O/S Daily Monday 18th March This is an “over the garden fence” type thread where we chat about everything Old Style and maybe a little bit more. It’s a great, inspiring and motivating thread we start each day to discuss what Old Style things we’re going to do today or what we’ve achieved already. Everyone’s welcome, please do come in, put your feet up (although check the fence hasn’t just been painted first!) and join us for an Old Style natter. The more the merrier!

As this is the Old Style Board, it would be appreciated if posts could include some Old Style content. Please be aware that many people may have small screens, or slow internet connections, so please don’t post large pictures, or clip art – links are preferred. When you make a post, if you feel like giving it a title, that will help others that don’t have the time to read everything skim through the thread quickly but if not it's not a problem. Please do not start a new daily thread before you go to bed at night because this often leaves things confusing with two daily threads live at the same time. The idea is that a member would start each new daily thread after they get up in the morning.

Some people who chat here like to try to answer everyone. Don’t feel you have to though, a general “hi everyone, hope everyone’s well”

    Very, very hard frost here this morning.

    Goods nights sleep last night. I woke up once at 12.20am, Fell back off to sleep quick, And did not wake up again until 5.55am:j:j I went to bed Just after 10:00pm As well so i'm pleased with that.

    Wrist feels good too. It was hurting a bit again last night when I went too bed. Just feels tight to use this morning.

    Slow day here for me. Not a lot on today. Normal tidying Jobs. And that's about it.

    Morning all
    I'm off to work soon, very wet here, I hope it gets drier soon, we are on flood alert here, so we don't need any more rain.
    Time I made a move.
    Hugs to those in need.

    Good Morning All

    Very frosty here as well this morning though it does look like the sun is trying to show though.

    Off on my first shop today the money saving way I have meal planned for all week except Sun (i think everyone deserves a day off) and written a shopping list, I must say I am a bit skeptical as this list looks very small but if it works it just shows how much I have been wasting. If I stray I will just focus on my goal (being able to afford to be a stay at home mum).

    Have got WM on with bedding from spare room as one of my lovely feline friends decided it was a good place to sleep with muddy paws I might add - I will watch to see which one it was - course as my OH says I could just shut the door:p.

    Other than that no much else planned apart from pesky physio appointment for my back which is my nemesis, I have something wrong with the discs and they have a habit of prolapsing very easily had an operation on one and now they think another may have gone but hoping can be fixed with physio (fingers crossed).

    Hope everyone has a good day whatever they are up to - will pop back later to catch up

    J x

    PS Happy birthday Camelot - have a good day.
