After I turned on my lights.

Time to walk down to my spot!

Now for the fun to start!

One Black BMW raced past me at about 60 m.p.h and came back down the road at the same speed!

Considering it is a 30 m.p.h zone!

As I was going back to Sexy Beast, I got chatting to some parents I cross over.

"Are you going home for a hot coffee?" They asked.

"Going to change out of this coat, and have a browse in the charity shop." I replied.

"See you later," They said.

I got changed and walked down to the Charity Shop. I got a nice soup bowl for hubby

"Fat chance of that,"Replied one.

Then I sang the following to them as they started to walk off:

"Relax, don't do it
When you wana go to it
Relax, don't do it"

They thought it was funny ;)

I wished the parent who lost her dad just before a happy weekend in the circumstances.
