Unfortunately, didn’t sleep well and back/butt is very sore. All I can say is roll on Tuesday and the physio appointment
On a positive note, MrY is doing a good job of looking after me
Hope you’ve all had a good day
Aww, sorry you didn’t sleep well last night and still feeling sore 
Well done Mr Y for looking after our Yogi 
Good morning everyone 
Cloudy day here,
Yogi, I hope last night was better 
Those plastic £5 and£10 notes aren't as indestructible as thought:

I hope everyone has a good day
Good morning all
Forecast is light rain and breeze.
Thanks everyone, I did manage to get a couple of hours sleep
El, I hate those new notes and so do the staff in the local branch of my bank.
Have a good day, everyone
Did my M&S shopping early today and noticed that they have started using cream coloured plasic containers for some of their ready meals in place of black ones. That's because the cream coloured ones are recyclable whereas the black ones aren't. That change seems to have happened in the last week.
Good morning gorgeous people I hope you’re all well and warm. Yogi, huuuuuuge hugs for you I hope you don’t have a busy schedule this weekend and Tuesday comes round quickly
it’s very cold here and windy, but with lovely blue skies 
Good afternoon Buddies
Cold and very breezy here. Occasional sunshine 
El, those notes are horrible. I have never liked them.
Yogi, I’m glad you managed some sleep. I hope you feel a little easier as the day goes on
Sweet, I hope you and Miss Bramble have a lovely day
Leaving a ‘hello’ for squiggle
Back later
Client emailed me tihs morning panicking as he had received a generic notification from HMRC regarding employment allowance.
I've emailed him back to reassure him - HMRC are in the process of sending the notification to all employers - it's to prompt them to review as to whether or not they should still be claiming the allowance rather than anything more sinister.
I referred him to the HMRC guidance:
https://www.gov.uk/claim-employment-allowance
and, if necessary, look at the documents on the further guidance link at the end.

Well done El, it’s always good to have positive assurance from a person who knows his job
I have just been up the park and guess what I saw?
Swan and a cygnet 
The swan looks like a male, it’s huge
The cygnet still has it’s ‘baby’ feathers but can fly or it wouldn’t have managed to get here. I dunno if I feel happy or sad in view of what happened to our family.
Okay, I feel optimistic, shall we say 🙂

But Cheltenham's main goalkeeper taken to hospital with a leg injury during the match - seriousness of injury not yet known
I saw the score when it was 2-0 👍
Very sad news about your keeper though
The manager said after the game that he thought it was a broken leg but didn't yet know how serious. Cheltenham have another couple of goalkeepers but much less experienced than Scott Flinders.

Let’s hope he will soon be on the mend even though it may take a while
Evening all
Thank you everyone for the hugs and good wishes.
Summer, I am taking it easy - no lifting, pushing or pulling anything of any weight.
El, that’s good news about M&S changing from black plastic
Moonie, that’s really positive news about the swans. I’m going to keep everything crossed that a new swan family adopts your pond as their home 🤞🏻🙏🏻🤗
Poor goalkeeper, I hope the broken leg heals well.

Hi Yogi
Pleased to see you’re taking it easy
I’m not to sure if the swan and cygnet should be there so soon after our family’s passing Yogi.
The cygnet looks to young to have flown in. It’s strange to see just one adult and one cygnet too.
I am going to email the guy who is in charge of the renovation of the park to see if it’s anything to do with the parks department. Failing that I am at a loss to understand how they got there

Are you worried they might pick up the illness that your swan family had?

Good morning everyone it's going to be dry but cloudy today according to the forecast.
Let's hope that's a hopeful sign Moonie and very soon there will be a healthy swan family back in the park.
Enjoy your day everyone
Good morning everyone
Cloudy here today. A low risk of a bit of rain at times.
A walker has captured images of a rare weather phenomenon called Brocken spectre on New Year's Day:

Good morning everyone
A mixture of cloud and sunshine here. Ventured out into the garden not long ago. It’s cold and breezy but dry for now
Only a 5% chance of rain.
Fankoo Rosss and squiggle
That’s unusual El. It actually looks like the Christ the Redeemer statue in Brazil, if you stare at it

Oh Moonie is that’s lovely!!! I understand your apprehension but this is exciting too. I wonder if they’ve come to find a new home to nest in I pray that they stay safe and well

Oh wow that’s amazing! I haven’t heard of that before, how exciting 
Good morning everyone btw happy Sunday. I hope you all slept well and are in for a restful day. I’m going walking then home to do yoga, I’m taking part in a 30 day thing so I’m fully committed to doing each session. They’re only around half an hour so it’s not too time consuming
have a gorgeous day x

My sister was going past the park a few weeks ago in a taxi and she thought she spotted a swan. But I have been up a few times since then and not seen any until yesterday so they could just be visiting 🙂
Moonie, I had a similar thought when I saw that Brocken spectre image
It's referred to sometimes in literature. The best known is in Charles Dickens's Little Dorrit. From book 2 chapter 23:
‘Ah dear me the poor old room,’ said Flora, glancing round, ‘looks just as ever Mrs Clennam I am touched to see except for being smokier which was to be expected with time and which we must all expect and reconcile ourselves to being whether we like it or not as I am sure I have had to do myself if not exactly smokier dreadfully stouter which is the same or worse, to think of the days when papa used to bring me here the least of girls a perfect mass of chilblains to be stuck upon a chair with my feet on the rails and stare at Arthur—pray excuse me—Mr Clennam—the least of boys in the frightfullest of frills and jackets ere yet Mr F. appeared a misty shadow on the horizon paying attentions like the well-known spectre of some place in Germany beginning with a B is a moral lesson inculcating that all the paths in life are similar to the paths down in the North of England where they get the coals and make the iron and things gravelled with ashes!’
