Good afternoon, Elle!
I hope you all had a nice lunch.
Still fine weather here, but the forecast is not so promising.
I was out walking earlier around the neighbourhood.
I will watch the racing from Aintree on my television.
I have finished my puzzle earlier.

I liked this one!

Hello, Elle!
Sounds like you had a good day!
Racing was fine.
No, no bets for me today.
I'll wait for the National on Saturday.
I hope my son visits.
I have a wee job for him to do.
Will only take two minutes (if you know what you're doing and have the right tools!)
It has turned quite cloudy here.

Good morning, Rusty!
For once , it wasn't raining when I went out for my walk!
Mildish ...about 9C
It seems hard to believe, though, that the UK is forecast 23C next week!
I am quickly typing this before playing a game.......
I think the plan is for daughter and boys to leave after an early lunch.
What time is Miss O coming to collect you?
I hope you both have a great time at the Pine Cone!

Good evening, Rusty!

They will phone/ text on safe arrival.
It is quiet here now!
It is good that you and your granddaughter enjoyed your outing earlier.

Hello, Elle!
Yes, will be quiet now your family has gone home.
The Pine Cone was fairly busy, it usually is.
No children though, it is well off the beaten track.
You have to "go" there, no passing trade.
No crosswords?
Ah, but your family is far more important!
Was a good puzzle today, too.
