I'm wrapped in a heated throw watching BBC cookery shows with a large hot chocolate and a pasta bake in the oven, with the cat snoozing on the sofa.

Bliss! Grin

Windy and warm here (Midlands). About to eat spag bol with the family and do final packing for DS2's D of E expedition tomorrow.

ZanyMobster · 13/10/2018 20:08

It's been 20 degrees where I am today but I am always cold so sat watching TV in my fluffy christmas jumper Grin I say watching TV, I am actually watching DS2 playing Fortnite on the TV, I have given him his 5 minute warning!!

Will watch a bit of Strictly and X-Factor after

Sitting on the sofa in my jammies eating toasted brioche. I'm only out of bed, I'm ill not lazy Wink.
DH is watching tv and I'm about to read my book.
Warm enough here but it's lashed all day.

Chocolatecoffeeaddict · 13/10/2018 20:14

Waiting for the X factor to start with a bottle of low calorie wine, kids in bed, fella cooking dinner.

Justonedayatatime11 · 13/10/2018 20:14

Strictly on tv, cat on my lap, clean pjs, M&S Chinese in the oven and DP has just opened a bottle of bubbly Smile. Doesn't get much better than that!

SneakyGremlins · 13/10/2018 20:17

I'm sensing a trip to M+S for a Chinese next weekend Grin

Cup of tea, strictly on the telly and doing a bit of lego with ds.

MegBusset · 13/10/2018 20:19

Really warm here too. Just finished watching a film with the kids, now they've gone upstairs to bed and DH has just gone out to pick up a curry. Then will watch some crap TV and drink wine :)

notsurewhatshappening · 13/10/2018 20:20

Lying on my bed with my cat who is currently favourite member of my family. She doesn't whinge all day at me or scream when she doesn't get her way. DCS have exhausted me today so I might just fall asleep soon.

MiddlingMum · 13/10/2018 20:26

Just about to go for a run. I love running in the dark, and even more so when it's windy, it feels so elemental (sorry to sound so pretentious).

SneakyGremlins · 13/10/2018 20:27

Mine screams when he doesn't get his way Grin

Also in East Anglia and it’s been hot and sunny all day. Still really warm now, dh has come in from the garden and said it’s nice and cool in here compared to out there. Just made fajitas and nachos and rice and veg and now vegging our to Strictly.

Holymolymackerel · 13/10/2018 20:29

Watching strictly, popping an Indian meal for 2 in oven. Kids having a sleepover at granny's so a lie in in the morning.

Sarahlou63 · 13/10/2018 20:30

Waiting for hurricane Leslie to hit! Very warm here in Portugal but we have a violet weather warning (didn't know there was more than red) for 180kmh winds and torrential rain overnight. Eeek. Everything secured, sandbags and torches ready and the horses are in the valley so fingers crossed all will be well.

MrsChollySawcutt · 13/10/2018 20:32

Its bit cold, quite a balmy evening for October. Just out of the cinema having seen 'A Star is Born' and picking up DS11 from a friends birthday party.

SneakyGremlins · 13/10/2018 20:32

Blimey, Sarah, I'm sending good wishes to you and your family!

I’ve been busy all day, work this morning then straight out to a baby shower. My youngest is now in bed, dh is going out so I plan on ordering a takeaway just for me and sitting on the sofa in my pjs and watching trashy tv or a girly film then going to bed early. Rock and roll.

SpamChaudFroid · 13/10/2018 20:35

It's so warm and windy here! I walked back from Waitrose imagining myself in a post apocalyptic blustery desert. Now pondering whether we really could be artificial intelligences in a world made real by some higher beings. Confused

ineedwine99 · 13/10/2018 20:35

Very windy here, toddler went to bed at 7, got my red wine and watching tv 

ICouldBeSomebodyYouKnow · 13/10/2018 20:37

Painting the kitchen.
Decluttered earlier as prep. Have thrown loads out and are doing a charity shop drop tomorrow.. Cupboards are definitely tidier but doesn't seem all that much better considering the time and effort it took!

Hoping for a glass of wine or gin later. Wine

OnceUponATimeInAmerica · 13/10/2018 20:38

It’s so warm here that DH just asked if he could turn the heating off. Had to tell him it isn’t on!

CormoranStrike · 13/10/2018 20:41

Drinking wine, watching strictly, listening to audible and sleeping
