What Did You Call Me?

 Ducking for apples. Change one letter and it's the story of my life - Dorothy Parker
Welcome to the Friday Feeling 🎈
The sun is out.
Heardle Time!
Heardle 60s:
My son's answers:
Time for breakfast and brew.
Dressed.
Now to leave the house.
Dropped off son at work.
Now to visit the Doctors.
I was in there for under 5 minutes.
The Doctor gave me some tablets.
I have to wait for the letter from the hospital.....
Afterwards goes and sees our son at work.
Gets some nice things and enjoyed a coffee.
Then off to Droitwich.
To drop off 5 boxes of books for the Droitwich Lions book Sale.
Good Deed #1 
We decided to visit Bromsgrove and have a look around the Charity Shops.
We parked up.
Looked in one Charity Shop.
The man in charge had changed the CD in the Charity Shop.
The Shadows came on,
My air guitar came out too:
He tried to catch me out with the next song....
"Jimmy Jones & Good Timin' "I said after a few notes came on!
Next Charity Shop, it all kicked off.
But first, I found a good LP↓
I walked to the back of the shop.
An old man on a disability scooter was trying to reverse.
I went, "Bip, Bip,Bip."
"If you think you are being funny, your're not!"He shouted at me.
"Only trying to help!" I shouted back.
"Cheeky Bitch,"He shouted at me in front of everyone.
My husband, said to him,"I beg your pardon!" 
Everyone in the shop stopped and wondered who he was calling that!
I pipped up and said, "Me!"
"No Friday Feeling off him," I said.
Lots of looks at him as he left.
I said to everyone when I left the shop,
"If I ever get that bad, pass me the gun or the pillow!"
Everyone laughed!
On to the next Charity Shop.
Great single I found.
(I already got this one)
Time to go home with the little bargains we got.
Back home.
Light lunch.
The bread tasted yuk!
On the bird table it went.
One bargain went up in the window.
I learnt that Michael Redfern had passed away.
He appeared in the OXO adverts for 16 years.
Here are few of them↓
Tea was put in the oven for later.
Helps write the shopping list out for tomorrow.
Tea is served.
Afterwards a quick look in the newspaper.
UK No.1 on this day in 1965:
The Beatles - Help 
UK No.1 on this day in 1989:
Jive Bunny and the Mastermixers - Swing The Mood
Got the shopping trolley ready for tomorrow's trip to Droitwich.
Is it going to bargains, bargains, bargains?
Sleep Tea time.
Now off to enjoy more Friday Feeling in bed 🎈

Marks Out Of 12!

There are two things in life I like hard and one of them is eggs - Mae West 
Welcome back to the Friday Feeling 🎈
Hug with brew.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
3/4 weather forecasts says Sunny this morning.
1 said rain....
Oh well.
I gave my hubby a sloppy wet 💋 before I left.
Time to get the coat on...
(I put on the Summer one)
Tree Pic.
Turned on my lights and let's get it on!
My boss came down for a catch up on what I had been doing in the 6 weeks holidays.
Blackpool,Farnborough, and Barry Island.
Plus up coming concerts of the Manfreds and Barry Manilow.
One lorry came up the street, no intention of stopping, and I just put my lollypop stick in the middle of the road.It kept going.
It was starting to cloud over....
One customer I crossed over, shouted over the road back to me:
"Is she giving you a mark out of 10?"
I shouted back, "12/12!"
I finished in one piece.
Said goodbye to my boss.
Now home to get changed....
Puts on a nice dress.
One email popped up saying I had used their offer of £3 for 3 issues before, and they won't honour it....
They did say 6 issues for £22.99 instead.
I used there offer back in 2018.
This is the second time I have tried to subscribe to have a magazine off them.
Fine.
Now blocked them from EVER sending me any more Emails of any kind!
Now off to Webbs for a coffee.
First I pop into the shop to get my newspaper.
One look at the dress I'm wearing...
"Off to Webbs are we?"
Speaking of Webbs, I missed out on my B3 space....
Now to coffee, and chat I go...
We had a good chat, coffee and nibble.
Walking through the store...
Sign Christmas is coming...
A Tesla was parked next to Sexy Beast....
Glad it didn't park up like the last time I was here...↓
Listened to some great songs on the way home..
Back home.
Lunch.
I looked at the forecast for this afternoon.
60% chance of rain.
Part 2 of Lollipop.
No sign of rain....
I left my big coat on just in case it does rain like yesterday.
Very hot under the collar!
Cars were actually being good for once and stopping!
I finished in one piece.
The caretaker of the place I have a permit to park were having fun with parents parking their cars in the car park. One turned up, got into her Black 19 plate Range Rover, ignored the caretaker and drove off!
Nice adhesive sticker on her windscreen would make her remember not to park in there in the future!
I drove out, and the rain started again!
Put the tea in the oven for later.
Writes yesterday's blog post.
Gives hubby a wet sloppy 💋 when he comes home.
Tea is served.
Mince, onion, chopped tomatoes, in a warm pitta.
On the way to drop off son for his football match.
I couldn't believe what  has happened to my late dad's house.
This was back in 2019↑↑
The garage,kitchen entension, and downstairs toilet has gone......!
Bet my late dad's gums have been going watching that!
Back home.
Picked son back up, then we went to pick up some Magic bags.
I looked into today's newspaper.
José Monserrate Feliciano García , better known simply as José Feliciano, is a Puerto Rican musician, singer and composer, best known for many international hits, including his rendition of the Doors' "Light My Fire" and the best-selling Christmas single, "Feliz Navidad."
