Sing? Of Course I Can Well Try!

Welcome to my Monday...
 I enjoyed a cup of tea in bed...🛏
 Gave hubby a big 💋 before he went off to work.
I got up to write a short shopping list...
Coffee helped me with it....;)
I sorted out with my union, 
about my redundancy meeting about axing of my 🍭 job
Rounded up the kids...
No big sunglasses today...
 
 
At least it's warm....
We did a small shop in Lidl.
Car park was a nightmare to park in and get out of.
The dark clouds are threating us with rain.
I looked at the CD's in Morrisons.
A good song came on, and I sung along with the song, my son said he could hear me in the next aisle....
The song was↓↓↓
I picked up a good CD to play in the Sexy Beast.
My kids asked if I could move up to the 1980's.
"Not just yet, I'm happy with the 50's and 60's"
I told the cashier, she just laughed and felt sorry for my kids having to listen to it... 
The CD got put on, and I sung along with Buddy Holly...
 More exciting tunes to kids to hear tomorrow
  Unpacked the shopping.
Light lunch.
I wasn't such like a hot sweaty 🍅 at  Job 3.
I fear I might be for the chop for this job as well.
(Can't win!)
In need of some Monday Motivation....💗💗
"Alexa, play some Rock 'n' Roll please?"
I need to sing-a-long to get rid of these Monday Blues...

Handcuffs & Babyoil Part 2

The weekend is finally here \o/
I was up early to listen to
" The Sounds of the 60s"
Had a early breakfast...
Once everyone was up....
A little ride out....
 
 
 
 
 Long way down...↓↓↓
It stopped raining.
We went to the Bandstand to celebrate 
the life of Emmeline Pankhurst
 
 
 Our Redditch MP and Redditch Mayor was there.
 They all disappeared to have their photo took.
I waited for them to come back.
 
 We sat on the bench to carrying on listening.
I got chatting to a ex-worker from my time at Fawlty Towers....
Our water Fountain on the Church Green.
While everyone was taking photos, we went to the cafe. Sat on the leather settee, to enjoy a coffee, and waited for everyone to arrive.
 
I chatted to the MP again.
I even got two dvds for 50p
Walked back to the Library..
 
A really nice went past me :)
Chatted with a ex-postie.
A couple sat opposite me.
I recognised the man as my older's son's real Granddad from Kings Norton with his second wife sat with him.
(I haven't spoke to him since 1993 when he chased me around his drive with a hammer, then my boyfriend and his dad was trying to strangle each other on the drive)
The Grandfather is looking more like his son everytime I see him...
Arrived back home before the rain started again...
Sorted out my dad's Birthday cards out for tomorrow.
Had a quick tea as we were going out to a Snooker Awards Evening.
 
 
 Nice cold lemonade.
We had a quiz.
We had our usual name.
Handscuffs & Babyoil.
 At half time we were third.
 Hubby's team won the Divison one championship
 
 His team were Runner's up in a cup match.
 
 
 Nice sunset.
We finished second at the end.
We had a nibble at the buffet.
Gets back home....
Hopefully we are having a much deserved lie-in tomorrow....
