day. 😁

Good morning everyone.

Slightly hazy sun here at the moment, and there seems to be a slight chance of thundery showers later. I hope not as it's Eva's monthly dog training walk, and she's terrified of thunder!

Libra - you've earned an easy peaceful day. Put your feet up and try and relax. x

Mimi - Gossip? Us? Noooooo.

Oma - I bet Storm doesn't like this warm weather, although it doesn't stop him chasing the neighbour's cats, in his mind! LOL Do hope DD's bathroom is finished.

Other than the doggy walk, and doing some food preparation for her I've got no plans. I might get a couple of loads of washing on the line. OH is still decorating atDS2's.

Good morning!
A sunny morning here also
I heard about thunderstorms this afternoon too. I hope they are wrong!

GD, 8 and GS, 2 are in bed between us, with the treat of drink, biscuit and Bing on TV. GD is humouring her brother by watching this!
A good uneventful night with them both. Their mum is coming for them later.
Tonight I am going to the theatre to see The Importance of Being Earnest.

I will catch up with the rest of the forum this afternoon.
Have a good Saturday!

[Daisy]

Gem - glad you've had a peaceful night. How funny, Bing must have a special appeal - my 7 1/2 year old GD will watch it to humour her little sister, but sadly for her, little sister is less interested than she used to be.

Have a good day.

[Clover]

Good morning.

Sun is shining and washing in machine.Chicken casserole in slow cooker so I’m off to a good start Just hope it lasts.

More gardening on the agenda and a few odd jobs that have been patiently waiting.

Have a lovely day whatever you’re doing.

[Oma]

Been to DD to see to cats the bathroom looks amazing ,
Plumbing the shower in today and fitting radiator one of these tall black ones very nice , sink cant go in till granite top goes over the units but everything else will be done
Dust everywhere though

Gem enjoy your night out ,sounds like the GC have had a good time at Grandma's
Libra relax and take some time for yourself while you have the chance , these days a few and far between .
Clover Casserole sounds good I do like chicken , we having a Chicken roast today with all the trimmings
Daisy he finds the shade although he's dashing around at the minute he keeps running off with B's slippers he's actually wrestling them off his feet when B sits down

Enjoy this lovely sunny start to the day, nothing planned, not even house work. I might give the sun room a clean and chase out the spiders. It is looking very smart, has a new felted roof, gone for a slightly paler shade of green this time.

Gemini, enjoy your theatre trip later.

Libra, I hope your husband and son find a slight improvement in your DD.

Oma, B will be needing some gaffer tape on his slippers, what a case that dog is.

[Qwerty]

Another fine day ladies although a thunderstorm is forecast , we are going out for a meal with DS and family , a local pizza restaurant has opened they have a massive wood burner oven and pizza 🍕 takes minutes to cook so looking forward to that don’t get to spend a lot of social time with DS and family unless it’s a celebration so will walk down and roll home 🍷🍽
Oh DD has just arrived will post this and get back to you 👍🏻

[Mimi]

Good afternoon all. Its getting very cloudy here, we have had a few big spots of rain and the cat has gone to hide so we are expecting a storm soon which won't please DS and DIL as they are halfway through staining the decking and its a slow hard job, all those little groves mustn't get over looked !
As the weather has changed all gardening planned for today has been put on hold. I wanted to repot the BIG bamboo plant.It will take two of us to do it as its far too big for one person. Its a good job I haven't planted it in the garden as it would have taken over the boarders .

Libra relax today, you deserve to

[Gemini]

No thunderstorm here yet. It is a bit breezy and slightly cooler than this morning, but still sunny.
OH is doing some weeding. The children and DD left around 1.30. We were in the garden with them most of the morning. GS loves to run around

Enjoy your meal Qwerty!
I hope B's slippers stay in one piece Oma

[Qwerty]

I’m back 😀 had our meal we have to eat early due to kids going to bed early so Home now and resting
Waiting for the thunderstorm so is J he loves thunder and lightening , still forecast but it’s lovely at the moment blue skies warm no breeze
Hope your relaxing Libra with a Bacardi in hand
Gem hope you enjoy the theatre have to say it’s not my cup of tea but wouldn’t do for us all to be the same , sounds like the kiddiwinks had a peaceful uneventful night thank goodness 😇😇

[Libra Gran]

My girl gets a 10 minute break from 4 walls at the park next to the hospital .Girls look so happy to be with Mum.

[Daisy]

Libra - that is such a heart-warming photo. I hope it's helped both your GDs and T to feel a bit better about everything.

The promised thunderstorm has arrived here with a vengeance. Continuous rumbling, lots of lightning, and a very unhappy doggy.

Gem - I do hope you all enjoyed the trip to the theatre. Was it a good production of TIOBE?

Mimi - if you've got a storm like ours, your DS and DIL's decking has probably had all the stain washed away!

Qwerty - you were sensible to go out early - hopefully avoiding the storm. I think it's working its way up country.

We had about 6 huge drops of rain but DS and DIL who live the other side of town had a downpour, they just managed to finish outside !
