Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Afternoon, It's been a very dark day here, also rained nearly non stop. Just stopped in after walking the dog and faffed about in the house ever since.

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Good afternoon / evening to all of you in Scotland.

Not much different here 'down south', I had to get some milk so walked down to the village shop, then on the way back the rain started and it looks set for the evening now! Not that it will bother me much as it's an evening indoors for me anyway!

Roll on spring 2020, the only consolation is that each day now that passes is closer to that season, my favourite one!

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Good evening everybody. Just a shower here this afternoon in town. Had my hair done and then had a look round the shops. Had to call the gas engineer last night my heating went off. They came within an hour and everything was up and running again.

Baz, I count Winter as 4 months, November to End of February. After 21st December the shortest day I always feel a wee bit better. I greet January with a grin and think half way, getting there. By the time March arrives I'm great and looking forward to the clock change in 4 weeks.
I'm not a Winter person at all.

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Neither am I Roxy, in the past I could stand the cold more than now following a heart attack 11 years' ago. Winter really is so dismal, thinking more positively in the way I treat each passing day, gives me a way of coping with that season. I know people living in Scotland and you often do have far worse weather than 'down south', I can sympathise with how cold it is sometimes. It often seems that we all get the extremes of heat and cold which we never used to get, both those extremes affect me badly. It would be good to have the regular, even temperatures it seems we had when I was at school (decades ago now) but that no longer happens, unfortunately. I am just glad now it's winter that I have a reasonably new central heating system which allows me to keep warm and therefore healthy.

Evenin' All,been having a busy day since Son in Law came to take Me to Tesco for a big shop at Tesco this morn...collected Daughter from work then went on a shopping spree to splash some cash,then a Late tea to celebrate the start of a weeks holiday from work for Her...fell asleep for 2 hours on the sofa,now tucked up warm in bed watching the box....Time passes so quickly for Me these days that I'm sure it will be Summer again in no time

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Morning, Still very wet here, OH has fed the livestock and is taking the rest of the day off, he's fed up getting drenched all the time.
But he's going to get wet again as we're headed to the Health Spa for a turn in the Sauna and Steamroom, then a swim followed by a while in the jacuzzi. That should make his grumpy self relax and chill out a bit.
Enjoy your WE everyone..

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Good Morning Folks,a damp mild one here so staying put and doing very little today except a stint on exercise bike and 15min's with Rosemary Conley...have a good one all.xx

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Caught you again May! Just as I was peeking in to say "good morning" to all of you in Scotland on this horrible, wet morning 'down south' too!

Mind how you go with that stint on the exercise bike, beware of deep puddles!

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Good morning everybody. A bit warmer here this morning. Going to relax this afternoon and then get the bus to my niece's for an overnight stay.
