Just Got To Make It Again!

 If you play with anything long enough it will break - Murphy's Law
Welcome to the Hump of the Week 🐫
Breakfast and Brew.
On goes the summer dress.
I had to wear a jacket as it was quite chilly!
Now to leave the house...
I gives hubby a sloppy wet one 💋 before I leaves.
On goes the summer hat and summer coat.
&
Big big sun glasses.
I go and turn on my lights.
No newspapers in the corner shop.
Back to Sexy Beast to get my big stick.
Once I turned on my lights.
I walked down to my spot.
The sun might be out, but it was still a bit chilly.
One car went under my stick..
BOING!
Lots of last minute braking.
At least I made it in one piece.
Now to do the survey of the recreation ground.
More drawing been done.
Hands my form in.
Now to go to the Co-op for my newspaper.
I bump into another Councillor.
He was parked in the car park.
He was about to leave, 
Didn't look left, and nearly drove into a car that was coming into the car park!
Goes into the Co-op to get my newspaper, and finds my favourite coffee, had £3.85 knocked off the price.
One goes in my trolley!
Gets my shopping and back home I go.
 Coffee time.
I puts the green bins out ready to be emptied tomorrow.
Younger son took my bike out for a ride down to Morrisons.
I carried on writing yesterday's blog post.
He came back and it took him over 15 mins to get to Morrisons from here!
Now for a light lunch.
Chopped off some of the cucumber my friend had given me↓
Yum.
I chatted with hubby while he was on dinner break.
Then off I go to do the afternoon shift.
Out comes the Summer coat and summer hat.
&
Big Big Sunglasses
I turned on one set of lights.
Then we walked down to the Charity Shop.
Had a good chat about things.
The upcoming MacMillan Coffee Morning will be having a Bake Off Comp...
Mmmmm wonder what cake I can put in?
(I made the Pigs in Mud cake for the Tardebigge Plant And Food Competition, and I won first prize!)
I said goodbye to the staff in the Charity Shop.
I turned on my lights and walked up the road. 
Met two more friends to have a rabbit with.
I went and got my big stick and went back to have a rabbit with my friends.
Then it time to start.
I said goodbye to everyone.
There was a man sitting on the bench by where I stand, looking at me, and at his phone drinking a bottle of budweiser.
I was asked in the morning to keep an eye on someone until their Nan came to pick them up.She just stood a few yards from me as someone else was sitting on the bench.
I had the normal car driver ignoring my Stop sign. A few boings were given out for it!
Finished in one piece.
I was so hot in my summer coat.
Back home I go.
I had a nice cold latte to cool down to.
Finished writing yesterday's blog post.
I put in tonight's tea.
Both sons are being took out for a meal to celebrate the older son going to Uni on Friday.
Pity we couldn't take him out ourselves.
Hubby comes back and a sloppy wet one 💋
Tea is ready.
Yum
Looked into today's newspaper.
Hubby had to drop off younger son to the meal, as they who was taking them out for meal forgot to pick him up.
When hubby came back, we watched the last episode.
The garden still looking nice at night.
Sleep Tea time.
We were having a early night.
No sign of younger son, hope he has got his key to get in.... ;)

Final morning shift of the week to do...
A few cars had to have a BOING.
It was getting well warm!
Glad I had a bottle of water on me!
Finished in one piece.
Council business time.
Phew it's warm.
Now to nip to Sainsburys.
I met someone from Studley and we had a good yak.
I went into the store, and I got a self service scanner.
It wouldn't scan the milk,
It scanned the milkshake at full price even though it was reduced.
The butter was scanned at full price even though it was knocked down!
Funny Private Eye Front Cover↓
I went to sort out scanning issues.
Then my card was rejected!
Good job I remembered my pin number!
Back to Sexy Beast.

(The other friend will turn up later)
Wished my friend a good weekend and got on with my afternoon shift.
It is that hot, and a couple are walking their poodle in 30c heat!
I kept drinking from my bottle of water.
Car drivers were still stopping in the Keep Clear space, making it difficult to cross everyone over!
Finished in one piece.
Home time.
Jumps into a cold shower when I got back.
Then to enjoy a cold one in the shade!

If he gets it, he is borrowing my bike to get there.
Still warm, still sleeping on top of the duvet....
