Evening weekenders! Well it’s early evening in the IUK and I have driven 45 minutes to go to my favourite curry house in Bradford. Been coming here 25 years and the food is amazing. It was better than sitting home on my own on a Saturday night, chicken dhal and a large mango lassi ordered!

There is so much activity on the thread this weekend it’s fantastic but I can’t keep up haha! Keep strong everyone and be kind to yourselves and each other xx

I hope mini V is feeling better today VMan.

A belated Happy Birthday Tetra, i'm glad your co-workers acknowledged it in the way they did.

Happy hiking BigShoe.

I went for a walk myself today from Hyde Park to Westminster. The weather was beautiful but it was a bit crowded.

Bix - I hope you will get over that cold soon.

Manta - Your dinner sound delicious.

I am feeling guilty for not working on my project but reading the Headless Horseman instead.

I thought about carving a pumpkin too, but considering my recent history with sharp objects I am not so sure it's a good idea.

A four-year-old could carve a more sophisticated pumpkin than I could!

I know a woman who has about twenty special tools who does really intricate carving.

Likewise, I'm a couple of hours later at each end of the day than I should be.
Normally I love early rising!

Hello! I had a slight craving at around 3, but now I知 sitting here so relieved I didn稚 drink today. I can hear fireworks going off outside here already! I知 in the U.K. and bonfire night celebrations seem to get started sooner each year. I知 so happy and grateful to be cosy here at home - no pub, no wine. Looking forward to waking up sober and grateful tomorrow.

Hi everybody. I知 new to posting on the weekended thread but not new to SR. Currently at 129 days and hanging in there.

My my dog took himself on a walk this morning - he came back not too much later, glad he made his way back. Came down with a yucky cold, after being sneezed on many times by one of my 4 year old darlings at work. Made myself a nice cozy fire and it痴 a perfect day for Netflix.

I havent traveled much both within or outside my own country so I知 loving all the pics from all over the world. Very cool to see! And an eagle cam? How cool!

Happy birthday to Tesla. VMan hope your kiddo feels better soon. John glad you made it through the weekend.

Happy birthday Tetra--missed you

Mesa, love the pictures as always.

Things are going well for me and absolutely in for the weekend.
Played along the lakeshore with the puppies day and enjoyed the first cool of autumn.

A bald eagle landed in the tree behind the house--a good omen

Hearing is slowly returning, but now Mrs. Dragon is sick and suddenly, I'm in no hurry for full recovery. (Of my hearing that is)

Hi everyone


Happy birthday for the other day Tetra

Thanks Vman and Purps for the two wolf posts, love it ❤️

Manta I went to a curry house in Bradford years ago, it was the best curry I’ve ever had, before or since.

MB, be careful with those sharp objects! I hope you sleep well

Glad you’re still with us and still sober John

Just been to a yoga class and now relaxing for the rest of my Sunday. Have a lovely day everyone
