Good Morning Saturday, 27th June 2026

Good morning all, another couple of millimetres of rain overnight, saves me watering my plants before I go perhaps?

Not much to tell you, went through my packing to make sure I had packed what I thought I had packed (does that make sense?) so now am basically I am waiting for Wednesday. In a senior moment I thought I was actually leaving on Tuesday but it does give me an extra day to prepare. Rang my brother last night to make sure that he is picking me up from the airport.

Just remembered that my membership of my local club expires at the end of this month so I went on line to renew it (it is raining after all), will pick up the card on Monday.

I suspect the rest of the day will be spent indoors.

Enjoy the weekend.

Take care…

Morning all! :cloud_with_lightning_and_rain:

What an enjoyable start to the day, watching the storm over morning coffee before first light. Most dramatic and seems to have cleared the air somewhat!

Armed forces day today! Commencing with a parade in town, then some stalls, hands on type set ups where us civvies are invited to handle weapons etc and just generally have a chat. I’ll be taking a camera.

Then on to my terrific haunted local, for more chatting

Some nice LOUD live music this afternoon!!!:guitar::musical_note::notes:

Enjoy your Saturday people! :sunglasses::beers::v:

Morning all to any who follow…

Another warm day here on the south coast. Not much I can add to that, apart from doing a little shopping later.

Stay safe all…

Hi

A really bad night,but really good and rapid response from the medical staff.

Decided to celebrate so washed, dressed and walked to the dining room.,first time I had done so since my arrival on Monday.

Two elderly ladiessat down in the waiting area next to the dining area.

Good Morning Ladies, I’m new here, staying for 11 weeks after a fire at my house.

The response was just two uninterested stares and then they went back to looking at the floor.

They would have made great extras in an Addams Family Film.

Ten minutes passed, total silence, so wondered back to my room to have breakfast there.

A lovely sunny day outside and much cooler, I shall enjoy watching the birds.

Enjoy your day while I an awaiting Uncle Fester to arrive.

Morning all – a lot cooler start to the day maximum temperature forecast to be 28c

My brother rang this morning, always lovely to hear from him – even if it was only 7.30am! We had a long discussion about his current and future cancer treatment but as it was starting to get a bit depressing changed the subject and were soon laughing and joking. He offered advice on how to deal with the hot weather (all of which I had to tell him I already knew!) and he was moaning about how cold it was in Australia!

While my neighbours are in Spain I am watering their garden – it is almost killing me! I come back home and collapse in a hot sweaty mess!

Today’s exciting plan is laundry and grocery shopping

Take care – have a great day

:face_with_hand_over_mouth: … what if he can’t make it and I come along instead?

Is it me or is it a tad less hot today? It’s nice and breezy here and seems altogether more refreshing.
Not got much planned.
