Down Came The Rain!

Flattery hurts no one - so long as you don't inhale -
Adlai Stevenson
Welcome to my Thursday ⛆
Nice hug to start the day 💓
Heardle time!
Heardle 60s:
My son's Heardle answers↓
Breakfast and Brew.
The dress I saw on Sunday.
I found it, ordered it, and it arrived yesterday.
Time to show it off!
Time to leave.
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one.
I go and buy today's newspaper.
Then I put on my summer coat.
On the way to turn on my lights.
Someone was having Sky Glass delivered.
Turns on my lights...
Let's get ready to go to work 🍭
Lots of BOINGs given out.
Few cars had to brake at the last minute.
Those dark clouds starting to appear.
Glad I finished in one piece.
Home time.
I put the coffee maker on.
Then watered all my plants in my garden.
Time for coffee...
Then I found out the paperwork needed for my boss, who is coming out this afternoon for it.
Wrote one blog post before lunch.
Then out to do Part 2.
Puts on my summer coat.
Turns on my lights,
Turns on my lights,
Buys lolly,
Fetches big stick.
Sits in the square to suck on lolly.
One friend arrived.
It started to rain.
We get undercover.
The rain comes down really heavy.
My other friend joins us undercover.
All the mothers going to pick up their kids were getting wet in the rain.
Then the rain finishes five minutes before I was due to start.
I say goodbye to my friends.
My boss arrives.
I gives her my paperwork.
While she fills it in, she sees what I have to put up with.
When she finished with paperwork, she stands there, and watches 3 cars driving straight under my stick.
"Do car drivers do that all the time?"
She asked.
"Yes they do."
At least I finished in one piece.
My boss gives me some information to read.
I say goodbye to her. 
Home time.
In need of a brew.
I put the pies in the oven.
Veg goes in the saucepan.
Hubby has a sloppy wet one when he comes home.
The pie is served.
The kids go off to a Labour Party Meeting.
I look into today's newspaper.

He opened his presents.
Now out to do Part 2.
It looked like rain.
So I put on my winter coat.
Turned on my lights.
Bought a ice ice lolly,
Fetched my big stick,
And sat in the square waiting for my friends to arrive.
None of my friends came.
So I had a chat with the parents instead.
Now to do Part 2.
I had my big stick raised up.
One grey car with it's sunroof open when under the stick, I could have just tapped it to shut it for them....
I'm not quite that nasty just yet!
Someone parks on the double yellow lines so I can't see what is coming up the road!
My friend appeared with his dog with just 10 minutes left of my shift.
More BOINGs given out.
Finished in one piece.
My friend and I walked back to Sexy Beast and had a jolly good rabbit for 30 minutes.
I said goodbye to my friend.
Home I go.
Now to get on to finish the Birthday cake.
Just over an hour.
It's done!
Birthday boy loved it!
Hubby came home and had a sloppy wet one.
Joe came and gave Jack his card and presents.
We thanked Joe for coming.
Hubby went and gone a take-away.
Yummy.
