Good morning everyone from sunny lockdown by the sea here in the dark and dangerous north. It’s like living in a series of Sykes smashed into Groundhog Days with a sprinkle of Janet and John narrated by the late Terry Wogan. Bread making yesterday. Also found out that Larry, no, Grayson’s Art Club is back for a third series in the spring (whenever that is nowadays). You can read about it here: https://www.itsnicethat.com/news/graysons-art-club-series-three-art-180122
More importantly, have you all placed a bet for the whacky races. Richly Smoothmac is bookies favourite but you will need to buy a vulture to pick through it all.
A short spray and a few birds and boats today. Must be a good Mitwoch, tea finished, now for the koffy.

Morning all/

A different day today. LFT, then (if negative) lunch at an up-market restaurant with a dear friend. She is having her last outing before self-isolation prior to major surgery. The operation is due at a specialist London hospital in two weeks' time. She is so happy that it is going ahead at last. I could join her in eating some celebratory carbs, but no booze.

My minor detail in comparison. FBG 8.1 mmo/lt at 0645.

Have a great day.

Hoping for the negative test.

Enjoy the meal/ meeting

Hi to all. Too dark here to see what kind of day it is weather wise but being winter it won't boil my bacon. There was a very blue sky yesterday which many would have billed and cooed over. Cute granddaughter early on, then gym, some form of LC food, football, bed and Swipey. Yadda, yadda, yadda. @True Blue hugs, prayers and best wishes for your friend. @gennepher thanks for sharing your art. @karen8967 your amazing run continues. @jjraak hugs, prayers and sincere wishes for rest and recovery - gently does it. @Krystyna23040 hugs and prayers for the pain from the sorrow and hurt of close family and friends. If you are out there @SlimLizzy hugs and prayers. Even if you can't stand on a corner in Wilmslow, Arizona, Take it Easy.

Same old.
Same old

It seems c'est la vie

2nd the good wishes for @SlimLizzy

And cheers for the cheer on.:)

& Wilmslow you say, clever ;)

Good morning everyone on an early bin day start here in the dark and dangerous north.
It’s skip day today - no rope needed. Skip being delivered this morning so just moved car off the drive - and put the bin out. Had to move some of the sockets in the garage ready for next week when we will be having doors and windows replaced. Mrs Miggins has now finished decorating the two upstairs bedrooms and a couple of books of carpet samples have appeared.
Hope that everyone has a better day today than they did yesterday. Time for a koffy.

Morning all. @gennepher and @dunelm thank you both for sharing your artistic gifts, I am very grateful. We miss Geeful and Muddy Cyclist but I pray they will return if or when ready. @gennepher I hope your busy, busy day is a rip roaring success. @dunelm thank you for the wish but I was happy with yesterday by bedtime - two goals in 90 seconds for Spurs did that. Gym session was very good as well. Generation Z seem to use weights so much more than Boomers and Millennials. To my old eyes this is especially true of those who self identify as female and are not ashamed to celebrate their femininity. One more of the Green Shoots of a Post Thatcherite/Reaganite age methinks after the collective breakdown 2008 caused and the resultant 2016 outbreak of utter madness. Will God give me two decades? - long job ridding the rotten old wood, clearing the land, draining it properly, and replanting. Have some Enya

5.5 this morning. A slightly damp, but still enjoyable, dog walk. Now relaxing with a coffee before starting on the admin. I keep thinking it is Friday today.

Great fbg and enjoy the relaxation. Nope, certainly not Friday. My body knows tomorrow is Super Salmon Salad and Avo day maybe even a "side" of Halloumi fries :woot: I'm just not cared, me. Thoughts and prayers with Jan and family, Heather and family and yourself. To save posts, also @jjraak, Lauren and Steph.
