A pleasant enough morning. It is not raining, and it is not windy. That will arrive tomorrow! Yes, heavy rain and high winds! Ooooh!
I had a good day on Friday. A number of very welcome surpises!
I went to Kindred Spirits at tea time, just for "the one" then home, a bit of relaxing time then out for a monthly meeting of some good friends and a curry at Aroma. We did some good and then I went to The Hope where there was an excellent d=band on, then finally to The Farmers adn home by 10.30. Lots and lots of people out enjoying Ulverston. Good to see.
Off to the Bewby Bridge Hotel this afternoon for Cocktails@5 annual dinner. Party Night and I'm stopping over too, so I will enjoy a slap up Full English at the hotel in the morning.
Stay Safe! Stay Alert! Stay Calm! BE NICE TO ONE ANOTHER AND SHOW COMPASSION! And little love?

There ahs been some overnight rain. It's stopped now but it does look rather bleak and some more rain will come along!. That said, it remains quite mild. The temperatures are about 4 degrees above the normal for this time of year. Yet more rain and windy weather is forecast for the remainder of the week and over the weekend. Such joy!
I am off to enjoy the Nativity Play this afternoon at the church, performed by teh children of St Mary's School. It will include, of course, Fred and Henry, my great-grandsons! I am sure it will be lovely.
It was the Annual Dinner of the Kings Head Crown Green Bowling Club last evening, held at the Ulverston Golf Club. It was a very pleasant evening when we all enjoyed a good meal and and the cup Presentations.

It's pouring down! Very windy too. Not pleasant at all!
More heavy rain and nhigh winds are expected to batter the area. It's called Storm Bren. So stay at home, heating on, a nice shepherds pie in the oven and watch a nice movie on the box? Pretty attractive alternative?
I have seen that the under 16's in Australia are to be banned from certain soicla media broadcasts. What do you think about that?
Mt granson is off to the USA today. Firstly to New York then via car up to Buffalo . He certainly likes his adventures. Sitting on a beach in Benidorm is not his style.
Some of my other friends have just returned from a super holiday in Las Vegas! I have not been there but I did go to San Francisco once )( Alcatraz, cable cars, Macey's, Fisherman's Wharf etc etc ) on British Airways and I flew there, and back, FIRST CLASS! That's the way to travel!
