Dressed.
(Didn't put on the Thermal vest, as it was quite warm!)
Now out of the house in the fresh air!
We parked in the car park.
Nice views
On the way to the Post Office, I noticed a nice bit of fake fur!
I had a good look, putting it back on the head was another story!
Gets the newspaper.
The Writing Group at the Library in June looks interesting↓ 
Goes to the Post Office to renew my Driving License, "Come back after ten", I was told.
Fine, off for coffee we go.
Nice big chair to sit in.
Once we finished, back to the Post Office.
No smiling allowed!!!
Now to look around town.
I did get the nice bit of furry headwear in the end.
I got some items in the sale from The Magicial Store.
Found my shampoo and condition was cheaper in  TK-Maxx.
To pay to get out of the car park has broken down, (Been like that for 6 weeks)
Had to pay at the other car park!
Back home to unload the trolley.
Had a sandwich instead of liquid soup.
Just about to leave the house to do the food shop, when it started to rain!
On goes the rain mac.
Got the normal shopping and got £2 off :)
Back home to unload it all.
More rain coming over? 
My friend popped in for a chat.
I will popping round next week to see her lovely dog and kids.
Tea was put in the oven.

Gotta Keep Searching!

 I have a large seashell collection, which i keep scattered on beaches all over the world. Maybe you've seen it? - Steven Wright
Welcome to my Thursday 🌀
Nice warm hug.
Brew with breakfast.
Thermal vest goes on.
We are expecting strong winds today!
Now out to experience those strong winds..
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one before I leave.
I go and fetch my newspaper before I get changed.
On goes the two winter hats and warm gloves.
The wind is already getting up.
I puts on my lights.
Now for the fun to start....!
Plenty of BOINGs being given out.
Cars not stopping, when I put my stick out!
The wind not being helpfu, being blown about!
I wave to the driver of the Flower lorry.
I finished in piece.
Back home.
Coffee machine put on.
Unloaded dishwasher and loaded it back up.
Coffee time.
I put the soup machine back on.
Now to write yesterday's blog post up to lunch!
Time for a liquid lunch...
My autographed picture was delivered to me.
It is from the actor John De Lancie, who plays Q in Star Trek:Picard in the second season.
Now to order a picture frame for it.
Now off out for part 2.
Big big sunglasses go on.
I put one winter hat and a pair of gloves on.
Puts on my lights.
Now it's rabbit time with my friends.
That wind is getting up!
Time to say goodbye to my friends.
Let's hope some cars stop!
Oh was I wrong to think that!
Just stuck out my big stick a bit in the road, car came up, and drove around it!
No BOINGs given out, as I didn't fancy my big stick flying off!
At least I finished in one piece!
Hometime.
The wind has got to my neighbour's bin↓
Now for a cup of brew.
I got on with making tonight's tea.
Linguine time!
Red onions, garlic, spinach and bacon bits fried and added on the top of it!
Lovely!
Gave hubby a sloppy wet one when he came up.
Dished up the tea.
Then we had to go out and find some fuel.
Nothing at 
Gulf,
Sainsburys,
BP at Bordesley,
Last chance was BP at Woodow.
I got onto the forecourt, the two cars in front moved onto another pump, the Range Rover didn't wait any longer and went.
The Pump I was waiting near had run out of unleaded and diesel, but had some super unleaded left.
I put some in Sexy Beast
The Merc driver in front of me, after 3 attempts of getting cash out of the near-by cash machine, got the money to pay for his fuel.
I paid for my fuel, and went past the empty pump he was at.
His fuel came to £39.71.
Finally got back home with the sun going down.
Now to look into today's newspaper.
