Good morning all and happy Monday. The sun has gone away and it is gloomy, though not cold, here today.

Apart from laundry, I need to do battle with my iPad. The settings seem to be messed up and my brain hasn’t been in gear sufficiently to do anything about it.

Good morning, Linda. Good luck with the iPad. I have a battle of my own with one ahead. Need to pry it out of daughter’s hands and make her come for a walk with me. [emoji849]

No I have a post box. And I check it periodically. Early on in our marriage we were renting and did not want the hassle of having to change our postal address all the time. So we got a box at the post office.

Ah, that explains it.
I'm sure I can remember our Royal Mail doing Sunday deliveries around Xmas time to clear the extra mail, but that stopped years ago....or have I imagined all that?
It's a miracle to get a first class delivery the next day nowadays!

"Gain" came out years ago as a laundry detergent. It may be a Proctor and Gamble product. The scent is SO refreshing. I LOVE the scent. It is only recently, within the last few years, that other products have started using that original Gain laundry detergent scent. I wish I could send it to you. It's lovely!

We have plenty of P&G products.
Maybe it has a different name in the UK.
I'll check.

Good morning and Happy Monday to you too, Linda.
Same here with weather and we've just had some rain but it didn't last long.
Good luck with the lPad.

I had steak and mashed potatoes with leftover boiled cabbage.

That sounds tasty.
I ended up with a cheese salad sandwich so I managed to have some veg!

I wanted to make a joke, but don’t want to reveal my terrible scents of humor [emoji6][emoji23]

Your jokes certainly aren't to be sniffed at Lena!

Famous last words..? [emoji33][emoji33]

I didn't make it back - 2 hours later when the call ended I was bit too tired!!
One of my sisters rang to tell me all about her hubby's surprise birthday weekend.

You have such a dry sense of humour, Lena,

Good morning and Happy Monday everyone.
I am waiting for a delivery of Lola's Readigrass to arrive so I haven't dared nip in the shower yet in case I miss it.
Just had a text to say it will be here between 10.20 and 11.20
I hope the driver will be patient and allow me get to the door because they don't hang about usually and I certainly can't chase after him!!
Maybe I'd better sit on the stairs to give me a head start.
Hope everyone has a good day.

Good luck sneaking up on the delivery guy... Don’t forget to say “Boo!” [emoji33][emoji23]

P.S. I used to do it all the time in Turkey. Otherwise they’d speed off and I’m no Usain Bolt...

Our US of A fan base must be sleeping in and enjoying the Holiday - meistro, strike up the band.

I miss the typical choices of sandwiches from when I lived in the UK. It was much easier to find tomato, basil and mozzarella sandwiches, even prepackaged. You just don't see Gloucestershire cheese and spring onion sandwiches over here. Gloucestershire is the yellow one, right? Or am I thinking Leicestershire? It's been so many years now... I still miss toasties on the menu, too.
