Countess Quilterdown @quilterdown.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning. Had a lot of rain last night! Out again today - garden waste to tip, Montacute House, pub lunch hopefully. Rest of week nice & quiet - weeding, flower bed prep, seed sowing. Have a good day all❤️❤️ 1110
Cathy @cathy12341234.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning 🌞 Caroline and morning orcs Happy bank holiday everyone and I have woke up with a big bruise on my foot because of a bottle of water I was getting out of bed I didn't realise the bottle was on the edge of the bed when I got up it landed on my foot but I am still going to take my dog out 9130
David Porter 🇪🇺🔸🌈 🐈 @porterd.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Good morning Caroline and fellow orcs. Bangcology is the study of bangs. #OriginalRollCall Monday 31st August 2100
Tony Jones @exrevtony.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning all! Lazy day here, apart from a bit of food shopping. Not a bank holiday - quite the opposite, as most people are back at work/school. 040
JayEsstoo @js2.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning ORCs, no rain here despite being bank hol, tho not here in Scotland. Much brighter view of Dundee this morning. But autumnal & chilly. Fell asleep & slept pretty well, no problems during the night despite having company in this little car park. Off to the Chariots of Fire beach today. 5150
Caro 🇬🇧 in France🇫🇷 🇪🇺🌻 @carolinebignell.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning all! No holiday here although most days a holiday for us. Need to go to boulangerie as out of bread. Have an enjoyable week ahead ORCS. 190
MDW @clevercomma.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning Siamese and Bank holiday ORCs. Apologies for late appearance. Lorries woke me at 0400 and 0600 so I turned over and it was 0900. Tea made, starved cat fed. Drizzling here and windy all night. Easy day today I think. Have a great BH! 3140
Rachel @rachel-longlegs.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning!! Not been lying in bed but tidying the kitchen. More rain forecast today but we're trying to design our library bookcase and find some bits for the house, which will keep us occupied! Back to work tomorrow 😪. Have a good bank holiday all!!! 040
odbof85 @odbof85.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Another thing about public holidays in France is that *everybody* gets the holiday apart from food shop staff, florists etc, just till 12.00. None of this taking stuff to the tip, because the tip is shut 040
odbof85 @odbof85.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Good morning Caroline and ORCs Not a holiday here - we had one for the Assumption, in a country that declares itself officially secular. As you do. Still showery here, so not sure of plans. Cats are fed, I have tea. Routine stuff like collecting prescription, and ordering firewood. HAGD everyone 😊 3150
Nicola @sessiagh.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning all! Snorting and snoring husband forced me to spare room last night, then it took ages to get back to sleep! Feeling aggrieved as needed a good night… fly to Greece at midnight tonight!! 360
🇨🇵 Clare Price-Jones 🇪🇺 @clucksky.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Bonjour les ORCs. Stress levels coming down now & day of peace I hope. When you have to phone the neighbours daughter in Australia, because he's behaving like the absolute self centered twatt? And refusing to go to hospital. Asking M-Jeanne to drive him to the docs at 8 30? Ye dogs. I nearly burst! 3150
RivermanRob @rivermanrob.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Good morning Caroline and ORCs. Busy day with daughters and their families yesterday. Resting today. No other plans. That may change. HAGDA 1100
Louise @uncannyval3.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning Caroline and ORCs. No plans for the BH, just pottering about at home. Have a good one, all. :) 1100
Arm-Wap #VoteLeaveLies #Rejoin #FBPE #NAFO @arm-wap.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning Caroline and fellow ORCs! Lie-in until bladder forces me to bathroom. OH still asleep, so I try not to wake her. Driving back North late morning. We have stuff to do this last day of hols. Catching early train to MAN apt and then work for 6-7 wks. Hope you all enjoy your (bank holi-)day! 2150
Lomelindi12 @lomelindi12.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning Caroline & fellow orcs Hairdresser coming soon to chop my mop back into submission (he became a mate after years of salon cuts & agreed to do a home cut when I said the salon’s prices were far too high). The rains & winds seem to have stopped Have a decent day 2220
Lady Weathergirl @ladyweathergirl.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Adding another post as think orcs will appreciate. Hadn’t heard The Marsh Family for awhile but beautiful singing, as always. Heard this just after seeing Google already has ‘Lake America’ in brackets on its maps!! bsky.app/profile/mars...The Marsh Family@marshfamilysongs.bsky.socialHere's a twist on Canadian legend Alanis Morissette's song "Ironic" (who was amazing when one of us saw her live last month). It's an acoustic version about Trump's #USCanada #tariffs, #tradewar and his attempted renaming of #LakeOntario. It's called "Moronic" 🎶 - lyrics: youtu.be/Y6OGKFQBG7syoutu.be"Moronic" - Marsh Family parody of Alanis Morissette's "Ironic" about Trump's Trade War with CanadaYouTube video by Marsh Family 1100
Lady Weathergirl @ladyweathergirl.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning SC, orcs! Busy day doing overdue jobs. Finally sorted problem on club account spreadsheet, hurrah! 😇😅 Picked a load of blackberries, promised OH apple & blackberry crumble today. No other plans, hoping fewer showers means time in the garden. Have a great BH Monday folks. 1120
Jules Charrington (#MKHG) @juleschao.bsky.social · 31/08/2026I am having a lie in!! No croissants though… I didn’t plan properly 😂 Have a great bank holiday 🥰 3160
Hilary @hilarym.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning Caroline, morning all - thanks for the coffee/croissant Looks like being a good BH despite the poor forecasts earlier.I suppose public holidays are still relevant but wonder if people would prefer to chose their days off? A day to stay off the roads so a long walk from home will be good HAND 4150
Hettie Wagtail @hettiewagtail.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Good morning I hope you have a pleasant day.😊 2120
Dymvue @dymvue.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Bank Holiday means Monday carer has day off so another day as sole carer for me! But weather better so may be able to go to seaside for an hour or so. Tomorrow- September! 2190
SiameseCaroline @siamesecaroline.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning all! A good day was had yesterday cooking down tomatoes for sauce, although it takes ages to skin them all. A very busy day all round, so I’m doing as little as possible today! 8250
catsinfrance @catsinfrance.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Good morning. Bonjour. Maidin mhaith. Guten Morgen. Bom dia. I hope those in England Wales and Northern Ireland have a good bank holiday. I don't think it is one in Scotland? It's not one here in France. I hope we can all have a good day. 1120
Sharon Moncur @sharonmoncur.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Good morning Caroline, good morning ORCs Hope everyone who needs a public holiday enjoys today. It’s not going to make any difference to us at all! We had planned to go to a village flower show but have discovered it’s part of a massive village fete which doesn’t appeal. Have a good day 1110
Suffolk Sue @ruralsuffolk.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning. Bank Holiday has dawned wet underfoot but sun is now out so 🤞it dries out for the events taking place. I'm helping on a stall at the Fun Day down in Harleston just over the border in Norfolk so anyone nearby pop along and see me. Look out for our Zumba tops. Dancing may be required 😅 HAGD 2100
judenyorks.bsky.social @judenyorks.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning all. Goodness, we’ve had some rain, lightning and thunder. Quite spectacular. Hoping for a fine day today..going to Fulford show. Enjoy your Bank Holiday. 1160
Steve Norledge @stevenorledge.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Good morning SC and all. Well this is odd…. Bluesky wouldn’t load for me since Sunday morning. V strange. I’m out to feed the birds and have no plans for the rest of the day. Blissful. HAGD everyone. 2110
sjcp @sjcp1962.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning 😊 No Bank Holiday here so work for me; I’m not sure if the Post Office will be open or closed but will take my parcels down and check (eBay as well as Vinted now as couldn’t sell perfume on Vinted). Heard a pair of tawny owls last night, which was lovely ☺️ 2200
willofibres.bsky.social @willofibres.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning have papers to read for a tribunal case I'm on the panel to hear tomorrow. Other than that some shopping and stitching the border on my friend's birthday quilt. HAGD or Bank Holiday 3110
Eleanor @eleanoralbaugh.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Moin Caroline and ORCs. Jobs being ticked off the list steadily so today is houseplant day for those that survived. Need bigger pot covers so OH will do a charity shop dash and I have yarn to make covers for those that don’t suit our colours. Squirrels still raiding sunflower heads. HAGD 2100
NikkSinc 📚 @nikksinc.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning Caroline and all ORCs. Another busy day at son’s flat. He says it doesn’t feel homely – I’m encouraging him to consider a couple of plants, a throw, towels in a warm colour etc. Friend who was convinced she’s having a 2nd boy has just discovered it’s a girl – at last, I can knit a dress! 160
Linda Lovely @lindalivesinfrance.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Morning all. Slept well and icky bug on mend but we will still be on light activities as OH is still downing paracetamol regularly. Yesterday was lovely. We drove up to the ski resort and wandered around a bit. Damp and cloudy today. 2190
