You're welcome, Bellatrix! I found them useful myself.
I've been in the kitchen preparing food most of the day. It keeps me busy. But I am back home now and listening to the George Michael album "Older" on CD. He'd certainly been very talented.
School for me today. I now alternate between three year groups, I could do with splitting myself three ways My washing machine has developed a leak. It only when it's running so it sounds like a pipe is leaking. My plumber has staff off poorly, so won't be able to come until Wednesday afternoon. He's a near neighbour and doesn't charge an arm and leg, so I am happy to wait.

Yoga tonight for me and I am looking forward to it.
It's one of those drab damp days, although this morning I saw the biggest flock of geese fly over our house in three separate groups ! There must have been atleast 100!! Talk about noisy !!
You've all been busy me too. Been out with a friend most of the day, so nice catching up.
Hope you get your washing machine sorted soon Trisha, leaks are always concerning. I'm waiting for someone to fix my roof, the porch keeps getting flooded, but he's waiting til it stops raining, the irony!
There is a lot to be said for being part of a group, and the support and friendship that is gained from this.
I've drunk my cafetiere coffee and eaten my cornflakes. I also listened to the album "Fever" by Kylie. One of her best. Kylie Minogue is at the top of her game.
Anyhow I have also taken out the recycling and am browsing the Internet.
I always have Classic FM on in the background in the kitchen.
Doing housey chores, before I deliver half a banana cake to a friends parents. She off loaded a bunch of sad looking bananas on me at the weekend, so feel I need to return the favour. Only half a loaf as my lot smell baking and swarm like bees. I have to fight them off and guard the remainder..
I get Alexa to play background coffee shop music in the morning Make my fresh coffee and lean at the window looking out at the garden , we seem to like our morning routines.
Second time someones mentioned cake this morning and I haven't had banana cake in a long time.. nice SD

Coffee shop background music sounds a nice idea B, I never use Alexa, but that’s a good one as sometimes the local radio station gets a bit samey.
And talking of cake, I just watched an Instagram video on Irish fruit bannocks, spread with thick butter and jam, I’m going to have to make them soon 😍

Irish fruit bannocks ?? what are those ? I saw an IG video on mashed banana mixed with peanut butter, rolled oats, strawberries and blueberries. Flatened in a glass dish and baked for 20-30mins. Looked sort of healthy but I can't stand peanut butter.
Granny duties this morning and then I just lost the afternoon to nothing. If I'm not productive in the morning my day is a wash !

And again now all I want is cake
We have 4 Alexas, they are used a lot - originally got to help out OH when he was so bed bound at the beginning of his illness because you can have plug sockets and lights controlled by them too, it made life a bit easier for him. Now of course we have found so much more use for them e.g if all of a sudden I think of something I need to buy at the store, I ask Alexa to add it to my shopping list and it instantly goes on the list on my phone, ask it to spell something for me, remind me to do something, list is endless - one of those things thought I would never really find a use for but was very wrong.
I liked the sound of the banana and peanut butter oat rolled cookies SD... can you pass it on please and the Irish fruit bannocks sound good Jazzy.
