Josy1953 Posted August 20 #61302 Share Posted August 20 Good morning, it is cloudy again this morning and only 15° but predicted to get up to 18° later. DH is going to finish the decorating this morning so that we can go to look for new carpet which will not be a very pale colour. The current carpet is silver grey and shows every tiny mark , it was a nightmare hovering up dog hair several times a day when we had the dog to stay while the youngsters were on holiday. Have a good day everyone. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Eglesbrech Posted August 20 #61303 Share Posted August 20 Well the rain is teeming down here and it’s dull outside. I’ll cut out any verbiage for the rest of the next 10 days by saying that it will continue to teem with rain outside with the addition of some thunder and lightening at times. This has been a truly dreadful summer with the only decent weather actually being in the spring. I’ve been stuck indoors so the preserves cupboard is filling up early in the year. There is a large batch of saurkraut bubbling away in jars, given the rain the cabbage is a bit on the wet side! Even the raspberries have been soggy, we have been having raspberry milk shakes to use them up, I need some sunshine and thankfully we are off to Italy in a few weeks. The problem is over the worst of the winter it’s very hard to find anything that leaves from Scotland other than the Canary’s, Madeira etc which we have done multiple times. I don’t like long haul flights and cruise from Southampton are very thin on the ground this year. Hopefully the weather is much better where you are. Enjoy the outdoors if you are able to. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplesea Posted August 20 #61304 Share Posted August 20 Had heavy rain first thing, but has cleared away now and is supposed to be fine for the rest of the day. A day of sewing for me, as my daughter's dress needs mending before her cruise at the end of the month, but no other plans. Hope everyone has an enjoyable day. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peanut006 Posted August 20 #61309 Share Posted August 20 Good afternoon everyone, hope you are all ok today. It’s a breezy day here today but plenty blue sky and sunshine. It’s my birthday today, I have just met the girls for coffee this morning which was lovely and my mum is coming for tea later. I went to the Hot Ice Show in Blackpool last night, it was fabulous, highly recommended. I should go to the gym this afternoon but not sure I am in the mood today Take care everyone Michelle 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angel57 Posted August 20 #61312 Share Posted August 20 @Peanut006 Happy Birthday Michelle. I think you should give yourself the day off from the gym today. Remember there are no calories on your birthday, so it would be pointless…..🤣🤣 Gill x 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How I agree with you about the weather - it has been truly dreadful up here this year. I was looking forward to my cruise on Azura next month but unfortunately I’ve had to cancel due to some current medical problems. I shall just have to hope that things will get sorted out and I’ll be able to get away in the winter. 🤞 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being stuck in constant wet and cold is no fun. I haven’t stopped taking my vitamin d supplements all year. It’s becoming thouroughly depressing. I noticed last night that it was getting dark long before 10pm as well so winter is coming and summer never came! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved them as a child, hated the ones with zeros in the middle, now I’m proud of my age and thankful for every year of health and enjoyment. Have a lovely evening with mum. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
