Good Morning and welcome to Saturday

Another cold and grey grey day - no sunshine and no wind - just a very heavy pewter coloured sky.  I wasn't going to go out today but I did and bought myself a beautiful soft and fluffy pink dressing gown and it will be pressed into service this evening.  I have not ever felt the cold, but I sure am now.

Shops were quiet when I got there at opening time but had busied up a bit by the time I left.  Lots of children looking a little bleary eyed at having to be out shopping so early.

Weekends bring lots of sporting events here in Australia and I guess all over the world - which is delightful for those who share the passion.  I hope your team wins, whatever code you choose.

Just spent a very pleasant time with my younger daughter who cycled down to see me (she rides her bike everywhere and loves it.)

This afternoon I am going to watch some television and ride the exercise bike - the combination of both is wonderful.

I remember very well the long and quiet weekends in hospital when everything seemed slow and quiet - a totally different environment to the week days.

Have fun on your weekend.

Love and hugs,
