Good Morning Tuesday, 13th January 2026

Good morning one and all, a pleasantly warm day with temperatures in the mid 20s and no clouds

When I was out on my walk this morning there was a big concrete pour going on at the local club making their new 2 storey car park (parking never worries me, it’s a 3 minute walk)

Little chance of rain today, if there is any it will just be nuisance rain of a mm or so (like yesterday), only enough to damp the surface.

This arvo I will catch a bus to see an eye specialist about getting my cataracts fixed, can’t drive because they will use those drops that dilate the iris.

Enjoy your day.

Take care…

Hi

Those concrete pumps are amazing and very powerful.

I avoid them, I was near one once when it exploded and injured people.

Today is a big day for me, I am learning to walk again, being bedbound for months is not good.

The aim is to take a few steps outside in the garden.

Have a great day all and enjoy yourselves.

Good morning!
Cloudy, dull, grey, damp, though not actually raining

Well, I hadn’t got rid of my bug or cold after all
Despite my best intentions I felt rotten & miserable yesterday, and spent most of the time under the duvet & dozing, only emerging to eat & drink tea.

This was frustrating as I was in that sort of limbo stage where you’re not so ill that you just want to take to your bed and forget everything; I was well enough to want to do things but not well enough to actually do them

I feel better today; I’ve already had a shower, and I hope to catch up with letters & emails - that will be quite enough excitement & exertion for one day

Good morning - It’s going to be raining all day, so at least there will be an excuse other than illness for doing — all.

I got some high energy/calory drinks from the GP yesterday. These are to have when I don’t feel like eating. I had one last night thinking I’d be leaping around by now but it doesn’t seem to have worked.

I’m going to see the neighbour next door later. She went to the Pharmacy to collect these drinks. There were 3 bags full (literally) and quite a weight. I never thought there would be so many. I also didn’t know she had a bad back and still went to get them. I’m going to give her one of the bottles of Baileys we got for Christmas as an apology and thanks.

Have a good day. :slight_smile:

Good morning all…

A wet and drizzly day down here in southern Hampshire, too wet for my daily walk. Not a great deal happening in this part of the world. Mrs G has an impromptu gym session a little later, which is thrown off a few plans for the day, to be salvaged by my coffee and muffins. Apart from all that, I may be doing a bit of online shopping, having decided to treat myself to something.

Have a great day all…
