Minion With A Dash of Singing!

A leaf it fell upon my foot,
And to move it I was unable,
The leaf was made of solid oak,

The Lollypop Goes Into Storage!

The thing with high-tech is that you always end up using scissors - David Hockney
Welcome to my Breaking Up From Work Thursday 🍭
Breakfast and Brew.
Dressed, with those sexy lumo trousers.
Out of the house I go.
I gave hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I left.
The gates to the Village Hall were locked.
I parked in the nearby car park.
Got my winter coat and summer coat on.
&
Waterproof boots.
Off I went to turn on my light and collect my newspaper on the way back.
Swapped my newspaper for my big stick.

Go and turn on my lights.
Last morning shift of the week \o/
Let's hope it is better than yesterday!
Oh dear, I was wrong!
One woman car driver assumed the traffic in front of her would keep going. They all stopped, and she stopped in the Keep Clear space!
I had to walk in front of her car to cross the kids over. She did say sorry!
The X19 bus had to slam its brakes on or it would have hit my big stick via its windscreen!
Our daily parker parked on the double yellow lines again.
The rain held off until the last 25 minutes of my shift.
Finished in one piece.
Back home I go.
Time for a much needed coffee.
Unloaded the dishwasher.
Wrote yesterday's blog post.
Got in the recycling bins.
Liquid lunch time.
I had a chat with hubby on his lunch break.
Then to do the final shift of the week.
More Bond to listen to....
On goes the winter coat and summer hat.
&
Big big sunglasses.
I put my lights on and carried on down the road.
Sat down, waiting for my friend to received sandwich.
Then I bumped into a good friend who was telling me on her future plans....
(I waved to a fellow Councillor who was sat in his car, looking at me!)
I got to see a friend who is having Chemo at the moment and is having a bad time with it.
(I later learned that someone who went to the same Gingerbread club in the late 1990s, and dated one of my ex-boyfriends was sat at the back of the coffee shop, starring at me!)
Nice display at the front of the flower shop.
Off to the Charity Shop I go.
Great film I found.
I got some more bargains.
I said goodbye to everyone and went to turn on my lights.
I swapped my bargains for my big stick.
Went to the square for a little rabbit...
I wished my friend a good Half Term Holiday.
I was enjoying the rays....
I started my final shift of the week.
The low lying sun was causing a few problems.
At least the cars were stopping on my side of the road.
My other friend appeared at the end of my shift.
He had been to the Aladdin's Cave again,
Where I went last Monday.
He bought yet more stuff from there!
We arranged to meet up next week for a yak, coffee and visit of the Charity shop.
Wished him a good weekend.
Off home I go.
With some more Bond to sing along with.
Empty Sexy Beast of everything to do with the Lollipop 🍭

Added the air freshner to
Sexy Beast.

Then with the news and newspaper review.
