Good Morning Sunday 28 November

Good Morning everybody! :wave:

It has just started snowing here and a light dusting is covering the ground, trees and rooftops. Time to get the wellies on I think, for when it turns to muddy slush.

No plans for today as yet…waiting for the shops to open so I can get some shopping in and settle down for the rest of Sunday…

Have a nice day everyone :smiley:

Morning Pix, 23 days to go.

Good afternoon all. Not so wet today but overcast and cold. I still can’t believe I am wearing a hoodie at the end of Spring, it is supposed to warm up a bit during the week before the temperature drops to below 20’ next Saturday.

Fiddling about at home has been the order of the day, it is Sunday after all.

Have a good one.

I have no plans mine at least for today my long term ones have taken a downward plunge following the PMs speech yesterday .

Good Morning everyone,

Light snow everywhere - it began late last night - and has frozen. Definitely crisp and even this morning, so only a short early walk.

Been busy in the kitchen - cauldron of Butternut and Carrot soup brewing nicely, and a Spiced Beef Stew doing it’s own thing on the Slow burner. Cats are snoring gently by the sitting room fire - I am off to play in the craft room!

Take care - stay safe.

Morning peeps, very cold here but a bright day ahead methinks… :sunglasses:

Car problems this morning, it didn’t start and all manner of lights are flashing on the dashboard, so I’ve given Green Flag a call and I’m awaiting the mechanic, just hope it isn’t anything too serious. Visitors for lunch today so we’re having a full roast with apple pie dessert, so not all bad news…

Have a pleasant day everyone :blush:

Morning everyone, well no snow here - it’s a rare visitor to South Devon apart from on higher ground, such as the moors. I do think all of you on here saying you’ve got snow should post a picture of the views for us snow-deprived southerners :snowman_with_snow: :snowflake: :snowman: :wink:

No plans today, apart from mending a colourful cardi for my daughter - silly girl just cut off a pulled thread, and guess what? She’s now got a hole :roll_eyes:

Have a great day everyone :blush:

Morning all !

Its sunny here in Sudbury, but I have to go back in the loft to finish off insulating it… the worst job in the world.

My lad comes back from Uni today so I need to sort his room out as well, and then finish off painting the porch and getting the hall, living room and stairs ready for the decorators who are in tomorrow.

Urgh … where does the time go ?

Morning all.

Barry, hope the car can be fixed easily.

I must get that dog out shortly, but neither of us are in a rush.

Got the plumber, recommended by Susie, expected at 11, in the hope he can change the kitchen tap. Looking in the cupboard underneath I reckon he will have a struggle. Too much in the way.

Brrrrrrr…. Good morning all on this very chilly Sunday. No sleet or snow yesterday, a sunny day today and just 1°C.

No particular plans for the day except keeping warm.

Enjoy your day folks :slightly_smiling_face:

Good morning everyone :slightly_smiling_face: lovely to see the sun after a bitterly cold night. This house is great in the summer but like an ice box in the winter.

I have washed the sheets, not sure if they will dry . I have some shopping to do online if I can get any broadband.

Chilli for lunch that should warm me up .
Enjoy your day…

Good morning all not sure why I thought it was afternoon maybe being up so early. Cold but dry bedding on the line and a bit of sun and a fair breeze so hopeful. The dog is chasing a carrot around the house and garden throwing and catching bits are flying everywhere having a great time.

Browsing the web; popping in and out of the garden, watching what I recorded Freddie Mercury The Final Act; sorting through some metal tins and condensing receipts to what’s still in the house i.e. insulation, cavity wall, windows etc.

Basically having a generally nice Sunday here’s hoping yours is as nice.

Frosty very early, its now sunny, reasonable day in prospect it seems, enjoy, oh yet again dry for the Alf walk.

Snowing heavily here now in North Notts, and has been for the last couple of hours. Our visitors from Leicester have left early then to make sure they get home before it causes too many traffic problems, particularly on the M1… good luck kids…

Hi @Jazzi yes, turns out it was a dead battery, he got it started with a booster pack and I’ve now arranged to have a new one fitted tomorrow at Halfords. Thankful it was nothing more serious, and as the battery was ten years old I guess it was due for a new one anyway… :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Thank goodness for that. Yes, that makes sense, going by the age of it. At least a new one before the heavy winter sets in should see you right, now.

Thanks @Jazzi , how did you get on with the tap?

Fine, thanks. He WAS here for 1.5 hours, chatting a lot, and with two large coffees. But he fitted isolation valves to the two pipes and still charged the initial quote of £40. I expected more, after the extra bits.

Phoned Susie after he left and exclaimed ‘don’t he chat!!’ The guy even admitted it himself.

I now want to buy a spray attachment, as this head has a screw thread, which my old tap didn’t.
