Hello all … hope the poorly ones are on the mend and that everyone has had a restful night … hmmm … they keep going on about the cricket on the radio … enough! 😭
OH is back to work today … I will make his favourite Kedgeree for supper but otherwise there’s nothing on the To Do List … although my workbench in the studio needs tidying …

Good morning everyone .I slept in again . I hope all who are not well are feeling better .I haven’t much to do today . It’s thick of fog here .I intended to do some tidying in the garden but it’s too nasty out there.have a safe day everyone.
Good Morning Bluebells, Debs, LB & Dove and all to follow, overcast and breezy today, Bluebells Hope your uncle is feeling improved soon best wishes, Debs Glad you had a nice time yesterday, safe journey to Liverpool with your youngest son enjoy your last day off, LB I have the black cat too 😉 National chocolate day sounds good to me, the purple wrapped ones with a hazelnut in particular 😋 Dove Hope OH gets on ok with his return to work today, workbenches are not meant to be overly tidy are they? 😊 Time for a cuppa, have a good day everyone.
Damp and gloomy here. Forecast says strong winds this afternoon.
I'm going to Daughter 2's for lunch. My two sons will be there too. Son 1 is staying, with his family, 3 daughters, for a few days with daughter as he lives some way away in Burgundy. Son 2 (5 littlies) is about an hour away, like me. There will be more opening of presents.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Sorry Debs, we had moved onto a new page before your post showed up so I've had to have a quick look back to seee what Chive was referring to. I, too, hope that you have a safe journey to Liverpool with your son. Enjoy your 'me time'.
Ruby, its pouring here and very misty. My phone reminded me of this day last year showing a picture of the Cres. covered in snow!
Busy, it sounds as though you are going to have another magical day today so enjoy! I hope little granddaughter is coping with the tonsilitis.

Chive ... when I was small (probably 8 or 9 onwards) I was allowed to use Pa's workbench and some of the safer tools, as long as everything was clean and tidy and tools put back in the right place when I'd finished ... that early training stood me in good stead ... and my OH had similar training from his lovely Dad who worked from home ... you can't be creative in a constantly messy space where you can't find what you need ... at least, we can't ...
Have a lovely day @Busy-Lizzie and everyone else who is still 'Christmassing' 🎄

Good Morning Rubee, Busy & Hazel, Sorry Rubee just missed you before, it’s certainly a day for being indoors I hope you have an easy day, Busy Have a lovely time with your family today, Hazel Your new hat will be perfect for the walk today, hope you’ve recovered from the ordeal yesterday,
Dove I can completely understand that, your pa’s early influence has stood you well, at school we say “what we learn with pleasure we remember forever”.
Morning everyone, bit late this morning. I also typed a post yesterday evening, but must have forgotten to press post, as it's not there 🤷♀️ @Busy-Lizzie So sorry to hear about your SIL do hope it's just mild and he doesn't get too poorly. Hope your OH stays well. Hope your little granddaughter gets better soon too. My eldest son used to get toncilitus a lot as a child, he had his out when he 5. @Songbird-1 Glad you and OH are ok and got safely home. @bluebellsinthewild hope your uncle is feeling a bit better this morning. @debs64 glad you had a lovely day with all your family. Have a restful day before going back to work tomorrow. @Chivetalking aww, yummy😋😋 I love those chocolates too 🤗 @Ladybird4 hope you enjoyed your family day too. Sorry phone rang while typing and mind has gone blank. Chatted with OH brother and SIL. I do hope everyone is well in the quiet corner. Have a good day everyone, take care.
Enjoy your walk @Songbird-1 hope the weather is better where you are. It's absolutely pouring down here. Hailstones hammering on the windows and front door and soooo windy too.
Evening everyone, Hazel I think I’m somewhere in the middle with my neatness vs disarray 😊 I’m glad you’ve been able to have a walk, shocking to see a fallen wall after the recent storms there was a lot of damage done. New shelving unit sounds good, have you got a date for your new sofas arrival? SGL Oh dear your weather sounds even more grim than ours was today, hope you’ve stayed in the warm catching up with some Christmas films. Those are one of my top choccies 😋👍
Been to see mum today, put the sucky thing round and sorted out a broken lampshade, in between tea & chat 😊 Have a nice evening everyone.
Good evening all. I've had a pottering day today. It has been really wet here, simialr to SGL's by the sound of things, so couldn't get into the garden for anything other than filling the bird feeders. Oh, and I have a confession to make - yesterday I ordered some plants online namely Tulipa saxatilis, Acis autumnalis and Billbergia nutans. Not expecting to get them too early next year but I had a special offer to use.
Hazel, Only Connect and Uni Chall are on again tonight - Christmas specials - so I am getting my brain in gear already. Hope that you had a lovely walk.
