Getting Out In The Sunshine!

"Don't let your sorrow come higher than your knees!" - 
Swedish proverb
 
Welcome to my Saturday 🌟
Brew and hug↑
We had to have crumpets for the time being as we didn't have a enough milk for our porridge.
Dressed.
Now out for part one of our walk↓
We went past my dad's house.
The sold sign is on the board now.↑
Back home.
Back out to drop off son for his boxing lesson.
We go into town.
I went to get my glasses tighted up.
As my glasses like falling down over my nose.
I got chatting to my postie friend.
Once glasses were done.
Back to the car with a much needed coffee.
Picks son up from his boxing lesson.
Back home.
Then back out to get some much needed meat.
Light lunch time↓
