Well the weather forecast predicts rain but its bright and sunny at the moment. I have a big strimming job this morning (and probably afternoon too!). Then I need to get a few things for a special girls' birthday..

After that more packing, cleaning and ironing..

Have a good day all

Good Morning all, well the weather is horrendous here once again

torrential rain and high winds, so no gardening today again.

Just house work I suppose although it needs doing badly.

for all those who are feeling poorly.

Beautiful sunshine here too but it has been a bit squally overnight - got woken up earlier with the rain hitting the window, 5 mins later it had stopped and was drying up.

Exciting morning ahead - not - we both have a dental appointment for a checkup so I'm going to have to ensure I take special care over teeth cleaning this morning.

This evening we're taking my cousin and his wife out for her birthday celebration, we've booked a table in a village pub. The pub is actually owned and run by the villagers and does very good food. (The added attraction is that they allow dogs into the bar so Kev generally gets to have a chat with a couple of canine friends.

)

The day has to be an improvement on yesterday when it was mainly housework and food shopping - and we even managed to get caught in a torrential downpour while in town. We quickly popped into a local pub for a coffee to sit the rain out but it was so full there were no seats

so I missed out on a latte.

I hope our poorlies are feeling an improvement this morning.

Morning All. Just managed to catch up with most of the threads - a lot's been happening while I've been busy! I know I won't have time to reply to all the individuals, so here's a quickie.

Huge HUGS for Saph

. I hope Daniel recovers really well

. Don't overdo it Kitty and get on the mend

. Nice to see you back, cwm.

Excellent run Dawn.

Have a great holiday Rich (the Millau viaduct is SPLENDID) and bienvenue en France,

Congrats on the new house Pens and try and ENJOY the packing and anticipation of the move, it will be great, especially the neighbours

. Belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Helen, Vera, Bunny and anyone else I've missed.

. Good vibes to whoever needs them ~~~~~~~
We had some very welcome rain here overnight and thankfully it's a little cooler (it was 35 on Tuesday) so I might even get some gardening done today, but lots of catching up to do at home too, and getting the gite ready for the summer season. OH is off working in the UK, so I have real peace and quiet here for a bit

My major project over the next few weeks is to write up my cookery book, which has been demanded by so many of our guests. More of that in the appropriate thread

Have a great day all.

Morning all. Getting undisturbed sleep now which is wonderful but still prone to violent coughing attacks during the day but they are getting fewer. I hope all on the sick list are improving too. Nice and sunny here at the moment but I think showers are forecast. No idea what I'll be doing today yet. Have a great day all!

Morning all, got caught in a torrential downpour on the way to school and now the sun is out so the washing machine is on.
Hattie was up at 4am this morning and decided to empty the chest of drawers in her bedroom

- she's now back to sleep again lucky thing!
I've got the beds to change (when she decides to get back up again!) and some general tidying up to do. James has a party after school, so an early tea is in order - toad in the hole I think

Have we heard from Saph is she okay?
Glad you're coughs getting better Laurel
Kitty - do you need a book? I've just finished my Mary Wesley one if you want me to post it to you

Good morning from me too. I've been here for quite awhile but have been getting caught up on the news.

How exciting to be writing a cook book, Belinda. I adore cookbooks and can spend whole afternoons reading
them. With your fabulous photography as an addition, it should be a work of art. I hope that you'll make it available
for us to buy. I for one, would love a copy when you've completed it.

Poor Kitty, taking it easy is very hard work, I know. Hopefully you'll be treated to a nice day so you can do it
outside in your beautiful garden.

Wow, just 4 weeks till retirement, Maggie. I know you've been looking forward to that day for a long time.
CA and Kev certainly seem to have enjoyed their's together. I guess someone else will be starting the early
morning thread once you have your hubby home for good.

I'm still struggling with a very sore back and swollen side. The doctor's appointment is just 5 days away now. I've
been really hoping it would just sort itself out (whatever it is) before then. I'm trying not to think about the
possibilities of what it might be.
